oops sorry bout the edit.... damn forums should only allow one poster to be typing/editing at a time lol

no apologies necessary.....it's worse when the posts flood in faster than you can type, 'cos i usually can't be bothered using the quote....can get very confusing.....if anyone has a concrete timeline for how the dooku/grievous sequence unfolds i would be happy to hear it....

agreed, it does seem to me though, that obi wan should be unconscious during this duel so that he can remain unaware of anakin skirting so dangerously close to the darkside, and so that he doesn't witness palpatine being so, erm, sith-like.....we'll see....refresh my memory on whether the grievous fight happens before or after the dooku duel, or do we not know yet?.....

when u get time, head over to TFN and read JW Titus's fan novel. Alot of it comes from hyperspace sources, but the speculation is awesome. I highly reccommend reading the first part where Obi-Wan is knocked out, Anakin V Dooku, Obi-Wan V Grievous, and the Jedi's struggle to land the burning cruiser safely on Coruscant, its a good read😛 imho🙂 its fun to speculate!

Scramba, three words:

YOU KICK ARSE!!!!

"i've always thought that obi should be unconscious during the dooku bit so that palpatine could let it all hang out and be super evil with no witnesses..."

ooooo.....kinky 😉

CG created shots almost *always* look better in motion that as a screencap. Seeing it not in movement, and allowing you to analyze the details is not the way some of these quick shots of cgi were meant to be seen. It isn't even worth bringing it up that it "doesn't look real" or whatever, because you are not seeing it as its intended to be seen.

-V

that doesnt make sense. how is it that Cg isnt meant to look real when freeze framed when thats how they animate CGI sequences..,.. frame by frame? the point is that the goal of CGI is to make it realistic, and that means animating it frame by frame to confuse the eye so that if you did freeze it, you couldnt tell the difference between realism and CGI. if it doesnt look real frozen then it wont look any more real when played in sequence.

The purpose of CGI ANIMATION, is to look good ANIMATED, CGI drawings are a totally different thing, and usually they are not done fream by frame, they are 3d renderings, animated. they are meant to be viewed in motion when the eye does not view detail but only motion

hold on, thats not always true.
in extreme cases such as yoda fighting it is,
because he's just a blur, but if you watch it frame by frame,
he looks CG. not that he looked cheesey, but you can see
its CG.

dooku is just standing there, so what you see is pretty much what you will get, unless they havent finished rendering that shot, which is very possible. we have seen footage in trailers that have not been fully rendered and touched up.

the scene in ANH where han shoots greedo, if you watch it normally you cant really tell its fake, but if you watch it slowly, you can see han is a puppet. i find greivous's shot to be perfectly fine, i dont know what your all going on about.

If the CG stuff looks real enough I'm OK with it.

dude what you taking about?

han wasnt a puppet in that scene. they just clipped a path around him and scooted him over for a frame. it looks like absolute shit, but there is no puppet in that edit.

watch it at 1/4 or slower speed. han is a puppet i tell you! ill take a screenshot and post it tomorrow if i have to! his skin is all waxy and reflecting light when it shouldnt.

It's not a puppet, it's just crappy digital effects.

dammit. someone post a screenshot now.

why did lucas have to run that shot anyway? that part was fine without greedo shooting first. what was his intention?

i agree that its shit, but there is no puppet used for that shot.
and this is way off topic

i know, but can someone please tell me why he added in greedo shooting first? i dont know the answer.

George felt that the original scene blemished Han's character.

great pics 😄
