I wouldn’t mind that approach. I mean … he wants her to join him, and to go bad, you need that whole anger stuff by poking the bear.
Any idea how we could give Han and Leia something to do in RotJ?
Wdym they had a lot to do, that shield generator didn’t self-destruct
It’s not that they didn’t do anything per se, it’s just that their development arcs are the weakest in ROTJ, particularly Han’s.
Han was definitely the weakest. If doable, I would remove his jealousy thing with Luke and Leia on “Teddy Bear Acceptance Night” and also cut off the line about not getting in the way of the two at the end of the battle. Felt very off, didn’t make sense and out of character.
Give Luke a green milk mustache in TLJ and a blue one in ANH.
Add a “Got Milk?” logo on the bottom right of the screen every time Luke has the 'stache.
Add it as a sticker on the bottle/canteen he uses.
I think this was mentioned, but using alolan Vulpix and/or Ninetails to replace the crystal fox things would be good. Oh, and there needs to be one that “transforms” into a Zoroark when it trips.
Sorry, I am terrible at writing. In regards to using Hayden as a force ghost over shaw, I would use an older looking hayden’s face to replace hayden’s “young” face as it is right now (AKA Shaw’s ghost replaced.) As for a “rational” the view can view Shaw’s Vader’s look and sound as a result of the “lava bath” one why he looks (even sounds?) different then Hayden.
So in my mind, having an older looking hayden at the age he would have been at the time of ROTJ instead of his “young” appearance. One can think when a jedi turns to a ghost they don’t get whatever ailments they had at the time … Obi wan isn’t just a floating top half when he got sliced, Yoda doesn’t have his cross eye, etc. etc. So we have older looking hayden, how he would have looked at that time of his death without the physical ailments he had.
Of course, this is if an edit is trying to, more or less, to use keep things “connected” with the PT on having Hayden’s force ghost at ROTJ. Although I understand the change Lucas made because of the PT and trying to connect it all together, but having him young at that time just didn’t make too much sense. Now that time has passed and we have Hayden closer to the age of Anakin at that time, it would visually make more sense using him NOW to replace young Hayden at ROTJ.
Essentially someone who can do a deep fake use some photos of Hayden right now with a little added aging and he would fit the look as in “How he would look uncooked by lava as a ghost.”
I mean, I personally don’t mind unmasked vader looking and sounding different then older hayden since if you look at burn victims after they “heal” or get transplants, they look totally different. Bacta aint going to get you back 100% after a lava bath.
Kenobi hands Luke Qui-Gon’s lightsaber, recoloring it to green throughout ANH and ESB.
His saber he constructs in ROTJ Is blue.
As for Kajimi I remembered some talk about it … man so much time ago … In my mind, at least, to help it feel a little more “natural” with the concept is not to make it full on rebellion/battle since it would quite feel right with the surrounding scenes that is is some kind of battle scene, but rather, more like a riot.
Why would trooper be knocking on doors and people being afraid? Why would the Poe and Zorri scene be so … “calmish” when they are in the middle of a battlefield? That’s why a riot, or at least something on those lines would be a bit more natural and flow a bit better in the surrounding scenes.
MR: Good to have you back and hope you can get a new computer! I know trolls and online stuff can get tiring, which it is good to take a break from time to time or whatever needed!
Thanks for the update Hal on the state of things. So it’s simple, we just need to make Faraday work all night, since sleep is over rated. Also, just hunt down Jonh and convince him actual work, providing for family, etc. is obviously less important than clipping Luke’s hair. Oh, and Nev to work. My goodness! /S
(Of course joking, I just wish I had the tools and the know how to do anything.)
On the one hand, take your time and make it right Addy,
On the other hand … I want it now! lol.
Keep it up, it’s looking so good and I already love your ESB:R which is my personal definitive edition of it that film. This will be the next.
So smooth and wonderful! Amazing with the lightsaber transitions. Perfect!
This works too. Really good.
Sounds like she says Im a Jedi too, so at least for me … it sounds fine. As for any seams … I am not hearing it. Lol. I guess Im easy to please on this one?
Can one repost the scene prior to the “added” lightsaber sound. Im curious to “hear” the seam (if i can) and it could be good to brain storm what kind of sounds to use to mask it.
(Just have Palps say SENATE! that was cut out from Hals LOE 😉)
Sounds great!
How is the “I am a Jedi” line coming? Has it gotten to a finished state yet? Very excited for that one!
That seems to be the next audio hurdle to pass. For my pathetic ears, it sounds good the latest rendition. I think there was an idea to use a lightsaber ignition sound to help mask it.
Sounds great to me bro.
<insert ROTJ celebration scene>
Anyway, the Leia scene Sherlock did works well and I’m thinking the “end of her Jedi training” is sounding good. Really liking these adjustments.
As for the other topic with 3P0 … not sure there’s much to do since it’s such a mess, direction wise. “Such a noble sacrifice scene … let’s make a joke out of him for while after.”
I like MR, he’s in my good book and want him to stay around.
Agreed, you scruffy nerf herder.
Dang Sherlock … that clip works really well … and is a simple “fix.” Sometimes it’s the simple things. Good work mate.
I think the main problem with 3PO’s memory wipe is that the film itself doesn’t even know how it wants to play it. On one hand, they frame it as a touching farewell/sacrifice (“You know the odds better than any of us.”…“Taking one last look, sir, at my friends.”) But then every other moment, they turn it into a farce. (“I’ve just thought of something else we can try-”…“Whoever this Chewie person is, this is madness.”…“How dare you? We only just met!”
So half of the memory wipe stuff is dramatic, and half of it makes 3PO the butt of the joke; if we want to commit to a tone here, we’d basically have to cut half of the references to the memory wipe either way.
I agree with that thought, it was handled so … randomly. I am not sure what can be “realistically” done to help, asides from removing the actual dramatic stuff since throughout the movie the crew/movie treats him as a joke after that … so trim one dramatic thing or trim a bunch of joke stuff? Lol what a mess.
Though Hal’s approach to remove the memory backup does help maybe to actually HAVE stakes and is probably all that can be really done. I honestly think JJ thought “Hey let’s have at least this serious moment that’s undeserved, but the rest of it is a joke since we will restore his memory anyway.”
Honestly, if I have my wife watch this, she wouldn’t notice anything. I agree as me being so picky I can “hear” it needs a little work at the beginning, but if it was at the theatre … probably wouldn’t notice it.
(Though with editing, I’m totally anal about it. Lol)
I was supposed to return to work last Saturday but 80% of my staff caught Covid from Fridays event and we had to close before I even got to run my event. I can’t do anything until I can return to work and afford a new computer unfortunately.
Yeah, we all used video co pilot plug-in. It’s awesome but a nightmare to get all the layer effects looking good as it’s a frame by frame task plus animating masks. I can’t even open after effects to give someone my settings. Sorry!
I appreciate those getting in touch and asking after me but life really sucks right now.

Star Trek theme, change the crawl from english to Klingon.
Nice! Can’t wait to take a look since i did notice the green tint.
Now to add a whilhem scream to finish … 😉
