It was more for an FX addition to the viewfinder screen. To show that he is indeed looking at an image as the Range Finder is down. As it stands currently in the scene, it really isn't clear enough to see anything but a white light.

I thought showing what he is looking at (which looks like a scene from Lawrence of Arabia), would imply that the original thought was Boba Fett looking at a small view screen with a display.

Just thought I would share this photo

(here is the scene)

Here is what Fett is looking at (yes this is from the actual predroduction helmet, no photoshop)

I never liked how this shot looked either. It always bugged me how there seemed to be a obvious line down the center where the existing shot was put next to the new shot. The colors and lighting just doesn't match. All the super orange mirror reflection just abruptly ends and the old white floor starts. Even the pattern in the floor does not line up.

I think that as far as appropriate lighting for this shot, the orange reflection should completely go and be replaced with the original white floor, with reflections intact. The 'sun' appears to me to be setting, so its light should be coming from the bottom of the screen and shinning up (kind of like the background shows). However, the reflection on the ground implies that the sun is higher in the sky, shinning down on the floor.

But even if the 'sun' was shinning directly across (i.e. it is level with the floor), it would be blocked by all the buildings off to the left that are off screen and still wouldn't be seen in this shot.  However if it was the tallest building in Bespin to escape this detail, the sun would be reflecting all the way across the floor and not stop half way.

I am sorry, but I cannot help wounder why we seem to be going back over the same 'arguments' over and over again.

I think some seem to be forgetting the purpose of Adywan's edit. This edit was started 'cuz the SE was a disappointment for him as well as a lot of people (to put it mildly).

It's Adywan's edit. If he says he hates a scene and wants to cut or change it, it's his prerogative. If you disagree, that's OK, but provide a convincing argument or alternative helpful suggestion, but to keep using the "...because I like it" counter argument just isn't going to get anywhere.

If you love the SE additions, and are adamant about 'keeping' scenes, dialogue, voice overs, FX etc., all you have to do is put in your original SE DVD and they are all there intact for your viewing pleasure.

But, if you are like me, and cannot watch the SE without wanting to launch the DVD into the air and blow it to bits like a clay pigeon, then this edit is more for you. The SE created more problems then it fixed.

It's like replacing the Engine from a '52 Chevy Corvette with a Ford Mustang when the transmission was what was broken. Sure there are some out there who may think that this was a 'cool' idea. But it didn't address the issue, and it just doesn't run the same.

Adywann, why you have decided to return original Boba voice... i mean he is a clone of Jango and his adult voise should be like jango and clones... or not?

...if we keep to this logic, then ALL the stormtroopers dialogue would have to be re-recorded with Morrison's, Vader's voice should be re-recorded w/Hayden's, and Boushh's voice should be re-recorded with Carrie's etc. etc.

Simple fact that should shoot this argument down...wait for it...

The helmets have voice mods in them!

Vader and Boushh should be enough to debunk this 'myth' that his voice "has to sound like Jangos"

I don't have much experience with real life cloning and how identical one is from the other when both grow up separately, but I can guesstimate looking at twins, that there is no real proof to assume that his voice would be identical.

I can quite honestly state that a 1080p version, or any HD versions of ANH:R will never happen. I never want to do that movie again

On a related note...once you are done with the movies, would you ever want to watch them again?

...Oh and Ady - While we're on famous ESB debates - Will you be coloring Han's winter coat BLUE or BROWN? Yes, there's a debate as to what color it was...Which is why Hasbro made two different versions of the same figure a few years ago...

 

There isn't much to debate on this one anymore. The coat IS brown. Any and all ref showing the coat being any shade of blue is due to the poor coloring that has been/is being corrected.

I have seen the coat first hand at Celebration IV, and it is 100% brown.

...I'd also like it if you could keep the one SE shot where the Wampa is flailing with his arm cut off...

