i proposed in the radical prequels thread to have the crawl text replaced with something like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HyE1V6Ac49Q&feature=related though obviously withought the moving background and perhaps the voice over intro could be something from Ep III (perhaps Obi-Wan/Yoda/Qui-Gon saying something that wouldnt spoil the Darth Vader/Lukes Father angle) and maybe having instead of the destruction of Krypton it could be something else (Jedi Temple or Anakin burning up, or something)


though i admit this would be very plagiarist and perhaps too un-starwars and hard to do

 here is a rough mockup that worked on for the past three days (the music is temp)

Gotta give you credit for that one. Not too shabby. I really don't care to see it in a Star Wars film, but for the sake of just doing it, it's cool.

I always liked how star wars left their credits at the end of the film. I wish more movies would adopt this idea actually. The credits too often pull me out of the movie.

There will always be bits that people don't like in any movie. If i tried to do an edit that would suit everyone then there would be thousands of different versions of ANH:R out there.

If someone wants to do it then fair enough but i won't be having anything to do with it or offering any help because i have too much on my plate at the moment and i need to finish ESB:R as soon as i can

This is why I always say if you don't like it, edit it yourself.

SW Episode III - Reign of the Dark Side (* unfinished project *)

I keep hearing it's a giant leap for Anakin to kill kids.... No it isn't.... He did already.... He killed innocent women and children in AOTC... It's not leap.... He's been in the dark side already. He's been freaking saturated in the dark side like a pig sitting in it's own feces. But that sucks too for the plot. We wanted to see a fall, and Anakin is on his face in the first scene. Brilliant.

I know this is probably the wrong thread for this kinda talk.... And while I appreciate the work, J.... It's just sooo busy. It's so busy that I don't focus on what I should be focusing on... Mt attention should be on Obi-Wan but I'm busy watching all the Christmas lights. Does that make sense?

No, this is the right place to discuss. I know what you are talking about, it does look a bit busy........I could try and tone it down...perhaps replacing the column with a glow that pulsates......dunno.....but remember this is a radical ideas thread....just a cooking pot for ideas.....I'll try and realise your ideas.

 

The tractor beam changes don't bother me so much as it's more of a enhanced version of what is already there.

It's the little abrupt things that pop up here and there that cause your eyes to go to them. If it was a David Blaine show, maybe I could understand. My point is simply, if you're going to enhance; do it in such a way that it doesn't distract from the story.

However, I have been impressed with what you've been able to accomplish. Would love to see you take a stab at a edit.. And maybe that's you're intention?
