Why didn't that scene happen in a more cramped area... I actually feel it would be interesting and makes it feel a bit more dangerous. Everything in PT is open and spacious... I miss my claustrophobic areas on the Death Star.
Yeah, I've gone back and forth on that issue. It is a long time but it's the most natural place to go back to me... It's almost as if Obi-wan gives us permission to go back... Does that make sense?
ID had the first transition during the twin suns scene which was actually a beautiful transition when I tried it myself... What do you think works best?
Oh, and I wasn't really getting ill about no responses. Just making sure people didn't forget about me. lol
Yep... You're right. None of it makes sense.
Sigh.... Back to the Animated thread....
And a hush fell over the crowd?

Strictly speaking Dooku was as manipulated as the rest of the Jedi.
So really Obi-Wan should say something like, "We have all been deceived, even Dooku. Palpatine was behind everything, including the war. He is the Sith Lord we were looking for and now Anakin has become his apprentice."
I think that's vague. I mean, you could say that as the movie is already. I mean, Dooku was deceived. And he lost his head for it. The line really needs to somehow emphasize that Dooku was never evil.
I mean one line is better than no line... It's just frustrating... Lucas had a golden opportunity to have some fun there... All the pieces were there, it would have been EASY..... But no....
And we are left with only the pieces that were there after he got through with it... Which isn't much.
Further proof that Lucas didn't think about OT before writing PT....
I think I want to try to write this.
I use to be on board with the idea of Dooku just being a rogue Jedi... Well, I still love the idea...I even went as far as doing lightsaber tests. http://vimeo.com/7070492
But through my tinkering I decided there isn't enough to back that idea up. There should be a "Aha" moment where the Jedi realize Dooku was right all along, but there isn't... The only way this TRULY works is if this scene exists. And by forcing it like I was trying to do only makes the Jedi look even stupider that they NEVER acknowledge the truth about Dooku. Am I wrong?
And you've no doubt seen some flashframes and other issues... I know about these and if I continue with this have every intention of correcting.
Here's part 4: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gpL6W5w1l0
This is where I need feedback I feel.. This to me, is where this edit really has to work... If it doesn't. It needs to be either changed or maybe this edit just isn't meant to be.
Feedback?
What if Beru is Obi-wan's sister?
I always thought it would be interesting to see some of bit characters from OT have larger roles in the PT... So that when you saw them in the OT, there would be a "cool" moment knowing the history and all.
To get things back on track.... Any updates?
And I give you part 3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_geuOkI6ks
Good.... Uploading part 3 now.
Anyone have any thoughts?
Well, the reason I went all Christopher Nolan on ANH is because it takes a good while until we get to the first PT flashback. I didn't want my audience to zone out of the movie because they've seen it all a thousand times. So, the swapping around was a way to MAYBE keep it fresh feeling.
If it's not doing this, feel free to say so.
Here is part 2... Sorry it's been taking so long.
I've said this before, but I always thought that Bail needed a make-over. I always expected him to be the new Han Solo of this trilogy? Why, you ask? Well, think about Han... Who falls for him? Leia.... Why does she fall for him? Maybe he reminds her of her father. We've always heard it say that a woman will marry someone like her father.
Always thought it would be interesting if Bail was this reluctant prince that left Alderaan during his father's rule to go have adventures. But then a Jedi named Obi-wan finds him to bring him back to his now ailing father in the midst of a new crisis involving the mandalorians. Rough I know, but it screams Star Wars to me.
Is it bad that I'm not even excited about the blurays? I mean, honestly, it will probably be the same crap for the most part. I won't even be surprised if it has the same horrible white balance issues that DVD's had.
The only thing I'm somewhat interested in, is the possibility for new scenes and the new TPM Yoda. That's about it.
Sorry, I've been MIA lately. Things are looking better and better here, Bob! Fantastic work.
The Dagobah deal would be amazing, but really hard to work out, unless Bob has access to Adobe After Effects CS5... =)

I don't care who started what and who said what about whose cocks, but lets just all agree that we all have cocks enough to keep us satisfied without having to get mad at one another. (Either your own, or someone else's, take your pick)Second best statement of the thread.
Haha... What was the first?
I don't know. I mean, it sounds good.... But in another movie. One of the many problems of the PT is that it was overly political, and with this, I feel it might be a lot of the same. The political drama was almost a character in of itself when it should merely act as a backdrop.
We didn't ask too many questions during the OT, like why are they fighting? It wasn't overly complicated. I mean the bad guy wore black. It's classic style storytelling and I feel that should have been maintained in the PT. Come up with your backdrop, and let be that and nothing more.
I could be wrong, but that's how I feel at the moment.
Crap... I'm missing everything.
Patience... Had to format my PC last night... NO worries, all files were backed up.... But I'm having to get everything back in order.
And I'm not sure about the crawl either.. I to think it needs work... Again, I stress, this is a workprint... There are glitches. =) I just need to make sure it flows for the most part.
Well, you also haven't seen the rest. I feel like everything is explained. I hope so anyway. I was simply trying to make some things fresh for those who know Star Wars so well. Still working on part 2 and hopefully then some things will be clearer.
Thanks for the comments!
