When Vader’s shuttle is landing in the second DS there is a scaffolding struture on the left side of it, but then in the next close up shot of the shuttle it’s no longer there.

When R2 plays Luke’s holographic message to Jabba, Luke’s lightsaber is shown clipped to the right side of his body. Then before the message ends a brief shot of Luke’s hologram is visible showing his lightsaber clipped to the left side of his body indicating that in all previous shots of Luke before the one with the message ending, Luke’s holographic image was flipped.


NOTE: In the film Luke keeps his lightsaber clipped to the left side of his body (this is also true in TESB).

During R2’s holographic message of Luke to Jabba, in the shot showing Jabba and Bib Fortuna then panning down to Salacious Crumb the smoke coming from Jabba’s pipe is going inward and the bubbles in the bong are flowing downward indicating that this shot was played in reverse.

In the scene when “Leia” pulls out the thermal detonator in front of Jabba, the shots showing Boba Fett during this are flipped due to his helmets antenna being on the left side.

On Jabba’s sail barge when Luke is shot on his mechanical hand by a blaster the injury from the shot is already visible on his hand before he’s even shot and when he is shot he’s actually shot on the sleeve.

good catch.i never see this.

The point is you don’t need to quote a mile-long post just to say one thing about it.

Mate, I suggest you don’t 😃

I’d ask you please go back and remove the block of pics you quoted too - there is really no need to quote all those pics just to post one generic sentence - on the same page.

Thanks.

Just to be a werdio so can I.

A werdio indeed 😉

I’ve noticed the price of the official Star Wars USB Drives (in the shape of the characters) have dropped recently…

http://www.ebay.com/bhp/star-wars-usb

https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=star+wars+usb
 

It seems that a 16gb USB drive in the shape of Vader, Yoda, R2, BB8, Stormtrooper, Boba Fett, Maul and all - go for around $10 - new with free delivery, a 32gb version for a couple of $'s more, and a 64gb version for around $20…

They look quite fun & decent on the shelf next to the vhs, dvd, bluray cases and other Star Wars releases etc - also serving as a back-up device too - and obviously they don’t require any boxes, cases or printing of ink at all…
 

just a few examples…

Oh dang, so it’s really the special edition? Dang. I did want them but now I won’t have the OOT until I order again.

I find this site is a very good resource for identifying various releases down the years:-

http://www.swonvideo.com/

(it’s also run by our very own Video Collector)

and fellow posters on here should be able to help with any questions you may have about sets you may be interested in (as to whether it is a OOT or a ‘Special Edition’ release etc).

If you would like to be shaved you can be shaved mate - in the Great Republic Of The Land Of The Giants all types and choices of mammalian skin organs are equal and welcome.

(to clarify - you can shave yourself - we aren’t doing it; we’ve better things do be doing - being tall and all 😉)

Finally, a world where ‘one size fits all’ will not be a lie 😃

Full page ad in the Washington Post today. Strange times.

If Trump sees that too it’ll be an interesting race to see who gets the $10m first 😉

(Trump may be first - though he’ll likely be that inept he’ll mess it up and then you’ll get the dosh - good luck Comrade yhwx!

Unless this is a ruse to get yhwx and the general public hooked on ‘reading’ Hustler magazines as ‘research’…)

Me too - though I eventually twigged that flametitan was referring to the TLJ trailer - though I spent a good 10 minutes examining the sig for a hidden disclaimer beforehand 😃

(it’s been a slow night for this old head 😉)

flametitan makes a decent point that there may may be additional cautions for channels (ie, Disney XD) that TLJ is being advertised on that the film itself may not be fully suitable for it’s younger audiences.

It’ll be interesting to see how the MPAA and BBFC etc rates TLJ.

I really hope that photobucket re-thinks it’s policy on barring 3rd part image sharing (unless you pay £££/$$$s) - not only for the many, many covers, art, and pics etc shared on here and other sites over the years - but also that it will likely serve to push away many of it’s users to other image sharing sites - and could/has damaged it’s brand and the photobucket site itself…

(…though they may have already achieved this by the sheer amount of adverts that pop up when logging in to the site - or trying to view a pic based on there)

Apparently, people are still angry about the “War on Christmas.”

http://www.cnn.com/2017/10/13/politics/trump-values-voters-summit/index.html

President Donald Trump dove into America’s culture wars on Friday, touting his administration for “returning moral clarity to our view of the world” and ending “attacks on Judeo-Christian values.”

