I read a list this guy made of visual and audio changes, and there were more than a hundred. Scenes have been added, recut, and deleted, and (most importantly) everything isn't blue.

Apr 24, 2009 This makes the exisiting STAR WARS: THE SPECIAL EDITION look. It's a 'purist' version that. Adywan's Star Wars Revisited. May 22, 2014 While I am a purist at heart. I will gladly take Adywan's version over the Special Edition or Blu-Ray any day. Adywan's Star Wars Revisited.

Of special note for this mod is that the real rebel engine glow is bright red, not bubblegum pink. Generally I really liked what this guy did and it's extremely impressive considering it's just one fan, but the sound effects are mixed way too high and the music is way too low, at least on the youtube uploads. That might be a product of the sound being remixed for 5.1 or something though. I read a list this guy made of visual and audio changes, and there were more than a hundred.

I didn't think there was anything wrong with that, but that's just personal preference. The change in color looks fine but I prefer the pink. Also the Rebel laser bolts that were more on the orange side than the some of the ones that appear red from the movies. Never understood why some of them didn't match up with the others.

Maybe they could be a little more subtle, but that's truly nitpicking. It's fine the way it is. I only watched the beginning and the Battle of Yavin, but I can say I was very impressed. I liked the cuts to the different troopers on the corvette before the door was breached, cranks up the tension just a bit. I also liked the added troops in the background.

I liked the added laser bolts coming from the Falcon during her getaway and the moving starfield that implies the ship is in motion. The hyperspace field was a very nice touch after they get away. However, I didn't like pacing of the Battle of Yavin and the additional music that was added. I think there were plenty of shots that were changed from the original that could've made fit it in with the score and get the point across. That initial shot of the TIEs could've been tightened up.

It's too long. The music is very important, and I think that's what throws everything off, but I liked how much bigger battle it seems with all those fighters buzzing around. Love how the superlaser looks like it's going to fire before it blows and the new countdown and briefing holos, makes me wonder why this stuff wasn't in the Special Edition. Boris Fx 10 Crack Mac Photoshop. Bobby Bland Two Steps From The Blues Rapidshare Movies. I actually liked most of the Special Edition's enhancements.

It's the change to plot I can't stand. I wish they would release the Original Trilogy unmodified but restored like the Special Edition. Ah, there we go.

A fine edit indeed. Color correction, rotoscoping, and recompositing are all equal or better to ILM's own efforts. There were lots of small, subtle enhancements that really pick up the overall quality. Visible backgrounds in the Battle of Yavin and the Death Star establishing shots were tremendously immersive. Blinking eyes and more facial flexibility in the cantina were also really nice. It's a nice middle ground between ANH's rubber masks, ROTJ's muppets, and the SE's overblown CGI.

The redone explosions for Alderaan and the Death Star are pure win. And the remodeled Death Star in the Rebel briefing has irritated me for my entire life--the one legitimate use of using CGI to update an effect, and Lucasfilm ignored it! That, alone, would be enough of an update for me. My only nitpicks are the choice and use of music (Imperial March comes out of nowhere in Yavin, Battle of the Heroes needed to be remixed if it was to be used with Vader and Obi-Wan) and that we don't get that last shot of Peter Cushing (Tarkin) just before he gets blown to bits. The Obi-Wan-Vader duel and the Yavin dogfight also need some better editing but he was just making do with what footage he had, I suppose. Overall the movie's been updated to fill out the backgrounds and give it another coat of polish, and it's a much more loving and conservative edit than Lucas' own.
