I can't believe the "final" workprint I have is from a year and a half ago. So much has changed with the project!
Question about the workprint... If that had been the final cut; would you be happy?

I cannot believe I have followed this for 4 years already. I am still as excited as I was on day one. Keep up the good work Ady. I look forward to finally seeing your version of ESB as well as the other movies in the saga.
Ditto.
Right. I like how he edited the sequence right before Anakin and Padme leave Naboo to go find his mother. It flows very smoothly and seems more natural. And the music doesn't suck either.

I've always loved that idea of the Cutters for Padme being alive.
What he said.
Thanks for the kind words. I don't plan on going anywhere. I still have a strong passion to see these movies fixed.
I love fanediting too. It's a great exercise; and if I gained anything, it was more time to play. I learn something every time I attempt a fan edit.
One day, I'll have a release for you all. I'm not sure I could stand not to try my hand at it again.
Wow, he had some great ideas didn't he?
Or just post them on vimeo.com
Thanks for your efforts. I miss SSWR and his work here!
I've tried everything I can think to try. It's the strangest thing. Like someone came in and formatted my drives....
Anyway, long story, short.... I'm calling it. Redemption as I knew it is dead for the time being. Maybe it will come back in a similar or revised form. But this one is gone. Thanks again to those who were interested.
Not sure how that happened... Anyway, I thought it was an interesting piece of information.
Actually it would be best if all those discussions stayed here. It's all related, and multiple threads are unnecessary.
It will remain a dream:
Like another said, I may be missing context, but I feel like I'm watching a tv series and this video is a "This is what happened last week" montage.
Again, i may not have necessary context. If you like what you have keep going. Maybe we'll all get it later.
Still no luck.
What program did you use? Great work? Wanna redo the prequels? =) Like, COMPLETELY REDO THEM! =)
I'm a bit late... but wow, what a difference... By streamlining the lightsaber fight with the fact that the ship is getting blown away gives the scene some tension and sense of urgency. Very well done. However, my only real change would be to cut Palpatine's "Good, Anakin!" and just have him simply cut his head off. Not make it obvious that Palpy is pulling the strings. I actually think all reference to Palpatine being evil should be removed, so that when he reveals his evil side it's abrupt.. if that's even possible. Otherwise, wow!
I've tried a few. I have no idea what happened, but I'm pretty sure I'm not getting it back.
Well how do I unhide it?
I would LOVE to know... The drives work still.. I can open them... Just empty.
Life sucks....
Not really sure how this happened. No one is taking ownership, but I've lost everything on this edit aside from a few rendered clips.
Everything else, project files, effects work, EVERYTHING has been deleted. The rendered stuff was on my main drives, but my externals are just...gone. I'm sorry for those of who were looking forward to this... It's just gone, and YES my heart is breaking. I was really in love with this cut, and DID. SO. MUCH. WORK.
Not sure I'll have the heart to try again. You may not see me around here for awhile. But rest assured this is killing me far worse than any of you feel about it.
Thanks for the encouragement! Still plugging along!
I should have said "visual examples".
I never had a problem with the death star control room with the exception of the obvious TV switcher that's in a couple shots... (Which I removed in my cut.) But I'm up for some visual ideas.
I was hoping for a year ago!
However, it will be soon.... Very soon! I hope in the next couple of weeks honestly... And I hope that's at the latest!

And you know what, damn it all, throw Padme in there to.
Poor girl either dies of a "broken heart" or (what will be in my edit) doesn't die on-screen. And then she gets a small reference in the final film?? Poo-poo. Have her next to Anakin. Maybe make her look a little bit older, I dunno. It feels wrong, but it also feels very right.
I agree! Everyone should be there!
I think there were some Muppets in Jedi, right?

A nice opportunity to show a grungy place would have been in the Ep II cantina, but it still seemed too fancy and fun. Nothing ever breaks down in the PT.
I hope I fixed this in my edit...
