C3: ROTS Footage at ILM Model Discussion

Posted By Britany on April 22, 2005

Tim Gunn writes:

I don't know if you guys went to the ILM Model Discussion in 500 Ballroom tonight, but Rick McCallum showed up and showed his reel. I was at the Ryan Church thing, which was sweet, but this was so much cooler because it was full Digital pristine projection and huge. They were having problems with the sound, which is why they showed it in the first place: as a test. The crowd went nuts, and it was a small crowd.

Highlights from the footage, which will be shown throughout the weekend (spoilers - highlight to read):

  • The lightsaber fight between Anakin and ObiWan is FAST! Those guys twirl like no other!
  • Lots of Kashyyk.
  • Lots of space battle goodness.
  • Sidious's shuttle, carrying crispy Anakin, landing on Coruscant at the medical center.
  • First shots of Tantive IV landing on Alderaan. And wow does that look great!
  • Padme's funeral at the end
  • Yoda and Sidious in the Senate. Too cool for words. Yoda knocking Sidious back with his own lightning. Yoda hurling a pod. The full sequence of Yoda getting hurled back by force lightning (from long trailer).
  • Bail approaching the Clone Troopers at the temple.
  • Palpatine getting lighting deflected back at him by Mace in their fight.
  • Grievous fighting ObiWan on Utuapau. I'm a total believer on Grievous now. Too sweet.
There was no sound for this presentation. Awesome!!!

Reported by Daryl McLeese

I happened to be in the right place at the right time. Rick
just arrived and wanted to test a large portion of footage that would
be
presented to all during the rest of celebration starting on Friday.
The
presentation of footage did lack sound but was amazing and had many
great scenes of the opening space battle featuring Anakin, the Yoda
and Sidious battle, Yoda on Kashyyyk, many scenes of Grievous,
and a huge chunk of the long awaited final fight.

Daryl McLeese adds:

The film is DONE. Rick did say that Lucas and himself watched the final digital copy on Wednesday, both being well pleased, along with Steven Spielberg who gave it two thumbs up.
