I was having an okay day today, until I saw this:

Bix went back for B2 and they are now living somewhere safe - and will see out the Galactic Civil War. That is the only way I can struggle through with that!

Otherwise, it is this all over again… 😢
 

 
I also got sent this 2 minute montage youtube video which somehow resulted in a lot of dust suddenly being in the room where I was located: My Love, you’re sleeping now | Andor - by ‘Star Wars Alert’ 😢.

Original Trilogy vs The Prequels: inconsistencies, retcons, plot holes and discrepancies...
Time

VegetableMan said:

Mocata said:

True, however, I think that quote is simply being used as a bullet point heading. In 1977 Vader was not Anakin so the problem is a post ESB one. Obi-wan isn’t shocked to see his friend on the Death Star because his old pupil was always just Darth Vader. Once he’s changed to be Luke’s father in 1980 there are more gaps to fill. Obviously there have been further retcons since and they meet in a TV series.

I don’t think the quote was simply being used as a bullet point, as OP made a specific entry for it. Point 14 already addressed what you’re saying about Obi-Wan and Vader, so there was no need to add point 15 unless it was to talk about that particular quote.
And since I’ve already seen the quote used incorrectly a few times (for example, I remember seeing people use it to justify Obi-Wan and Vader meeting in the Kenobi show, because “how could Obi-Wan know Vader’s more machine than man at the beginning of ANH?”), I just wanted to point it out.
By the way, I’m not trying to defend the many inconsistencies that exist between the OT and PT, it’s usually the thing that annoys me the most about the franchise!

The quote was indeed used as a bullet point, as far as I can remember (it was written / compiled some time ago) 😉.

The intent / context was ‘how does Obi Wan know Anakin is Vader’ and the evil and twisted exploits being carried out by Vader. It wasn’t meant as a literal Kenobi comparison quote from ROTJ - because as everyone knows… Kenobi has already fought him on the first Death Star (though as Mocata stated above, at the time of Star Wars '77, Anakin and Vader were indeed two completely separate characters; I never like to miss a relevant opportunity to bring that up). 👍

I probably shouldn’t have used a literal ROTJ quote for that bullet point if it somehow led people to mistakenly jump on that - seemingly the context and relevance of that bullet point post got lost in using that ROTJ quote to try and illustrate that aspect of the actual topic; plus the ‘best guess’ scenario as Obi-Wan may have heard news and rumours about Vader and his exploits whilst living in hiding - yet was unable to do anything about it. My apologies for any confusion.

It is also probably worth remembering this is an ‘unfinished draft’ - as stated in the opening sentence of the thread (and it was really never finished; only really being posted ‘as is’) - which is also highlighted later in the thread, too.
 

VegetableMan said:

This isn’t the first time I’ve seen someone complaining about that.

It really isn’t ‘complaining’ to chronicle and highlight issues that fans had with the disconnects and issues between the Original Trilogy and the Prequels, is it?

Hope you enjoyed the rest of it - if there are any issues with the other categories please let me know. 👍

Andor creator reveals scrapped K-2SO ‘horror movie’ episode

Tony Gilroy explains the ditched origin story and why it was scrapped.

https://ew.com/andor-creator-reveals-scrapped-k2so-horror-movie-episode-11728167
 

“Dan Gilroy wrote an amazing, entirely self-contained episode that was episode 209,” Gilroy reveals, referring to his brother and Andor writer. “It was an amazing episode that was like a horror movie.”

So what exactly happened in this scrapped K-2SO horror movie episode that was originally slated to be episode 9 of season 2? “It was the K2 story,” Gilroy explains. “They had to bring this huge ugly tanker ship to Yavin, and there was a KX unit that was trapped inside there hunting. It was sort of like a monster movie with K2 on it. It was really cool.”

As for why the entire episode never made it to the filming stage, it came down to a matter of economics. “We could not afford to do it,” sighs Gilroy. “It was made clear that it was out of the range, so we had to abandon that and consolidate things.”

and later in the article…

“We made as many concessions as we could, but it was still a huge gamble on their part to keep going and still a huge ask. So thank you, Disney, and thank you Lucasfilm. It was lot of tough conversations and a lot of anxiety, but really, in the end, they really backed our play.”

