Posting threads in the four Fan Project sections of the OriginalTrilogy•com…

The four main Fan Project sections are…
 

A polite request: That fan editors & preservationists keep their project threads (and thread titles) updated as to their status - whether their project is in the… ‘Planning’ or ‘Idea’ stages, if any ‘Help Needed’ is required, is a ‘Work In Progress (WIP)’, or hopefully ‘Finished’ & ‘Released’ - or even unfortunately ‘Unfinished’, ‘Cancelled’ or ‘On Hiatus’ etc.

The site staff also ask that fan editors & preservationists include information in the opening post of their project thread as to how they would like members to ask about obtaining their projects; whether that is by sending them a PM, or asking for link requests in the project thread itself, or by other means. Thank you.

Some information about The 2020 re-organisation of the ‘Fan Project’ sections of the site - and more…
 

If creating a new thread that is NOT a fan project… please give fellow members a clear idea of what the thread is about. For example, add ‘Query’, or ‘Info’, ‘Discussion’, ‘Help: looking for…’, ‘Help Wanted’, ‘Info Wanted’, ‘Has anyone done a project on X?’, or ‘Idea: for Project X’ etc to the thread title. It annoys members to see lazily titled threads that appear to be projects on here - to open them - and only to find it is some lazy git just looking for a project, or wanting a link, or more info, or wanting someone else to make a project for them etc. Please do not make new threads for which there are project threads already in existence.
 

Please let us also know if you see any errors, broken links or if project threads / Indexes requires updating. 👍
 

Posting on the OriginalTrilogy•com…

 
We’re a diverse and welcoming community - the site is after all based on a love & reverence for all things Star Wars. This is especially so for the Original Trilogy - with many on here viewing the Star Wars universe through a distinct OT-focused lens or perspective - as well as having a fervour for the unaltered theatrical cuts of the three iconic films, obviously. Yet there is also a respect for everything else from the Galaxy Far Far Away. Yes, even The Holiday Special, maybe…

Take your time to look around the site before posting - and to also get a feel for the place. We are not like reddit or 4chan etc (not that there’s anything wrong with those sites) - we’re just a little different… more of an old-skool site ‘for a more civilised age’.

The upshot is ‘Be Civil - Be Cool’; passionate - yet cordial discussion & wide-ranging views are both welcome and encouraged - toxicity, personal attacks, aggressive or vitriolic attitudes, disingenuous bad faith arguments - including agenda-led/toxic/FDM type videos, trolls & WUM behaviour are not - and choosing that path will likely see your stay on here being a short one.

To paraphrase Irvin Kershner, quoted whilst directing Empire Strikes Back… ‘fight for what you love - not because you hate’.

A reminder that a significant number of members on here are fans made to feel unwelcome at certain other Star Wars sites - or were censored or even banned for discussing the unaltered cuts, or highlighting Lucas’ disingenuous statements & alterations to SW history.

Also, a number of preservationists, fan editors, and people making other fan-made projects (such as documentaries) over the years here on the OriginalTrilogy•com have received death threats, threats in general, and ‘threats to life’ - unless they ceased work on, or distribution of, their freely-available projects. These threats were made from other Star Wars fans / zealots who see such projects on here from this community… as somehow insulting or derogatory to George Lucas, the wider Star Wars fandom, or to their own beliefs.

Beliefs such as preservations of the unaltered theatrical versions of the Original Trilogy should no longer exist or be seen, or that fan edits desecrate George’s ‘vision’(s). Or fans seemingly deeply offended - even triggered to anger and threats - by cited articles, projects, and documentaries from fans here chronicling a more complete and accurate history of Star Wars… than that of the re-written, somewhat selective, and retconned version of history often found in official or licensed content and sources from Lucas / Lucasfilm.

OriginalTrilogy•com is a site to openly talk about the revered original cuts of the 3 iconic Star Wars films and its full, factual history.
 

We hope you enjoy your time on here - as thousands of others already have, currently do, and will - in the future to come. 👍

The ‘Fandom’ section of An Index & Help Thread for Original Trilogy Discussion and A brief overview of the OriginalTrilogy•com down the years… may also be of interest for a more in-depth history of this unique fan community / for further reading.

If there are none here mate it may be worth trying some of the dvd custom cover sites around - there is a list for some of these sites in the ‘An Index Thread (and more) for Case Covers, Disc Labels, and Fan Art…’ thread.
 

Also, it may be easier to find a scanned copy of the disc labels for the 2011 blu rays, and add ‘Harmy Despecailazied Edition’ (or similar) text to them yourself with a Star Wars type font:-

Heard about a recent BBC radio doc on Stuart Freeborn. Any way to listen to this in the states?

This is a link to a recently aired BBC radio program on him mate (28 mins long) hopefully should work in the US too:-

There seems to be a disconnect with fans who frequent certain online reddit subs (those that do not kneel and have multiple leaks - and memes! So many memes! 😃) - and those fans who don’t frequent those sites…

For me, the quality has dropped off the last couple of seasons - and I think this season could have benefited from having an extra episode or two to focus on character development and decision-making, along with giving more breathing room between and leading up to the more action-orientated episodes.

Yet I don’t think it’s as bad as some make out on those certain reddit sites - the episodes are still an enjoyable watch, absorbing on many levels, and am very much looking forward to the last episode (despite knowing how it will likely end). Yet, there is ‘something’ lacking this season and some choices made are somewhat questionable…
 

Am quite intrigued to see ideas and suggestions for possible improvements…
 

Please let me know when there is a UK airing - I would very much like to see this.

Really intrigued by her story - thanks for posting it up mate.

Thinking about this thread got me to watch “The People vs George Lucas” again. That documentary could have been a whole lot more harsh. Perhaps it should have been. It’s such a conflicting situation. I admire him for creating Star Wars and am grateful for all his contributions to cinema in general, but some of his comments, and more importantly his actions, are so counteractive to everything I believe made it all great to begin with.

I guess if you take a perfectionist and storyteller, they will give you some quality entertainment, but you might not get the truth about anything.

It’d certainly be interesting to see an update or addendum covering the past 10 years in a ‘The People vs George Lucas II’ or similar…

A shame the plans for an ‘Episode II’ of it featuring the Sequel Trilogy and change of ownership didn’t materialise:-

Good grief oojason, you’ve done it again during my recent absence!

Although it’s gonna bring back a lot of the old pain and disappointment for me in certain aspects, I’ll certainly take the time to have a ‘nostalgic’ read of your latest extensive effort here. I don’t know whether to thank you or dis you. 😉

Thanks mate 😃

There will be a test on all categories next week 😉 j/k

Love this channel, and this video in particular. I’m sure some fanedits could use these models to great effect.

I love EC Henry. Such a genuine guy who is clearly passionate about the content he shares with his channel. This particular video is great, I agree. I feel like those particular models could be used to either to replace the blurry models in some kind of remastered edition, or potentially to supplement the fleet’s size in certain ROTJ shots maybe.

Ate, a cracking and informative channel - really enjoyed his new co-venture with EckhartsLadder - also a quality channel:-

Battle of the Dreadnoughts - A Star Wars Short Film

Hoping they do more projects like this together.
 

Is is still happening mate - or has the issue cleared up now?
