Sy Snoodle's backing singers [From Left to
right] Rystall , Greeta and Lyn Me |
SY
SNOODLES & MAX REBO BAND George Lucas
had always planned a large musical number to
appear during the first part of Return Of The
Jedi. He was always unhappy with the original
performance of Sy Snoodles and the Max Rebo Band,
he felt that Sy's limited movements (due to
puppetering) were not satisfactory and the
musical number not lively enough. ILM have solved
that problem and have come up with JEDI ROCKS!, a
bouncy blues alien song, sung again by Sy
Snoodles. New live-action shots have repopulated
Jabba's sanctum with a number of new aliens
partaking. The puppet Sy Snoodles has been
completely replaced with a CG version which
performs many dance movements and performs
alongside backing singers Rystall (which we see
Boba Fett flirt with!!) , Greeta (a Rodian like
Greedo in ANH) and Lyn Me (who looks like Oola)[See
Left], there are also other new additions to
the musicians in Max Rebo's jizz-wailing band!
The entire act is very amusing and especially
popular with young Star Wars fans. The
unfortunate feeding of the dancer Oola to the
rancor has been re-done, we get a better view of
what unfortunate end the dancer meets. The new
footage was filmed in 1996, Lucasfilm found the
same woman who played Oola as she was the sister
of someone who worked for the company and was
still in good shape and so naturally was able to
repeat her dance movements for the special
edition. |
The Sarlac has
now developed a CG beak and looks more repulsive
|
SARLAC
The almighty Sarlac has been CG tweaked![See
Left] , it now has developed much more
tentacles and a distinctive beak which makes it
look more vile and repulsive. |
More
spectacular celebrations on Coruscant
|
FINAL SCENE [See
Left] Probably the most important
addition of the entire Special Edition
trilogy. The Film's final scene, in which
the Rebels celebrate their defeat of the
Emperor and his evil Empire on Endor ,
has been digitally expanded to look more
spectacular and includes galas at three
new locations, with fireworks exploding
over Cloud City on Bespin as a cloud car
zooms by, a T-16 Skyhopper weaving around
buildings as confetti falls over Mos
Eisley and a simular scene over coruscant
(This looks REALLY amazing and previews
what is yet to come from the prequels) as
citizens revel under its moons. Coruscant
is the setting for the prequel trilogy
and Producer Rick Mccallum has stated
that there is a connection between the
images we see on coruscant in ROTJ SE and
at the beginning of the prequel Episode
One. In addition, the Ewok song, regarded
by many as "Awful" has
been replaced with a new song which is a
great improvement,The John Williams
Composition does a great job in bringing
across the emotion of happiness felt by
the rebels due to their victory. |
