Although I agree with you mth, I hated the idea of Anakin building 3p0 so much I'd be willing to take the lesser of two evils to get away from it.

Plus , this isn't about whether we should take 3p0 out , but how. Trooperman has already stated that he's changed AOTC so Anakin doesn't build him. So we need to find a way to make that match and ID and I decided it would be easier to just take him out.

Thanks everyone for commenting, although it didn't liven up the thread as much as I had hoped. As soon as I get together with mth and go through the edit again I'll post updates to the clip, but I don't think I'll be posting anymore for a while. Seems I'm the only one that thought it would be a good idea.

Oh well,

Keep in mind these are very rough, some of the dialogue is there , some is not. The new effects are first generation. Some of the editing is harsh and the picture quality is low to keep file sizes down.

Also, I'm just the editor. If you don't like something blame MTH or Commander Courage.

Time to inject some life into the thread!! This will give everybody something to argue, complain and just plain bitch about for days.

This link is for the last part of the script that mth posted.

Finished up the last bit of script that mth posted last night. Everything went together real well.

Everything seems to be going fairly smooth at this point.

I think putting Dooku on the Jedi Council is too radical. He is supposed to have too radical ideas to be on the Council ... but still influential and therefore in the midst of things anyway.

I would have to agree with this. The more I think about it the more it just doesn't work for me. I think him being at the funeral would be perfect.

Ive captured all the cutscenes from Episode III - The Video Game, and am in talks with someone to author it with half-decent meuns. I've also captured Rebel Assault II, which as a game is noteworthy due to its live action actos, and Darth Vader with lines by James Earl Jones.

Put me on the list for wanting those!! I would love to have the cutscene of dooku from revenge of the sith to use in my edit.

What kind of quality are the cutscenes from rots game? Dvd or close?

Why do we have to stick with the idea of him being banished for clumsiness?

I agree we need to calm down some of it, but the problem with making him Billy bad ass is his actions and facial expressions say, "I'm an idiot."

Has anybody actually watched the full screen version?? I'm thinking the full screen may not have all the closeups we think it does. Such as the reveal scene with obi and qui-gon. The focus is on Obi-wan, so it's possible the fs will have a closeup of him and qui-gon's dialogue off screen or half of his face chopped off.

Just something I thought of today.

Commander, I agree.

The droid shot in the middle of the scene really kills it. Would have been nice to see the entire landing. Oh well.

I just cropped the whole shot from where they walk into the room until it cuts nute. It's closer to what you guys want, but I don't know.

I haven't done anything with slowing down the landing of the ship yet. I can't remember which musical cue is playing when the falcon lands on the death star so I'll have to check that out. I should probably just go ahead and rip all six movies and soundtracks to the hard drive for instant access.

Commander Courage: Yes it's possible, but it doesn't take much cropping at all to make it look like crap. 720x480 isn't much to crop with. Now if we had high-def

Wow, the possibilities.

Must have sleep

Talk to everybody tomorrow.

I'd like to see how trooperman used some of the full screen footage. I can cut inbetween the full screen and widescreen shots, but it just doesn't look good to me. Most of the time there is a cut where you would want a close-up so it's no big deal. I'll have to play with it a little more.

Work? Yep, everyday!! I sit in front of a computer most of the day looking up Mopar parts so I'm usually available.

Just threw together a rough edit of what MTHaslett posted. Getting a closer shot of Qui-Gon when he pulls his hood down will be hard to do seamlessly. That is all one shot and when I tried to split the video up to crop the frame it was jumpy. Reminded me of camcorder footage. I can crop the entire sequence. I'll see how that looks.

and the full screen version of the dvd would be very helpful about now.

I'll try to get a clip up tomorrow. Depends on how busy I am at work.

And lastly, the end of the cut scenes documentary on the TPM bonus disc has extra footage of the space battle and more Darth Maul fight footage. Are you planning on using that?

That footage is great, but a soundtrack would have to be created for it, since somebody is talking while they are showing the clips. You can hear it though, so someone would at least have something to go on.

I just watched the clip of qui-gon in return of the jedi. That was great, whoever did it. Can anybody link me to a thread or tutorial on the web of how to do this? There are a couple of places in my own edits that I would love to be able to do that very thing.

Love this thread. I don't agree with alot of things in it, but it is very interesting indeed!

Does anyone know if the aotc trailers were ever released anywhere in 5.1? I'd like to use some dialogue from one of the trailers for my edit without having all the background music mixed in with it. I've looked around on here and movie list forums , but I can't find any info.

Thanks,