 

 

I never liked this shot. When the Wampa screams after it lost its arm does not seem 'fit' in the scene. Its pace is off. Plus it feels redundant. We already see his arm falling off, I don't think we need to see the wampa again without the arm, just to dive in the point that he lost it.

We first see IG-88 here in the bounty hunter scene.

In the book "Tales of a Bounty Hunter" Boba Fett 'killed' IG-88 and he wound up here in the junk pile (next to the furnace). But for continuity, his color will have to be changed to match.

Another idea about this shoot is adding some flames from the furnace to make it more threatening.

Burn mark is now there

and laser shot hits the same spot again?

next laser shot,

no burn

How can you tell that the lens - if it's even there - is missing in the other shot?  Maybe it's not even there in the first shot, maybe it's just a weird lighting reflection from off-camera.  If it is actually a lens part on there, maybe it's designed recessed so that you can't see it from the other angle in the second shot.

Find a third shot that proves or dis-proves the existence of the lens one way or the other...that will decide which shot needs to be changed.

here are a few shots to 'prove' my point...

here is a shot of the costume on display (Art of Star Wars)

Missing Lens

Love the new gun on the MF. I did always think it never looked right.

Since screen shots are more fun, thought I would give a visual for some suggestions.

We see Boba Fett's Range Finder in the down position. At the bottom of the Range finder is a display lens that clearly has no display. Could we see something there that he may be looking at for the reason the range finder would be down?

In this shot Fett's Chest lights are not really moving, which we see that they do move in the Carbon Chamber scene

Fett's Knee armor is upside down

The display lens (mentioned in first photo) on Fett's Range Finder is missing in this shot. Must have broken off.  Also his lights again don't seem to be too visible

Don't forget these suggestions that were already made...

-Obi Wan's Ghost to always appear Transparent
-Add more subtle display to Snowspeeders Instrument panels
-Correct Probe Droids lasers to hit closer to Chewie
-Add At-At's landing on Hoth
-Add burn marks to At-At's where shot by lasers
-Add Laser shot hitting Rebels who die
-Add Camera Shake to Luke's Snowspeeder Crash
-Reedit/Remove Rebels running at Fallen At-At (yells "Common" we see them run with snowspeeders overhead and then they At-At blows up. Why were they running to it? Never understood the reason for that shot)
-Add movement to Vaders Chest box as he enters Rebel base
-Add camera shake as Stardestroyers sheilds collide "Take evasive maneuvers"
-Fix TIE Fighter explosion through Astroid crevice

-Add 3PO coming down stairs of Bespin
-Add movement to Boba Fett's Chest Lights outside torture chamber
-Fix Stormtroopers helmet being lifted when they drop off Han in cell
-Fix Boba Fett's Knee guards being upside down in Carbon Chamber shots
-Remove Audio of Chewie groweling when choking Lando
-Add range finder lens to Boba Fett as he puts Han in cargo hold (it's missing)
-Remove Luke's Head poping back into the shot when he jumps off Carbonite platform
-Fix Jump-cut of steal gate doors closing behind Luke
-Reinsert Audio bite of Lando's Mic
-Remove black dot markers on wall where stormtroops lasers will hit
-Add blast marks to stormtroops who are shoot
-Change location of Laser shots where they hit the wall in same spot twice
-Add FX of MF landing gear retracting when taking off
-Add scortch marks to wall during Vader/Luke Lightsaber battle
-Add burn mark to Vaders shoulder armor when Luke hits it (He acts like it hurt, but there is no visible damage)
-Fix C3P0 hand location when holding his severed leg
-Fix Luke getting his mechanical arm FX (bottom half looks too fake)
-Stabalize pull-back shot of Medical frigate (Window has a "shaking" look)

I think that may be a PT explanation. All resources I have found state that Bacta is red. Behind the Scenes at Starwars.com mentions that the lighting on the set was so bright that it washed out all the 'red' coloring of the tank. When we see the tank again empty, and less light, it is a deep red. Here in a pre-production Art/Storyboard showing that it was originally ment to be red.
