Nice! Is that the one that The Ones made?

Nope, also he is giving sidious a blue lightsaber, if i recall in the original script, palpatine takes anakins lightsaber and fight with it.

4puaVsdKUuk

Awesome!

Glad to see this finished in one form or another.



Would've messed up Obi getting Anakin's old saber though.


Still, a great effort.

The effect looks just as good as Obi's rotoscoping.

Looks sweet. Well done.

A masterpiece.

Well... not exactly. Hayden's acting still sucks.

Well done, but always better in Blue vs blue.

Yup. Because this would mean: Luke with a red lightsabre. Let's redo ANH and ESB as well...

Kinda hard to fix that.

Indeed.

Quite.

Heh. That was pretty bad-ass. Nicely done.

Now all they need is General Grievous having 4 red light-sabers.

Looks cool, but makes no sense.

Didn't they somehow switch lightsabers during that table battle because of some cut scene before that? I remember reading something about that somewhere. So wouldn't Anakin have a blue saber when he's choking Obi-Wan? Then they switch back.

Of course, this is ridiculously picky!

Why there isn't a black lightsaber, or white, some more colors.

Doesn't matter in the final scene, does it.

No, because blue vs blue actually makes a statement in SW.

Friend vs. Friend
Brother vs. Brother
Blue vs. Blue

It would be like putting Batman vs. Robin.

Exactly. There was sarcasm in that remark... for those that didn't notice.

There was sarcasm in your "Exactly" remark?

I thought of thatm, but always considered that they grabbed the right one.

Yes, but there is a glitch there where OB1 holds his sabre halfway in the wide shot and higher up in the close shot. Can't really see if the sabres are really different.

Didn't notice that glitch, when does it happen?

In the Mustafar control room. It's rather a famous mistake, eitehr about the change of sabres or OB1 holding it. Couldn't quite figure it out.

Hmm...I will have to check that out.

You will.

It's difficult to spot I mussay. Good thing they were the same color lightsabers.

Hehehe... quite.

It would be cool if they could figure it out. Then I'd know for sure where & when exactly the lightsabers were switched.

And then your life would be complete?

What does it matter?

Something else to make fun of Lucas for?

His flanel shirts?

Those remind me of old farmers. So yeah, that could work too.

The Big Flanelled One.

lol

Better than the Chosen One.

Only a bit better though.

It's enough.

Ot could still be better though.

Always.

I still think it could have been a better dual

Maybe if Hayden would have acted a little more interestingly.

How could he have? It was a duel...not too much can go on other than smacking at each other with their lightsabers.

"You underestimate my POOHWWERRRRRRR..."


THat could have been better.

Meh. That line was rather predictable, if anything.

For starters, yes. And then there was the delivery, which didn't help.

Yeah, but if he overdramatised it like that, it would have been more cheesy.

He did overdramatise it.

It's just interesting, that's all. We've seen the movies so often now that whenever a mistake is coming in the dvd, we all wait for it, like the stormtrooper bumping his head. And the fact that Lucas did a good job of hiding the switched lightsabers is just another mcguffin when you've seen the movie before.

There should have been more talking, more convincing from Obi-Wan to Anakin, that he comes back to the light, that was missing.

Yeah. Now that I think about it, you're right...

What else could there have been though? Anakin attacked first.

That's not what a McGuffin is about...

McGuffin?

Movie mechanism. Alfred Hitchcock's favorite. He explained it like this:

It might be a Scottish name, taken from a story about two men in a train. One man says, 'What's that package up there in the baggage rack?' And the other answers, 'Oh that's a McGuffin.' The first one asks 'What's a McGuffin?' 'Well' the other man says, 'It's an apparatus for trapping lions in the Scottish Highlands.' The first man says, 'But there are no lions in the Scottish Highlands,' and the other one answers 'Well, then that's no McGuffin!' So you see, a McGuffin is nothing at all.

Again, that's not what a McGuffin is... A McGuffin is nothing but an excuse to start the story. THe trick is losing it somewhere down the road.

I don't get it anymore! You said a Mcguffin is nothing!

It is nothing... but it's something. Remember the story about the case in the train: there was something there, but it was nothing (important).

To explain. Take Hitchcock's fantastic classic North by Northwest. Roger Thornhill gets kidnapped because he is taken for someone else. The original reason for the kidnapping is never really explained. It is done away with halfway the movies with the remark that it was about state secrets. Ergo: we never find out what it was about (because Hitchcock found that boring) and he dumped the McGuffin (i.e. the very thing that set the entire movie into motion) with a casual remark like that. Classic McGuffin, ergo, the switched lightsabres are NO MCGuffin because they bear no relevance to the story. It's just a mini plotpoint that was discarded in editing and had to be covered up. That's what editing is all about: covering up what didn't work (yet).

I get it!

Yaaayyy!

Heh. Here's another "Red vs Blue" I just found...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJOGMQJeQjQ

It's Luke having a blue lightsaber against Vader in RotJ like he did in ESB...

Now, why isn't there a General Grievous edit one yet?

Now this is just messed up...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wtrc8DCvfdo

>_> I guess you would call that Purple vs Blue...

What the heck is the point???????????

Red vs. Blue! I love that series! It's great.

And queeq, you have to start at the bginning to get any of it. It is basically two teams against each other who actually do very little fighting and get themselves into awkward situations, very humorous.

I know the beginning... it just seems rather pointless. Use other colors for instance. Blue is a bit boring.

I still like to see a blacklight sabre in operation.

It doesn't really need a point, it is funny.

But then you wouldn't be able to see it if it were dark.

Well, it might. I'm still working on teh concept. I think you won't see the blade, but you will see the glow. I think that is kinda cool.

Hmm, sounds neat, so there would be an outline glow around it or...