Trump, nine months into his presidency, has found it harder to get things done than the ease with which he made promises on the campaign trail, making speeches to adoring audiences like Friday’s in Washington key to boosting the President’s morale. And the audience at the Values Voter Summit, an annual socially conservative conference, didn’t fail to deliver.

“We are stopping cold the attacks on Judeo-Christian values,” Trump said to applause, before slamming people who don’t say “Merry Christmas.”

“They don’t use the word Christmas because it is not politically correct,” Trump said, complaining that department stores will use red and Christmas decorations but say “Happy New Year.” “We’re saying Merry Christmas again.”

The comment drew thunderous applause.

Heated debates over the “War On Christmas” have raged for years, with many on the right complaining that political correctness has made it less acceptable to say Merry Christmas. Trump has seized on these feelings, regularly telling primarily religious audiences that his presidency has made it acceptable to “start saying Merry Christmas again.”

“You go into a department store. When was the last time you saw ‘Merry Christmas?’ You don’t see it anymore,” Trump said on the campaign trail. “They want to be politically correct. If I’m president, you will see ‘Merry Christmas’ in department stores, believe me, believe me.”

Great news! I got the OK from NJVC to share his sets on mega again! Harmy has given his approval as well. Go to this thread for more information on and previews of the sets themselves.

But as with anything else Despecialized, these projects should never be bought or sold.

Also you are required to own an own official copies of the Blu-rays or IV-VI of the HD Digital Downloads.

These requirements are to allay concerns of piracy, which could threaten the entire Despecilaized Project. So before you download anything here please obtain official copies of the Original Trilogy in HD. And please … please … DO NOT BUY OR SELL THESE!

I have built in a few barriers I will ask you to deal with before you can get the files to burn the blu-rays. This is not meant to keep anyone who wants copies for personal use from gaining access. Rather, it is meant to ensure that you must be intentional about getting them. I regret that this has to be so convoluted. My aim was to make NJVC’s sets as available as possible, but still make it inconvenient enough to keep my shares from being pirate bait. Follow the steps, be patient, and you will obtain the files you seek, and all without torrents. 😃

I also have a guide to burning these sets posted here below in the most comprehensive a way as I could think of. Mods, if you spot something there that I could improve, please let me know.

Steps for obtaining NJVC Sets

1) Go to https://www.proboards.com/register and set up an account.

2) Now go to http://swesbrotjbrmls.freeforums.net/ and log in with your new credentials.

3) Open the “General Discussion” Folder

4) Click the “NJVC” Subject. This will contain a download link that says “rars”.

5) That link will download a password protected rar file called “NJVC OOT BR MLs”. The page may tell you that there is an error with the preview, but this didn’t interfere with anything when I tested it.

6) Download and extract the file with the password “Speci@lEditionsAre2ShortSighted”. The extracted package will contain a single text file Called “NJVC OOT BR MLs”.

(^Note^- If you do not already have a file extracting program, I used winrar to archive the file, but there many programs that can unrar it for free. Here’s a list of several such programs for windows. The Unarchiver should work for Macs. And here is a helpful article on how to extract archived files in Windows and Mac OS.)

7) This text file will contain links to mega folders for each disc as well as lists of the links you will need for all the individual rar files. The folder links are only provided in case you would like to import them to your own mega.nz account before downloading. It’s probably not feasible to download the entire folder all at once. All these links are in free accounts, which have a 5 Gig transfer limit. That means you’ll probably only be able to download a maximum of 10 files before getting a window telling you to wait several hours before continuing to download.

Also keep in mind there may be a “rush” on these files once I post this, so if you run into bandwidth caps because of that, there isn’t anything I can do.

8) For this reason, I recommend using the download manager “FreeRapid Downloader”. It will let you download several files at once, as well as saving your progress if the process is aborted midway through with the wait message. You can get that here. But you will still likely be limited to 10 files every six hours or so. Remember, patience is key.

For more details on using FreeRapid Downloader, check out Section 4, Steps 1-6 of “The Ultimate Introductory Guide to Harmy’s Star Wars Trilogy Despecialized Editions”, found here.

