You know, I never explicitly realized how different the two are. Anybody know good references for their differences?
Not sure why the Rebel Commandos are arresting Luke, but I'd love to see more of them.
I wonder if Criterion would do the trilogy, were Lucas willing.

I'm glad he likes it and I'm glad he took at least some pics :-) But it's a pity he didn't know before, not only could he have taken higher quality pics but he could also have taken pics of some more original matte paintings, as those would have been an invaluable source for this kind of thing :-(
Believe me, with a little more planning, notice and awareness of this site, I would have tried to get an HD camcorder on a tripod into that place. Or something. That would have been nice.
I keep my friend who took those Technicolor Screening pics posted on when his stuff gets used, and he's amazed at this. He also wishes he had known about the want for this sort of thing so he could have used a tripod, less off-center. But so it goes...
Potentially my mistake, then. In that case, who does A/V right?
I think I've said this before: I think they should probably let The Criterion Collection handle the OT restoration.
Oh gosh, the Bongos. That's perfect.
Deleted scenes, though....

To be honest with you, I have deleted ALL V3 files from my hard drives, after I watched the samples of this on my HDTV, I lost ALL interest in the V3 DVD's
Oh man, we're gonna have to start a new site! originaloriginaltrilogy.com, dedicated to preserving and archiving the work done at originaltrilogy.com before it gets deleted!
Well, I guess that answers RedLetterMedia's great question! Who is the protagonist of the PT? Yoda. Yoda is the protagonist.
So yeah, Disc 8 is the one to care about. Well, that and the colars. But basically Disc 8.
Well, the timer hit 0....and we got a blank page.
Ooooh gosh the gang's all here...
Will you be correcting the starfield to at least be the right brightness, if not the same stars?
Never mind.... you'd think I might have realized it was a different shot.
To be honest, I think I prefer this scene without the fog, red lights, etc.
I guess I had some small hope that the photo was a preview.

So... those of you who know what you're talking about... how do the colors look?
When I have more to say, I suppose I will

It's a Clone-Wars era fanfic comic... but that page that I linked to? It provides a pretty good fix to the midichlorian debacle.

Comparing the honorable effort of savestarwars.com to RedLetterMedia "reviews", and calling the latter an "excellent work" is an offense to the former.
I think you underestimate the quality of RedLetterMedia's work. Obviously it's a very different product than savestarwars.com, but it's proven far more effective at demonstrating to people the faults of the PT than savestarwars.com has ever been at convincing people that OT-preservation is a serious issue. It's not an offense to the former unless you've got some really bizarre Klingon-style honor system and you either exalt ssw.com beyond what it deserves or unvervalue RLM (or both). savestarwars.com is just a website, and so is RLM.
Here's some great Ralph McQuarrie art that is undoubtedly from the B-Wings sequence that got cut when they couldn't properly composite the B-Wings. This one, meanwhile, is closer to what we got. Both taken from this site.
This claims to be a storyboard of Mon Calamari Cruisers bombarding the surface of DSII, taken from this site though the H in the corner suggest it's from ye olde StarWars.com.

You catch on pretty quick.
eiyosus, you're in the wrong thread (whether you know it or not). You want http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/The-Big-ESB-Reveal/topic/12783/

I do like the idea of the 451236 order, as a sort of... well, it's the best we can do.
As for plans like Bingo's & Ady's... I'll believe it when I see it. So please, I'd love to see it!
:(
Did no one read my missive? Or was it simply not on-topic since it wasn't about fan edits of the existing footage?
I think I somehow missed it on the first read-through, but I've just read it and I like it. However, I think a mulligan-trilogy would be even more difficult to pull of than fanedits, wouldn't it? I'm interested in fanedits, because they at least seem doable.
