Oh man, I had totally forgotten about the Bothan opening idea. People said that while it would be cool, if done right, it wouldn't feature any of the main characters and that is a problem, as it's not how Star Wars works. Any ideas on how to solve this? 3PO is the only solution I can think of, but I don't know why he'd be there or how to get him to Tatooine.

The Rule of Two really does set up a nice tension. Both Sidious and Vader are talking about how Luke could be a powerful asset and all that stuff, all the time avoiding the topic of replacement. "Oh you know, he could be a powerful asset, but totally not a replacement for you. I'm not implying that idea at all!"

EDIT: In my defense, I don't think twister's images had loaded before I hit reply.

I don't think that's quite necessary. It would probably be fine for him to be "Lord Sidious" in the PT and never referred to that way in the OT. 

Two things:

1. Check out the shot of 3P0 with the skeleton. This shows the dirty look of that footage, yes?

2. Note the appearance of the Blockade Runner/Pirate Ship's prototype in that final card. Also, decapitated stormtrooper.

Oh, btw, I'm totally in. I can... Um... Well, I could probly sketch storyboards. I've done a little sound editing, but really only music. Oh, and I can write okay.

Right, this seems like a good way to build up a pile of resources for ROTJ edits. There might be a final cut resulting, but that almost seems secondary to providing editors with new footage to use.

By that logic, you have probably shaken the hand of everyone who ever lived in a handshaking culture.

So...that guy + bluescreen = another part of PT:R? One can dream.

 If they have metallic gloss, you probably can't really scan them properly.

Just thought I'd point out that in the world of trading cards, they'll sometimes release the metallic ones and the regular ones, because the world of collecting is insane. Obviously we want the regular type.

I think it would make a little more sense to have the Rebellion using a few Venator or Victory class ships than any Victories or older showing up on the Imperial side of things. That being said, having wedge-shapes on both sides, while maybe logical, would be visually confusing. When you're making a movie, having easy-to-understand visuals is far more important.

Puggo - If this were in Fan Edits, would it make more sense?

That ebay listing has the best photos of the cards I've found so far. No one seems to have ever scanned them in, unfortunately.

Yeah, the music didn't really fit well. It was action music, sure, but it was just not really the right tone for this. Hopefully I'll come up with something more constructive to say later? :-/

 but if it does not then it is non-canon

Oh gosh, I guess you haven't seen how many people on these boards deal with canon. Maybe start with http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/What-do-you-LIKE-about-the-EU/topic/10207/ ?

Anyone in here a really skilled puppeteer and/or latex artist? Anyone ever thought about replacing PT CG Yoda with a physical puppet?

What about droids? Aren't they sentient? Can I eat candy in the shape of droids?

There is no one pristine Tech print out there that we know of; not even a rumored one.  The print which showed up at the Senator Theater, for example, is about a C to C+ at best, having a lot of platter damage and a somewhat dodgy Reel 6, though people think that looks great. There are far better ones out there. And, if you were able to acquire multiple Tech prints of superior quality to the Senator, you could probably get about as close to definitive as is likely to be gotten...

Mike, how can I acquire multiple Tech prints of superior quality to the Senator?

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

I would certainly tone it down with the EU-ships (Victory Class, etc), if not just because too many different things will get cluttered pretty quickly. I definitely support resurrecting the B-Wing's Original Role.

I have had conversations with the people below.

So, you go to a lot of conventions.

I wish I could see what you guys see.....Clearly I don't have an eye for this sort of thing. To me it's the same identical pic. And that's with pressing my eyeballs up to an IPS screen. 

Take a look at Luke's face area. In the second pic, it's a teensy-weensy bit less blurry.

He's right. Definitely worth redoing all of the effects. Thanks, Angel.

As with all things Revisited, I hope the creed remains "Do it right, even it takes forever".

Just so you know, Mith, the Spanish "me gusta" has become a bit of a meme in English-speaking internet.

It's a slightly harsher edge, but it does seem to make some difference.

Using the deleted scenes from the first attempt at blowing up the generator to show the second attempt seems really great, even if we do lose "You rebel scum!" I'm still in favor of putting in more of "The Lost Rebels", but I certainly like this as a concept. It's about time someone actually put together some sort of loose cut after all this discussion.

Given that it's Cracked, strong probability of BS
