It would benefit from somehow masking out the kids on the walkway, but other than that it’s really great

If I had the time, this is the project I would work on. Unfortunately, I don’t even have time 😦

Also the holograms on this show are more colour than blue. This seems like a big overlooked change

If you mean the communications holograms (since multi-colored holos have been around since the Rebel Briefing in ROTJ), this has at least been a thing since the ending of Solo

The weird horny parts of SOTE are what audiences today are missing.

100%

Rey and Ben’s kiss was the best part of TROS because like FINALLY I’m like dust over here

I know many people hate it but I kind of agree.

Great News! You no longer need to fix Luke’s “Force Kick”! It’s been retconned!

That should save you 20 minutes.

Luckily those books aren’t even really canon

They are.

Oh shoot, he’s right

Tarkin & Leia looking lobsterish, skin tone needs to be reigned in a touch

Not to me they don’t. I wonder how your monitor is calibrated?

I’m genuinely surprised!

One thing TLJ carried over from TFA that did bother me was the fixation with Anakin’s lightsaber.

Seriously, what the hell happened to Luke’s lightsaber? It only appears in flashbacks.

It wouldn’t surprise me if he threw it over a cliff too

Hard to pirate without a source.

There is a lot of sources for Disney owned films, 4K, BD, DVD, VHS and film. If they never made any physical releases ever again, all of these sources become more attractive to collectors and their prices would rise. Lets say, 50 or 100 years from now they haven’t released anything… can you imagine how much would e.g. classic Disney cartoons cost on the secondary market? Probably hundreds if not thousands of dollars per movie, all which they would lose. Even today there have been DVDs that command hundreds of dollars on the secondary market because they have not seen a re-release since.

All true, but irrelevant to non-collectors (ie most people)

But not to Disney when they could get some of that money by relesing their properties. Also one could argue that there are others than collectors who would like to own Disney classics in the future as well, that is normal families.

I feel like the fact that they’re stopping maybe indicates you’re overestimating the size of the collector market

What is the status with defeating the DRM on D+ anyway? Is that pretty well sorted by now? Hard to pirate without a source.

He looks like a pale Rebels’ Thrawn

We don’t need another of those connections that offer nothing except shrinking the Star Wars universe even more.

Let people just be random people. Like it was originally in 1977. Luke being a nobody from nowhere is far more powerful than him being the lost son of space Goebbels.

She’s not even a nobody! She’s Mon Mothma’s cousin!

One vlogger I follow has a theory that Kleya is a former handmaiden of Padme’s.
And they revisited for filming season 2 a location that was part of Naboo in the PT.

It would be pretty weird for the queen of Naboo to have a Chanrillian handmaid, not to mention a strange and unnecessary connection to a dead character who has little to do with this storyline (yes, I know, Padme’s a part of the initial meetings that lead to the secret pact to combat the Emperor, but she then dies shortly thereafter)

The one OT movie in which Artoo never goes inside the Falcon, and Threepio only does so off-screen

I’ve still never seen Temple of Doom. Maybe someday.

I’m sorry, but I just can’t get behind an elderly Christopher Walken as the Emperor.

Why not?

Less than 1gb??? I may need to download this just to see how bad the picture quality looks

I don’t see how mkv vs mp4 would make a difference. MKVs are just containers for other formats, which could be using the same (or probably better) compression algorithm as an mp4

I’m oke with the new HDR grades. They look fine to me, but I prefer the original look for all three films.

Ok but what about the sudden swap from Day to Night?

We see the big tree roots at the base “Daytime” when pan up the bigature model of the winding stairs around the trunk it’s night.

How about grading the first shot as night for continuity?

This feels a quite choppy otherwise…

Isn’t this just because they’ve been walking all day through the woods before reaching Caras Galadhon?

This is all probably because the version of the script from mid-March 1982, before the final round of rewrites on the Endor sequence, reads a bit different here.

Note that, in addition to the Imperial facility being much bigger and more active than it ends up in the final film, there’s no description of Vader exiting his shuttle. Instead, the viewer is supposed to discern that Vader obediently arrived on the moon immediately after his conversation with the Emperor earlier, and has been waiting around for Luke to turn himself in.

Frankly, I think it makes more sense that way, and avoids the same “We must always see Vader travel between locations” thinking that lead to the addition of some things to the end of ESB in the SE. And the musical cue could work with just a better establishing shot of the Imperial facility.

Here is the podrace in full. I replaced the music and sound effects at the beginning so I could remove some of the racer introductions and Jar Jar shenanigans, removed the whole flag parade part, removed Quadineros’ pod not starting, added some deleted scene stuff, removed the sequence where Anakin’s engine becomes detached, cut some reactions/dialogue, etc. A ton of work went into this, and hopefully you won’t actually notice any of it.

This has always been one of my favorite sequences in all of Star Wars, so it was really fun playing with it.

Have you ever noticed that the part Sebulba breaks/bends-down is prominently visible, intact and in its original position, in all the subsequence shots during his convo w/ Ani?

Skybatman said:

thanks guys lets expect that ashoka is good too

Difficult to say. Totally different showrunner, etc.

Does it get into the different rewrite/revision dates of various scenes/portions of the script?
