Well, probably not. I just watched the clip on Youtube and it’s more animated than I remembered.
I never knew Adywan pulled his Alderaan explosion from something else-it worked out great. I haven’t watched it in a while, but I remember thinking way back when that the planet explosion in Titan AE would be a good substitution for Alderaan.
It’s obvious, after Vader died Luke high-tailed back to the throne room to retrieve his saber, then ran back to the landing bay to escape.
Duh.
The reactor was destroyed with torpedoes, Lando did that-that’s why he gets credit for destroying the second Death Star.

I don’t have a picture of this right now, but after Vader throws the emperor down the shaft, it’s pretty obvious his hand is underneath his too-long sleeve. You can even see his wrist is bent. It’s a small thing, but one that bugs me every time I watch the movie.
You can even notice Vader’s too-long sleeve with the wrist bent afterwards in the shot when Luke pulls him away from the shaft.
Luke had the same problem in Empire
Consider taking the battle scar off the full size AT-ST before the ground battle begins.
I guess I’ll have to be the one to step up and suggest the one thing everyone here really wants to see but is too embarrassed to openly ask for.
Please swap Jake Loyde for Hayden Christensen as the Anakin force ghost?
You’re welcome.
As far as the shuttle, I assume Adywan is just going to change the shuttle the rebels have. Make that one more like the shuttle in Rogue One-that would be less shots to alter. Vader and the Emperor’s shuttles would remain the same.
When Luke is hiding from Vader under the throne dais, the consoles he’s using to conceal himself don’t even reach to the ground. When he screams “No!” he’s right out in the open like Vader couldn’t see him. there needs to be more of a maze of consoles and equipment underneath the throne.
Camo armor would be neat to see. I’d much rather see a K2-SO somewhere in the background. And maybe one of the Scout Troopers have a female voice.
Max Rebo never bothered me. I just figured his alien species’ physiology just happened to parallel that of a bad puppet from Earth.
When Luke and Vader are talking on the dock for the AT-AT, consider having a faint sound in the background of the AT-AT walking away. It’s a great personal conversation between the two and the way the troops walked away it feels like they are just hanging out in the open AT-AT. You’d have to remove the head of the walker in the very last shot of the scene.
Also, I know some think Revisited shouldn’t change to match the prequels, but when Vader says “Obi-Wan once thought as you do”, is a glaring discrepancy. Obi-wan never once gave Anakin a chance to turn from the dark side. It would be so much better if he said, “Your mother once thought as you do,” because Padme really did ask Anakin to leave with her.http://boards.theforce.net/threads/obi-wan-once-thought-as-you-do.22740126/
Thanks for the link. But even after reading through it, the line still doesn’t jive. If the line could be switched to “Your mother,” it would be so much better for the moment. I don’t think Vader feels like he let Obi-Wan down because he believes he’s right. But being forced to acknowledge his last moment with Padme to Luke would have to sting.