 
^ the full article is very much well worth a read - especially on the changing economics for the Andor series between Seasons 1 & 2.

GlastoEls said:

Entered the ballot (BFI Member) so here’s hoping!

Good luck to the pair of you - hope you’re both successful. Please keep us posted how you get on with it. 👍
 

The whole film festival looks really intriguing and if it anything like their previous film festivals you’re hopefully in for a treat. The BFI certainly know how to put on a good show - and their love of film and respect for film fans really comes across.

Even their old outdoor film screenings are something else - and so much thought and work goes into them.

 
 


 
 

Ep. 126 - Inside the BFI National Archives - Film on Film Festival - Special Episode : from the Filmumentaries Podcast.

https://podcasts.apple.com/ae/podcast/126-inside-the-bfi-national-archives-film-on-film/id1522552119?i=1000706833240
 

The blurb: For this early release of the podcast, I’m taking you behind the scenes at the BFI National Archive in Berkhamsted. The reason for the early drop? Tickets for the BFI’s excellent Film on Film Festival go on sale to the public tomorrow, 9th May 2025, and I wanted to give you a bit of insight into what makes this event so special. The Film on Film Festival runs from the 12th to the 15th of June and is dedicated entirely to screenings on physical film – from 35mm to 16mm, and even nitrate. It’s a rare opportunity to experience films as they were originally shown, in all their analogue glory. While at the archive, I spoke with several of the experts who help make the festival possible and who work daily to preserve the history of cinema. You’ll hear from:

James Bell – Senior Curator of Fiction and Programme Director, Film on Film Festival
Chris Stenner – Film Laboratory Lead
Sonia Genaitay – Curatorial Archivist
Martin Coffill – Projectionist and QC
David Jones – Film Scanning Lead

A huge thanks to Kieron Webb and Sarah Bemand for organising the day. It was a real privilege to explore the archive, meet the people who keep the machines running and the prints in circulation, and to share it all with you here. If you’re attending the festival on the 12th, please do let me know and be sure to say “hi”.’ - Jamie Benning.

Last night’s episodes were amazing. I know that is the word going around online as well. Just… wow.

Compelling, wasn’t it? I was glued to the screen for all 2.5 hours; the stories, immersion, tension, build-ups, acting, monologues, costuming, action sequences, payoffs, the unpredictability, the surprises… as well as the usual high-end standards of direction, cinematography, editing, and sound… the whole range of emotions… it was exhausting to watch - in such a great enveloping manner.

The whole series has been a joy to experience - and feel like a big kid again in waiting impatiently until next week’s finale.

All credit and kudos for them sticking the landing with respecting and adhering to the ‘canon’ - with both more recently portrayals of events - and also the long past EU from the era of WEG Sourcebooks etc… beautifully and organically executed.

The whole show is a masterclass.

 

 

Dreena’s message and plea for help on the radio…

 
“Palmo One.

This is Palmo One. This is the voice of Ghorman. This is Palmo One making an Emergency Broadcast on all open channels. This is Palmo One. This is Palmo One.

We are under siege. We’re being slaughtered. The Imperial murder of Ghorman has begun! There are hundreds of bodies at moment.

As I say these words, hundreds of murders Ghormans lay dead in Palmo Plaza. Thousands more on the streets. Mor every minute.

We’re being destroyed!

This is Ghorman reaching for any open channel that can hear me! If you can… if you can hear me… If you believe in truth, if you have any faith left in truth, please, please mark this message and pass it forward. This is murder!

The Empire built this fire! They made this fire and led us to the slaughter. Now they expect us to die without knowing why.

The conspiracy we’ve fears is real! It’s here today!

Imperial ships are already landing across… Help us! Is there no-one who can help us? Is there no-one?”
 

The Ghorman Resistance’s Final Message To The Galaxy - 2 minute video from the The Admiral youtube channel.

