When was the turning point for TF.NET?
Time

Didn't they lose a lot of credibility when one of the people who used to run the site started the Yoda breaks wind in Episode III rumor?

 

That was mo mere rumour. That was almost in the movie.

Wasn't Yoda supposed to avoid capture by acting like a nutjob (and farting) -- so they assumed he wasn't a jedi?

Yeah it was after the attack on Kashyyyk. Right around the time when the clonetroopers have their spots on the lookout for survivors of the attack.

The other so shocking it's true was a young Solo being raised by wookies during the attack on Kashyyyk.

I agree. For me, the Jabba scene is redundant. It also lessens the threat Jabba poses to Han.

But for those who want to keep it in, why doesn't someone just cut away from the part when he steps on the tail and show Chewie again? Then go back to Han/Jabba as Han circles back around to front. You could delay the dialogue so the new shot isnt so quick.

And then just come up with new dialogue and have Jabba say something else.

Are you saying Naboo should be Alderaan?

Naboo is close environmentally-speaking to what Alderaan was to look like as depicted in McQuarrie's paintings and so on. But architecturally, it's very different. I'm not saying that's wrong, just different than what McQuarrie depicted.

As far aa a Naboo "secret". I was thinking the federation uses something more obvious like trading or riches as a ruse, when their real intent is to get ahold of that secret on behalf of the Sith. Of course, the "ruse" would be the reward for th neimoidians, but it would be something "trivial" like riches. The secret would be something more sinister.

Here's my old list of ROTJ:SE of things I would have fixed, added, etc.

Excuse me if some of this stuff has already been fixed. I only watched the '04 DVD for ROTJ once.

1)Yoda's robes should stay when he disappears

2)When camera follows two rebels walking into command center, add upper balcony with rebels.

3)Have shot following 3POs wisecrack(exciting is hardly word I would choose) with Ackbar saying something more dramatic.

4)Make heroes shuttle different type. Like one that could support parts and mechanical stuff.

5)Add more personnel to background of hangar matte to liven it up.

6)Same with Falcon matte behind Lando

7)Get rid of Vader's dialogue " No I will deal with them myself." Just have him stop at "No".

8) Add some exotic mtns. to background of shuttle flying over Endor.

9) Add some really big trees. Make it more immense.

10) Add some environmental activity with speeder bikes as they zip along. Blowing ferns, branches, etc.

11) Edit Wicket finding Leia scene entirely.

13) Add eye blinks to various ewoks.

14) Fix ewok rope as he swings across to village. In background, expand village more.

15) Give baby ewok and  eye blink

16) Add background huts and flicvkering lights to dinner roast scene to make it more expansive and less like a set.

17)Digitally paint in some ropes holding R2 into shots showing him before he was set free.

18)Get rid of 3POs sound fx during story

19)Have Logray give a short speech announcing his people's plight. How his village is the last of many after the imperials have begun industrializing anbd clearing the planet for settlement.

20)Have a short reaction shot from Chewie as Logray tells this.

21)Add more of a clearing around generator compound.

22) Eliminate Vader's dialogue as he is inspecting Luke's saber

23) Digitally paint out trees around platform during Luke/Vader talk.

24) Take out trees around imperial compound

25)Quick shot showing rebel donning biker helmet outside bunker

26)Vary Emperor's starfield in throne room

27)Eliminate emperor's dialogue "An entire legion of my best troops awaits them". Save the surprise. Just have him tell Luke his friends are doomed.

28)Show an a-wing blowing up against shield

29)Show that y-wing in lower right bouncing off shield aflame as Ackbar says :Green group stay close to holding sector 327.

30)Show new shot of Imperial fleet emerging from behind Endor just before shot of person telling Ackbar there are enemy ships in sector whatever.

31)Add more fleet to Imperial armada as Falcon flies towards it right after Ackbar's "It's a trap!"

32)Fix Emperor's slugs

33)Add more clearing into bunker clearing and add more imperial troops.

39) show shots of imperials decimating forest with huge explosions and thusly, ewoks.

40)Make Executor impact more explosive, with internal, secondary explosions going off throughout the shot on the DS2 surface.

41)Make Anakin's face more grim and disfigured

including the snow ground is taken from a photograph so how you think that adding a real element makes the new shot look less realistic than the original which has a foreground and background painted matte is beyond me.

They weren't all mattes. The background was a painted backdrop for many shots. And if something is a photographic or painted elelment doesn't matter. It's how they fit together. Do the real elements match? Do they give a sense of depth to your shots?

But anyway, the shot in question looks great in motion. That's what really matters.