There is a flipped shot right before Luke Crashes his speeder, his glove and bullet hole on his helmet are on his left side. Also, I like the idea of Luke training with Yoda for a time before ROTJ, but the Crawl would be tricky. You would need to not only mention that though Luke is becoming more powerful with his training, but somehow fit in that the 800 year old Jedi Master’s health is rapidly deteriorating. Also, all shots of his gloved hand would have to be fixed.
I only have one suggestion for this, but I think it improves the film greatly:
Start the film with Luke on Dagobah
It just makes so much more senseDo you have friends?
How long would you let them hangin on a wall? Weeks? Month? If they survive that long at all.Luke does not need training to face Jabba. He wasn’t ready for Vader, but he was already very good. All he needs is to recover, and come up with a plan.
BTW ain’t all rebel plans seem completely stupid?
In Rogue One, they fly into an Imperial installation with zero planning, and as a result they die. Then a whole fleet follows with zero planning, and most of them die.
In TNH they attack the Death Star with 30 fighters (lol) trying to hit a small hole.
4 ships survive. One of them is not a rebel ship.
In ESB they fight AT-ATs with snowspeeders, that have no chance to even scratch them with their lasers. If not for Luke, Rogue Squadron dies, and every single Imperial soldier goes home without a scratch.
And in ROTJ the whole Alliance is walking into a trap.
Safe to say, they are really not that good at planning.Fair point. I guess my thinking is that it resolves the coincidence that Yoda does right when he shows up.
Blah blah blah, the Force. It’s the answer for everything. 😉
That’s not how the force works.
I do like the idea of blowing out Vader’s chest plate.
It doesn’t need to be graphic or over done, but maybe throw in a couple limbs dismembermets here and there when Luke is going to town on the skiff and sail barge.
I’ll have to watch it again, but I think the planetary shield in Rogue One was only visible within the shield-gate.
The PT should have been made to match the OT and the OT shouldn’t be altered to match that crap. That crap should be altered to match the OT.
This times 1,000,000
The only thing I can think of that was switched in Revisited to match the PT was the Death Star Plans- and I liked that enhancement a lot. Plus that is something Adywan said he’s changing back anyway.

I was a big fan of the work done on ANH:R and ESB:R (except for reverting Bobbas voice, and I will fight to the death over that 😄)One could make the argument that Boba wanted to form his own persona, and not live in the shadow of the clones that were in his “father”'s image, so he adopted a different voice.
Accents are formed from where you live, Boba didn’t grow up where his father lived.
But he “grew up” to an extent with Jango at camino. His father had an accent as he raised him “fairly briefly” so he too would develop that accent. Also, if he was ever around any of the other clones, then there would be more sources of the accent around him.
He was only like 9 years old. I had family move to Texas, and a year later they already had a southern draw. After Jango died Boba bounced around all over the galaxy. He most likely would have lost the accent.

SketchCraft Podcast Ep. 72 - Empire Strikes Back Revisited-
More than likely it was just intended it to be one big planetary shield, and it just wasn’t shown correctly with the rebel hologram. You could still have a shield gate for access to Endor.
When Luke looks out the window from the Death Star, the barricade of Star Destroyers positioned to keep the rebels from escaping doesn’t seem to cover much area. Even from Lando’s view when he’s looking at the Star destroyers up close it looks like he has plenty of open space below to escape. The rebel ships could simply fly up or down to get away. I always thought it would be advantageous for Admiral Ackbar to watch Wrath of Kahn, where Spock explains space is three-denominational. Moving the space battle closer to Luke’s window and filling the entire screen with Star Destroyers would show that the rebels were trapped with nowhere to go.
Also, this is something blatant that will probably be fixed without me mentioning it, but there is a shot on the speeder bikes where Luke is talking but not saying anything. It looks like a re-use of the shot where he tells Leia “Stay on that one, I’ll take these two.”
On a side note, I have tried to find the forum for the original Star Wars: Revisited with no luck. If it is still available, could someone PM me the link? Thanks.
I love how it’s literally two threads down. 😉
Yeah, with the tittle of the thread I thought it was only for the upcoming HD version so I didn’t pay it any mind. I really did waste a lot of time searching for this.
I just donated $100. Best of luck.
I didn’t read through all 14 pages so some of these ideas on my wishlist may have been already been suggested.
*The shield generator is on the Endor Moon, so maybe on wide space shots add the planet Endor behind the moon.
*If you are adding female rebel pilots, consider re-voicing a stormtrooper, or better yet a biker scout, with a woman’s voice. I wanted to suggest that for ESB:R but it was too late.
*Would also love to see a shield aperture similar to Scarif on the Endor Moon.
*A shot with Tie-Strikers patrolling Endor.
*When you re-do the rebel hanger, a snowspeeder tucked away in a corner half covered with a tarp would be a nice tie in to ESB. Colonial Viper would be a cool Easter egg.
*Shots of rebel gunners in the Millennium Falcon.
*See different angles of the Death Star
*fix noticeable back seam on Ewok’s costume
