first preview dropping today 8pm est.
new shot:
preview coming soon…

preview scene coming soon:
I have compiled a 64-bit version for OSX. I tested it on my Macbook pro (still running OSX High Sierra) and on a virtual machine (still running on OSX Sierra), and it worked on both but I can’t tell you for sure that it will run on Catalina, so give it a go:
Web installer (32 MB): https://mega.nz/#!D9JUzCRC!0B482Vg6yIC9eZXKAsOMdLnLvFItG5bv5JKJ0BJraYI
Full installer (879 MB): https://mega.nz/#!D1YUnATI!g21ed17ldNaXQ0ZZN43_j3dEFBxsNeO8foslxuDD98A
Note: either way, you will have to download about 900 MB: the only difference is that the web installer will download the other 800+ MB during install whereas the full installer requires the download up front. When I tested them, the web installer was unable to connect to the matlab URL it needed to in order to download the rest of it, so you might be better off with the bigger download…
sorry do you mid re-uping this… missed it.
I know you’re not taking requests anymore and this is kinda petty, but…
It’s always bugged me that when han is trying to force boot the falcon he accidentally breaks the door frame:
before smack: 
After smack: 
(It’s more apparent in motion)
He even seems surprised that it breaks but keeps on going…
am I the only one that noticed this? or was this a purposeful gag?
Does anyone know of a step by step or video on how to download this? I’m not the most tech savvy.
when it’s released pm me, i’ll help you.
Hi, can I get the link so I can watch the movie?
just pm me, I’ll get that for you there.
One thing that has always bothered me, which i have never seen anyone mention before, is this shot during Red Leaders trench run. The first X-wing to be destroyed by the TIES. Problem is, the lasers aren’t coming from the TIEs, but from the turbo lasers down the trench. But the trench lasers stopped firing as soon as the Ties were about to enter the trench. So it looks like, with the effects being in their final stage, that originally one of the x-wing was to destroyed during the beginning of the run by the turret lasers before the TIEs appeared and it was changed late in the edit. So i removed the lasers from this shot.
good catch.
Since 1997, people have wanted STAR WARS re-released in it’s original format. Everyone here can agree that the 1997 Jabba the Hutt looked atrocious, right? Well, you’re not the only ones who think so. That’s why I am proposing to create an original copy of STAR WARS, completely unaltered except for color correction, in HD! I can do this by taking the 2011 Blu-ray copy and then adding parts of the original cut and putting them into the Blu-ray at parts where the 2011 editions differ with the original cut. That way we can all enjoy STAR WARS as it was in HD, without downloading a 21GB file!
people are doing this in 4k nowadays, where have you been for the past 10 years?.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everyone…
See you in 2024
beautiful, adywan. Merry Christmas.
Hey Ady, I know there was a lot of discussion a while back around using clever edits or AI audio to tweak certain Vader lines (changing “Obi-Wan once thought as you do” to “Your mother once thought as you do,” among other changes), but all of those attempts sounded a little unnatural to some degree. I just came across this voiceover artist whose Vader dubs are the best I’ve ever heard, he absolutely nails the OT-era JEJ voice.

Here is his channel:
https://www.youtube.com/@RyanGoldenVO/videos
He openly offers his contact details for using his voice in production in his video descriptions, might be useful for any dialogue edits you’re trying to make in ANH or ROTJ Revisited.
ady already said he has a darth vader voice actor… he never said anything about ai.
As most of you may know, ever since clips of this documentary surfaced online a few years ago, this became one of the “Holy Grails” of Star Wars. While the quality isn’t great, at long last we get to see the full 1 hour documentary. This is a direct rip from the DVD that i was given. The original ISO file will be found soon on the spleen and on the usual SW usenet group.
This seems to be from a different source than the one that StarWarsArchives originally posted clips from, so i decided to make this a new topic.
Enjoy
How does one join/use Usenet and which one is the usual Star Wars group. I’m new to Star Wars and would love to watch this doc before moving on to Return of the Jedi
MySpleen doesn’t seem to be allowing new users so if it’s at all possible to share the original iso or an even mkv file that would be much appreciated!

your welcome.
so what now?
the 2020 Blu-ray IS in 4k. Also, it’s available everywhere, but that shouldn’t be a problem if you own it.
this should be in the “star Wars Preservations” section not here.

Have still not been able to upload to the Drive. Nothing I can do but wait.
whats the issue?
Oh yeh, i promised a clip didn’t i? Well, here you go:
Personally, I think the lighting in the Falcon’s cockpit might be a little TOO blue. Maybe turn it down a bit by 10% or 15%.
I personally like the blue, remember it’s the only source of light here.
I did a comparison of the Revisited clip and the original, and I noticed in the first shot with Han and Leia that the monitor graphics on the top left was originally green, and I think the filter turned it blue. And now that I think about it, maybe the filter Adywan added is fine the way it is aside from that detail. It’s about the same amount of blue as it looked when Rey and Chewbacca were going through the hyperspace tunnel at the end of The Force Awakens.
100% agree

Maybe it’s just the gif, but the shot of Luke turning his head around while R2 gets shot looks like maybe a frame or two is off in the rotoscoping around Luke’s helmet. There’s like a shadow or a bump or something. Might be worth taking a look at?
Everything else looks great. I’ve been patiently waiting to rewatch the original trilogy for Revisited and Harmy Despecialized 3.0 lol
There doesn’t seem to be any issue:
is this the bump you’re talking about:
because that’s just due to the curvature of Luke’s helmet.
All gorgeous, though I question the need for the yellow oval flashes when blades clash. I assumed you’d be removing those, since that’s not how light works!
can people just stop trying to debunk fantasy elements from a FANTASY film? Star Wars is set in its own universe with its own laws, that’s how sci-fi/fantasy works.
Btw, I am working on a fanedit which can be updated without any announcement when it’s released, but if I update Episode 4 (and probably do) and your edit is ready when that happens, can I use some footage of this edit for it?
sure.
There’s something that feels a bit odd about the new shot here, which I was only just able to put into words. The explosion appears stationary relative to the Death Star, which isn’t what would happen in a vacuum. In space, a body in motion would remain in motion, since there’s no air resistance to slow it down. This applies to the explosion just as much as the TIE fighter.
So in terms of realism, the first shot makes more sense, or at the very least doesn’t draw attention to the weird physics.
wookies also don’t exist.
Is anyone else seeing the pixelation?
edit: nvm it works now, guess it was just my setup.
I’ve added in the “A News Corporation Compamny®” in the opening logo
I don’t mean to be mean but why exactly did you put “A News Corporation Company®” back? That News Corporation doesn’t exist anymore and it is owned by Disney. (sorry if I sound like being mean).
Because it’s sentimental to the original version and the space looked kinda empty without it.
OK. I kind of agree.
thanks.