9) Once you have all the rar files downloaded, extract them with your chosen unarchiving software.

(^Note^- Depending on your extractor and its settings, you will likely need to have free disk space for the rars as well as space in which the ISO files can be reassembled and saved. And these files are massive. The space required for all the rars plus the extracted isos for all three films is close to 450 gigabytes. Make sure you have the disk space necessary before you start. Also, although you will be using the same extraction method as used for extracting the link list, it will be much slower because of the size of the files. Make sure to allow about 30 minutes to an hour for the extraction of each set of rars.)

10) Once the extraction process is complete for each of the rar sets, you will have the following six ISO files:

Star Wars Despecialized 2.7 BD50.iso
Star Wars Documentaries.iso
The Empire Strikes Back Despecialized 2.0 BD50.iso
The Empire Strikes Back - Documentaries BD25.iso
Return of the Jedi Despecialized BD50.iso
ROTJ & SW Trilogy Documentaries BD50.iso

(^Note^- ISO files are the digital images of the videos and file structures to be burned to the blu-ray disc, but it is not necessary to burn the ISOs to discs to view them. You can mount the file as a virtual drive to have your computer view the file as if it were a disc in a drive. Here is an article on how to do that in Windows. The process is even simpler in Mac OS. If you still want to burn them to discs, read on.)

11) For the Star Wars and Empire Strikes Back Documentary Discs a 25 gigabyte blu-ray will suffice. For all the others, you will need dual layer 50 gigabyte blu-rays. I recommend Verbatim Brand discs, as they are some of most reliable I’ve used and least likely to end up as coasters.

12) Obtain a blu-ray burner drive.

13) Now that you have the necessary ISOs, blu-ray discs, and blu-ray burning drive you’ll need disc burning software. For this, the best method is to use ImgBurn.

(Edit: But based on continuing feedback, it seems there may still be issues with both ImgBurn’s official download source and more stripped down versions that might seem clean. This is frustrating because I still think ImgBurn is the best way to go about burning these projects. But as such, I’m removing all download links to it from this guide until such time as I can be sure I can point you to a version that I know will not cause users any headaches. In the mean time, ImgBurn is still readily availible, but obtain it at your own risk. I will post a new link in this guide as soon as I can verfy that a copy is completely free of any unwanted software. Stay tuned.)

14) Connect your drive and load the blank disc.

15) You’re ready burn the ISOs to your blu-ray! Follow the steps below.

Steps for burning NJVC Sets

1. Open ImgBurn and select “Write image file to disc”.

2. Next, Under “Source” use The “Browse for a file…” button to navigate to the ISO you want to burn and select it.

3. Under “Destination”, select the blu-ray drive that you will be using to burn the disc.

4. Make sure the box next to “Test Mode” is unchecked.

5)* This step is optional, but I strongly recommend it. Set the “Write Speed” to “1x”, the lowest possible setting. This will mean the initial burn will probably take over an hour, but reducing the burn speed means reducing the chances of burning errors.

6)* This step is also optional, but I recommend it as well. Make sure the box next to “Verify” is checked. This will cause the system to scan the disc for errors after the burn is complete. This will add another hour or so onto processing time, but it is a double check so you can be sure the disc has burned properly without any errors.

7. Click the “Write” button to begin the burning process.

8)* After the initial burn is complete, the disc will eject. If you selected “Verify” in step 6, the computer will attempt to reload the disc to scan it for errors. Motorized trays will allow the computer to do this automatically, but non-motorized drives will not be capable of this. The result will be the following warning message:

This is normal. Reload the disc again manually, then click “OK” as the prompt directs. ImgBurn will scan your disc for errors, probably taking about an hour. When it finds none, it will eject the disc again, announce that the burn has been successful, and you’re done!

This doesn’t work with Jdownloader or unarchiver. Not sure where I went wrong.

Mate, you didn’t really need to quote the whole post by solkap to respond with your post - please remove the quoted section.

Thank you.

dahmage - nice suggestion re http://www.7-zip.org for Windows users. It is free, easy to use, and I found it has fewer issues when extracting files than using winrar or winzip (in my experience, anyway 😃)
