That's how it should look. They better do this stuff for Blu-Ray or else. I dare someone to fix the lightsabers for the carbonite freezing chamber fight from ep V and then post it. It always messes up the sabers because the red light coming from the floor.

@okobi

Thank you for the comment. I have the same opinion as you. When DVD was released, I was disappointed.

"Do or Do not. There is no try."

I think of the fix of special effects so. They should perfectly achieve the fix when declaring, "Special edition = Star Wars".

I look forward to the Blu-ray release and am worried similarly. Let's expect it of their good work .

Can you do a fixed version of the final battle in ROTJ?

this is the way it should be

Don't mean to be rude, but you made the blade wrong. You need to use transfer modes like "add" or "screen" in order to produce glowing objects. Because with these transfer modes, the background footage will actually be lightened up. In your effect, the blade darkens bright background elements instead because of its darker color. Again, no offense, take this as constructive criticism. But having an effect darken the footage when it's meant to resemble light is simply bad compositing.

I alway liked more the saber colors and shape in ANH

nice attempt but u added in the wrong ignition and it looks like hes waving a stick around.

[ArnoldTohtFan]

no doubt it looks better here than it ever has before, but I stand by what I've said before. they should just remove the jittery "blobs" and put in consistent cgi blades, its the only way to overcome this persistant problem.

Uh, how should I say this? It's a good attempt, but the blade is a little thin, and doesn't 'wave' much. Plus, the ignition--never mind that. Either way, I still like it.

THAT LOOKS GOOD :)

@pixbonomini I definitely agree with you here. As nice and smooth as the effort is here, kudos on the hard work, I prefer the slender and shimmering effect of the original trilogy lightsabers. They looked more dangerous that way. And I prefer more of an emphasis on a white core of light and a gentle aura of color rather than such saturated color. The old approach looked more like an archaic and deadly weapon that required mastery to handle. The new is just a glowing whiffle bat.

@pixbonomini Jesus, I remember when Star Trek fans were geeks and Star Wars fans were cool. Times have changed.