 

Mon Mothma’s speech…

 
“Fellow Senators, friends, colleagues… allies, adversaries. I stand before you this morning with a heavy heart. I’ve spent my life in this Chamber. I came here as a child. And as I look around me now I realise I almost have no memories that pre-date my arrival… and few bond of affection that cleave so tightly. Through these many years, I believe I have served my constituents honourably and upheld our code of conduct. This Chamber is a cauldron of opinions, and we’ve certainly all had our patience and tempers tested in pursuit of our ideals.

Disagree as we might, I am hopeful that those of you who know me will vouch for my credibility in the days to come. I stand this morning with a difficult message:

I believe we are in crisis… The distance between what is said… and what is known to be true… has become an abyss. Of all the things at risk, the loss of an objective reality is perhaps the most dangerous. The death of truth is the ultimate victory of evil. When truth leaves us, when we let it slip away, when it is ripped from our hands, we become vulnerable to the appetite of whatever monster screams the loudest.

This chamber’s hold on the truth was finally lost on the Ghorman Plaza. What took place yesterday… what happened yesterday on Ghorman was unprovoked genocide! Yes! Genocide! And that truth has been exiled from this Chamber. And the monster screaming the loudest? The monster we’ve helped create? The monster who will come for us all soon enough… is Emperor Palpatine.”

Bix’s speech…

 
“My Love. You’re sleeping now. You look so peaceful. I wanna be brave, but I can’t. If I was brave, I would stay and do this in person… but I know you, and you’d just talk me around, and I’ve been thinking about this too long to let that happen.

I have to leave. I have to go away. I’m not sure where or for how long, I just know I can’t stay here with you now. I believe what you said. It is a choice. It just can’t be me. I can’t be the reason you leave here. If you ever gave this up for me, I’d… I’d never forgive myself. We have to win. We have to beat them. And I believe you have purpose in making this happen. I need to believe that…

So, I’m choosing for the both of us. I’m choosing the Rebellion.

And when it’s done… when it’s over… and we’ve won… we can do all the things we ever wanted. Everything we’d know we’ve missed.

I’ll find you.”

Old men died fast. Just dropped where they stood. We came back… next day, there’d be nothing but a bone or two where they went down. Our clothes, just… just melted away. So they worked us naked. Two, three hundred men. Boys really. Back and forth until the only thing you could remember was back and forth. Then one day, everyone started to itch. Everyone, all at once. Even the guards. You could feel your skin coming alive. It was the rhydo. They had a leak. You could feel it before you could smell it. So they all panicked and ran away, but it was new to me…”

Wilmon: “It’s done. You can open the valve now.”

Saw: (to Wilmon’s machine) “Aahh ha ha! I have always loved you…”

Wilmon: “What are you doing?!”

Saw: “There it is…”

Wilmon: “How can you do that?!”

Saw: “Because I understand it! Because she’s my sister rhydo, and she loves me! That itch, that burn… You feel how badly she wants to explode? Remember this. Remember this moment! This perfect night. You think I’m crazy? Yes, I am. Revolution is not for the sane. Look at us: unloved, hunted, cannon fodder. We’ll all be dead before the Republic is back and yet… here we are. Where are you, boy? You’re here! You’re not with Luthen. You’re here! You’re right here, and you’re ready to fight! We’re the rhydo, kid. We’re the fuel. We’re the thing that explodes when there’s too much friction in the air. Let it in, boy! That’s freedom calling! Let it in! Let it run! Let it run wild!”

A pity to see to this project bumped again and again - yet no actual news or updates for Neptune’s Star Wars Saga 3D Conversion Project

…instead it has seemingly become a thread for posting ‘link request’ posts for murdav’s Star Wars: A New Hope (1997SE) - Download the Fan-Made 3D Conversion in 2160p HFR (Released).

Maybe people could use Murdav’s own project thread (linked above) for talking about that quality 3D project - including unnecessary ‘link request’ posts asking how to acquire it? And leave this thread for actual news and discussion for Neptune’s Star Wars Saga 3D Conversion Project? 👍

These may be of some use below… please note that cluttering up the project threads with ‘link request’ posts is not only poor form - but is also against the rules & guidelines here - the reasons for which can be found below…

If you recently signed up here you will likely have to wait 7 days before you can either send or receive a PM…
 

The content I’ve encountered on this site is impressive, and I think it could be even more engaging if a grace period for “May the 4th” were included.

