Time

I think the laser is good but the tie fighter is not needed. But what I will say is that purple in the highlights needs rolling into white or yellow. This is the whole magenta highlights issue in full effect.

I think gout and 97 version it is not so magenta if at all?

ok, here I fixed the color:
old:

New:

Why don’t you like the tie fighter? it makes the shot more lively and less like a miniature shot.

I know it would be lots of work, but I wish you could implement this process for the lightsaber scene so there was red and green light on Luke and Vader

Adywan has already said that to do that the characters would need to be fully lit to add glow and light falloff, in both luke and Vader are in very deep shadow, so this would be impossible to do.

I lost my copy too, Ady did send me a DVD many many years ago when it first came out, and I’m dying to see it again after all this time. I can’t for the life of me find it!

Can you please post a link for me too?

I will say, that shot of the SSD going into the DS2… there is some weirdness, but that was still always one of my favorite shots. But… I guess thats what I have 4K83 for. Can’t wait to see what you do with the whole movie. I actually endorse you leaning heavily into CG and a modernized look. Now that we have the theatricals in 4K, I want to see the completely modernized versions of the films, CG and all. I want something that fits in with the modern series.

Now, I wish that all the new movies and shows would go crazy with practical effects and always shooting on grainy 35mm film etc etc… but thats not the world we’re in. We’re in the world where they’re all digital. So I’d like to have versions of the OT to reflect that. My plan for my kids has always been, watch the originals theatrical (or even just “Star Wars” and “Empire”), then start the whole series over in chronological order and watch the entire series, shows and all, that way.

Well, curated fan edits of the entire series 😃

I don’t think that’s the point of revisited. Adywan’s goal is to polish and update the already excellent film. To “revisit” it without breaking the films style. Not to modernize it. Lucas already tried that, and we all know what that yielded.

Depends on the beer :p

Great analysis, cheers! It was a bit too simplistic how I presented it, I admit. I just always “felt” the SSD was way too small in that impact shot. Your math confirms it. For the SSD be that size in the shot and from that camera point, it would definitely crash beyond the ‘horizon’. Not an exiting angle so I’m curious what Ady will do.

Yeah, it was a good spot though, with the scaling issues. The destruction did always feel a bit, underwhelming and I think you hit the nail on the head why. The SSD was to small. Idk how up to date it is but Adywan did have “New super-stardestroyer destruction.” on his changes list. So time will tell.

I like how Ady keeps us on edge, most editors (including me) post previews of all their changes as soon as they’re complete. (putting off any real reason to rewatch it at the end) but Adywan likes to surprise us but still likes to take feedback if prompted.