Yeah... that'd be the idea. I had a character in the RPG once that had a blacklight sabre. I liked that.

What game?

RPG.. here on KMC. But it was ages since I played last.

Wow, I should really visit other places in here...

You should.

Anywhere you recommend?

No, I got it once via a old ex-KMC mod.

I see.

Yes.

I am assuming he is not here anymore?

You should make one to his specifications.

Ridley Prime makes one to your liking.

Um, if it's something I can do with a GIMP/Photoshop edit, sure. Then again, I'm not that experienced at this kind of stuff.

I can make lightsabres... the thing with this one is that I have to figure out how it should look.. The blade could be transparant or black, but the glow would be dark purple... Dunno, have to look into that.

You should and then post it.

Make the glow black, like Mace had purple, you make it black, or white, or silver, silver look real good in KOTOR2.

I used red in KOTOR 1 and 2...

I played more then once, so i used different color every time, but only if i played as a Jedi, following the light side, if i played as a Sith, i always had red, you have to follow tradition.

Black doesn't glow... *sigh*

Meh. I like the lightsaber color style (good guys have blue, green, or purple ; bad guys have red because they're the cooler ones) just the way it is, but that's just me...

If i was a character in SW, i would have a silver one and be a Jedi ofcourse.

Heh. Guess you got me there.

Then again, according to this pic from that wiki article...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Black_light_bulb.jpg

A black light bulb is actually pretty violet/purple to the human eye, so I guess a lightsaber of that color would be much like Mace's, yes? >.>

Oh man, you got queeq.

Well, I thought of that of course. But it's not really purple. It's a particular ultraviolet kind of light, that doesn't really emit light, it just lights up particular light areas. So my idea was to come up with a blacklight sabre. That might have a purple glow, but not as light emitting as Mace's.

I doubt you ever saw blacklight in action. At a frat house I used to be a member of, they had the toilet lit only by blacklight. They also made the toilet seat black, you couldn't see a damn thing except for the essentials: the toiletpaper and the pee.

But yeah. You're right. I haven't seen blacklight used in action. Thank you for teaching me about this though. Really.

Hehehe

Cuz thats the only time it happens in the saga.

Think how the affect of the doubled bladed light saber in EP. 1 would change if everyone used it.

Unless you count the few times that Obi-Wn and GG clashed blue/blue sabers. I still wish GG had red.

Originally posted by Sith Master X

Same here ...

Even if he wasn't a Sith, red is just more suitable for his character.

Originally posted by Sith Master X

Exactly. He's the closest thing there is to a Sith anyhow (and I'm talkin' about the original version of Grievous from the Clone Wars series ; not the weakened version from episode III)...

Originally posted by Sith Master X

The whole point of his charcater using those sabers is to kill another jedi with very weapon he pried from anothers dead hand. Thats his attitude, and what he obvoiusly prides himself about.


He dosn't get a red one cuz he ain't a sith.

I understand that too, and it makes sense. It's just too bad he had to use a "good color", if you would call it that.

Yeah...

Then again, although red's my favorite color, I think it would look kind of lame if Grievous used either 2 of 4 (depending on how many arms he's using) red lightsaber. I'm beginning to think it would look cooler if when Grievous is using 2 arms, he uses 1 red lightsaber & the other be either blue or green, and when he's using 4 arms, have 2 red lightsabers & the other 2 be blue and green (needless to say, it would look weird if he had a purple one like Mace's).

That would definitely look the coolest IMO, especially if they were to edit/recolor it to be like that in either the Obiwan vs Grievous scene in RotS or the parts where Grievous fights in the Clone Wars series.

Sawrry.

Don't be sorry. Makashi is a bit grudgy... never mind him.

I was glad you heard something new... my young apprentice.

Here we go again. *slaps forehead*

Hehehe

I am too late. Yeah, a black light saber would have to be made out of something that absorbs light, like a singularity saber. Now wouldn't that be cool, a light saber that has a blade made of a black hole? Anyway, to have a light saber that is as dark as possible, in other words, one that is as blue shifted as possible on the EMS (electromagnetic spectrum) it would be a purplish color. (Black lights are actually purple lights. (That frat house story is just awesome.))

Back on topic, that is just amazing that that guy took the time to redo that sequence...just awesome that he has that ability.

I was never a tech guy. I could never do that.

Me either, i am more of a caveman type.

See the Obi Wan vs. Anakin lightsaber duel the way it should have been! After 3 long months of re-editing lightsaber footage from Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, I present to you the product. A sith isn't a sith without a red lightsaber.

I disagree with this fellow here. It's not like the other fights; it's not Jedi vs Sith; it's friend vs friend, brother vs brother. Not a simple good vs evil fight like with Yoda and Palpatine.

But he did some nice work with the lightsaber.

Nice work but obsolete.

Explain how it is obsolete...seriously, I do not know in what context you are meaning that.

Meaning that it does not really matter, it is purely for our enjoyment, that nobody who doesn't visit this forum will never see.

HEhehe...

No obsolete that is is only fun to look at. The two blue sabres meant something, Anakin wielding a red sabre doesn't add or mean anything.

It means he is a Sith.

But we already know that. So what's the point?

That its official.

Oh... party time.

Exactly.

, evrybody dance.

No dancing...

Why, i thought GG was a great dancer, because of his incredible agility.

He is, but when he starts, you can't stop him.

And why is that?

Well, because he doesn't dance very often, he has to get it out of his system when he starts, so that he doesn't spontaneously start dancing.

To bad, i was looking forward seeing him in action, dancing action that is.

Not on this day.

I thought that he would be happy to dance, tho show of and to get all the ladies.

He is married.

To whom? Its probably a gay relationship, isn't it?

G: "I'm an excellent dancer."

Bet he's a great pocket calculator at the Black Jack tabel too.