You mean the 25th May, yes? The actual Star Wars Day. 😉
 

Unfortunately, it would seem the spammers, spambots, AI, and other reasons… would likely take advantage of such a grace period, yes?

Jay said:

New members have restricted permissions, partly to combat spam/bots…but other reasons also.

So new members having to wait 7 days before being able to send / receive PMs (and using that time to get to know how the site works - and doesn’t, the site and fan project rules etc, how to ask for a fan project - before making unnecessary and disruptive ‘link request’ posts, and joining in the conversations and the community here) is a good thing - if a little inconvenient for newer members.

The Feedback Forum and General Assistance sections of the site may be of interest for more information, queries, and suggestions etc. 👍

How to find / download (RELEASED) fanedits?
Time

Mandalorian1234 said:

Hi. I am a newbi on the forum.

Its May the 4th, so I wanted to watch and download the prequel trilogy.

I found a few interesting fanedits, all with “RELEASED” in the title. What does that mean? And where can I find a way to view/download it? I did not see anyone in the comments asking for PM links or anything.

Here are the 2 posts I’m talking about:

https://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Revenge-of-the-Sith-Bobsons-Theatrical-Reconstruction-Released/id/77176
https://originaltrilogy.com/topic/THE-PHANTOM-MENACE-THEATRICAL-HD-Toppers-Version-Released/id/17137

Any help is much appricate it.

Hello there and welcome. 👍
 

If you’re looking to download and watch and download the retail release of the Prequel Trilogy you are out of luck - this is NOT a pirate site - and you must own the official retail release for any project you are seeking on here - per the Fan Project Rules.

If you meant you’re simply looking to acquire some of the Fan Projects of the Prequels on here, this will be of some help…

NOTE: there are NO download links for projects allowed on this forum - as per the Fan Edit / Preservation Forum Rules and FAQ - See Rule 4 and also FAQ #9.

^ We’ve been here doing this for over 20+ years - so please don’t do anything to jeopardise that. Also, FYI - the Site Rules.

 

Star Wars Preservations can be found listed here: An Index Of Projects & Help Thread for Star Wars Preservations

Star Wars Fan Edits can be found listed here: An Index Of Projects & Help Thread for Star Wars Fan Edits and Other Projects…

If you see a project with “RELEASED” in the thread title means it is erm… released / finished / available. Other projects may have ‘WIP’ in the title - meaning ‘Work In Progress’. Some other projects unfortunately may have ‘unfinished project’ in the titles, or ‘on hiatus’ or ‘cancelled project’ etc. Some projects may have ‘Idea’ or ‘Help Wanted’ listed as they are in early development and just in the fledgling ‘ideas and decisions’ stage - or looking to overcome technical issues / want some suggestions or assistance.

Regrettably… and despite site staff requests… some project creators still do not include the status of their project in the thread title - so you will likely have to read through the thread to ascertain if the project is available or not (or how soon it will be).
 

The reason why you may not see ‘link request’ posts (aka ‘please PM me the link’ requests); in project threads… is because ‘the default way’ to ask for a project on here is to simply PM the project creator and ask how they are making their project available / ask them for a link - as it states in the Fan Project Rules, or the I have found a Fan Edit / Preservation I am interested in - but I don’t know how to get / acquire it? post in the ❕ ‘How do I do this?’ on the OriginalTrilogy.com; some info & answers + member FAQs ❕ thread - in the General Assistance section of the site.

^ This is to help prevent endless ‘links request’ posts - which often both deters and disrupts any ongoing discussions on the projects themselves, further ideas, much-valued feedback, and also reviews occurring in such threads, etc. Plus, the needless ‘link request’ posts have also annoyed some project creators (and also members here) to the point they have left the site.
 

