The theatrical colors of the Star Wars trilogy
Time

Maybe finding a shot/frame with as many colors as possible (I like the falcon cockpit wide shots for this) from the print-based LDs, you could average/median them and see what results you get. Might help remove the inconsistencies.

I still think one of our scripting/programming geniuses should look into writing a mode average plugin for avisynth or matlab, as the most commonly occurring pixel is more likely to be correct as opposed to the one in the middle or a combination of those available.

BD-Rebuilder: Multiprocess for SD?
Time

Hi, I’m looking to run multiprocess on SD footage and for some reason, BD Rebuilder isn’t letting me (HD runs 4-way x264 just fine). My account has been waiting for approval on Doom9 for months, so I can’t post this in bug reports on the BD Rebuilder forum section. If someone could do this for me, that’d be great. (Log posted below)

Name EPISODE VIII Thread

To fit with the Star Wars naming scheme, I think they should have gone with “The Last OF THE Jedi”.

Beyond that, I’m meh.

I think I’d like that more, they could even drop the first ‘the’

“Last of the Jedi”

But I suppose that’s too similar to “Return of the Jedi.”

I do dig the red logo, though.

I’m liking the Red Logo as well.

I think the placement of “the” is what’s bugging me

The - Last - Jedi is most similar to The - Phantom - Menace
Last - of - the - Jedi would be too similar to RotJ, and recalls Attack of the Clones.
Neither of these should be the films most brought to mind when reading the new title.

However, with the exception of Episode One, (and ANH, which doesn’t contain “the”), the titles tend to refer to topics without descriptors, ie:

Attack of THE CLONES
Revenge of THE SITH
THE EMPIRE Strikes Back
Return of THE JEDI
THE FORCE Awakens

I felt something similar with the crawl in The Force Awakens.
Every other crawl was very formal, giving the impression of galactic importance and typically referring to characters by their whole names. TFA broke with that, referring personally to “Luke” and “Leia” repeatedly. This gave the story more of a shared family memory feel, as opposed to an important chapter in a history book.

… Hopefully that makes sense.

STAR WARS: EP V &quot;REVISITED EDITION&quot;<strong>ADYWAN</strong> - <strong>12GB 1080p MP4 VERSION AVAILABLE NOW</strong>
Time

They can say all they’d like. I wish Ady was less modest and would let us donate for a top of the line laptop rather than one that just meets his needs.

Honestly, I don’t know his living situation, but if he has any space for it, I think it would be best if we all just pitched in for a work shed where he can build and film.

I really liked the fix of Adywan matching up the Death Star plans to Episode II. Since Star Wars Revisited is my definitive Episode IV, I hope one day someone somewhere decides do a little tweak to the Death Star plans of Rogue One so that the movies match up senselessly.

Lol Just made my Christmas 😜