Unfortunately many newer members don’t take the time to look around to see how the place works, or join in the community here, participate in the discussions across the boards, nor leave feedback or reviews for projects, or suggestions and ideas for improvements or fixes or later versions, or even discuss the projects themselves, nor help out fellow members etc… and instead just clog up the forum making more unnecessary and needless ‘link request’ posts in project threads.

^ This, despite many editors & preservationists choosing NOT to make their projects available to ‘hit & runners’ or people with a post history of mainly asking for various projects or making ‘link request’ posts - which is completely up to them.
 

Good luck with acquiring the projects you seek. 👍

If and when do you do find and acquire them, please remember to…

Please leave some feedback for the fan projects on here - or even a review…

…and join in the conversations across the boards here.
 

These are your first steps…

<strong>Tales of the Underworld</strong> <em>(animated series)</em> - a general discussion thread
Time

Skybatman said:

Vestress Episodes:
another story about a jedi in the run from the empire between ROTS and ANH, just like tales of the empire where the empire aspect was insignificant, the underworld aspect is just micro in the 3 episodes arc, its fels more like a pilot of a ventress show and u could use other characters in this kind of premisse like if u dont want to use a new character (btw they should a some point) u could use boba fett and do like 1313 arc for him. Outside of that the episodes are just ok
6/10

Yeah, that sums it up quite nicely for me.

The animation was a plus, the voice acting not so much. There was nothing new here, or of note, and it simply didn’t entertain - nor did it have any depth or substance. The story was a little meh - and served little else other than to say (or hand-wave away):-
 

 
Despite the whole reasoning for her choosing to ‘come back to life’ was her love for Quinlan… she just then chose not to find and join him after a short adventure with the young Jedi on the run. Quite the kick in the teeth for fans of the ‘Darth Disciple’ canon book (although EU & literature fans - and those fans still hopeful for the one consistent narrative across all forms of storytelling as promised in 2014 - should be used to that from Filoni). For me, overall, the Ventress episodes felt hollow and underwhelming… I hope others found them significantly more engaging, entertaining, and worthwhile.

I guess Ventress will turn up for a significant role in the recently announced Maul: Shadow Lord animated series?

 

A Cad Bane origin trilogy! These were more engaging and intriguing than the first 3 episodes of ToTU - yet still a little cliche and predictable; offering little new. Like Skybatman, I do wonder how much better the story could have been in a longer run-time (and also handled by someone with a fresh view and approach… than Filoni’s all-too-familiar trademarks and limitations).

 

For me, the ToTE and ToTU seem long way from the quality of the original ToTJ Dooku installments. I hope they don’t drag this ToTX series out further - unless they do give control to fresh eyes with a different approach.

How can I watch a theatrical release of the original trilogy online

How can I watch a theatrical release of the original trilogy online?

In answer to your question… you don’t.

If any online platform did this, and it became popular, it’d likely soon receive a ‘cease and desist’ order - or simply shut down.

Plus, you’ve likely seen the video compression used by the likes of youtube and streaming services - in comparison to the physical media release - often lacking when observed side by side… so any free video platform would likely also struggle.
 

There are occasionally dodgy ‘apps’ or TV/IPTV ‘services’ that may feature the unaltered theatrical cuts of the Original Trilogy as mentioned in here - The Unaltered Trilogy on Roku - as well as ‘veetle’-like online services that may screen the theatrical cuts… yet they are few and far between (and don’t seem to last long before being shut down or disappearing; IPTV being an exception).
 

If you’d like to acquire a copy of the unaltered theatrical cuts of the Original Trilogy head over to the Star Wars Preservation section of the site - and give the pinned ❕ An Index Of Projects & Help Thread for Star Wars Preservations… ❕ a read through… to see which Star Wars preservation projects appeal to you (usually, the Harmy Despecialized Editions or the 4K77/80/83 projects are among the more popular and highly rated endeavours around).

^ Obviously, you must be in ownership of the official retail release to acquire any such project here - as per the Fan Project Rules.

 

Please also give the following useful ‘info and help threads’ a read through to help you learn how to acquire such projects…
