It's surprising just how "no frills" these docs are, realy fly-on-the-wall type stuff just presenting moments from during production as it happened. Very few interviews to camera, just pure observational documentation. Fascinating stuff, and completely unlike most of the slick cut-down promo puff pieces you get these days.

"The people", and RLM betrayed Lucas, and are mostly responsible for irrational hate towards Prequels, and responsible for Lucas quitting Star Wars and selling it to Di$ney, who also betrayed George and took a big dump over Star Wars saga.

Zylar Adama I think it’s evident from all of the prequel BTS that these movies were not a collaborative effort or a typical filmmaking environment. Our pal Evergreen here is just making a conclusion based on what they have seen. If you think that the job of the crew is solely to “please the only right person” I think you misunderstand what the process of filmmaking is like and may be putting George on a pedestal.

George took so much shit for these prequels but I swear when he was talking about Yoda and how people wanted him to look more like the puppet again and he seemed to totally love this character and was eager to satisfy I smiled. George actually takes in the feedback from the fans regardless of how the movies turned out. He seems like he was really trying to please everyone and THAT might have been the real issue.

Also you need to consider the fact that you and others just did not bother to think about the lines or do research to find similar lines in movies that are well thought of for their editing and/or writing.

The journey begins much earlier than the prequels. Star Trek II and IV, Young Sherlock Holmes, The Abyss (first photorealistic CG integrated into a scene), then T2, then Jurassic Park (photorealistic creatures). By 1993 it had been established firmly as a viable effects tool. ILM then used the SW special editions as a ramp-up for the level of ambition that Lucas had in mind for the prequels.

@@CaughtInTheLoop I was ok with it because they always presented the lightsaber as "a Jedi's weapon" Maybe it could have been executed a little better, but I thought that using the force to be a powerful jedi warrior when typically see you as a feeble old man was kind of awesome. And he's small, of course his still would be mad fast. But like I said, the execution could have been a little bit better. People have problems with Yoda and Palpatine with sabers because they see them as these mystical beings "beyond trivial toys" (maybe not you, but I've seen that type of opinion before) but Lucas always explicitly said all Jedi had sabers, why would Yoda be different? I could maybe understand why it's weirder for Palpatine to have a saber though

Almost 2 PAGES. We did the math and he averaged 3 movies a year.

His fans should should have been happy to see him and been understanding that, despite his physical limits he still wanted to do whatever possible to be in this movie.

I feel guilty in saying that, now after his passing, I especially appreciate finding the clips and insider commentary of the late Sir Christopher Lee beginning at 17:01. "Again, it comes down to performance, performance, performance. You have to have a very vivid imagination. If you have that as an actor anyways it's a help. You've got to make the audience believe what you're saying is true and what you're doing could happen. It's a terrific challenge it's an even bigger challenge when in a sense they know it can't... but during that hour and a half or two hours... maybe it can." - Sir Christopher Lee (1922-2015) A great storyteller even in a behind the scenes documentary.

@@sirpancherto sirpancherto On the one hand there are very few "full CGI sets" in the Prequels. In Phantom Menace there's only one, which was certain parts of the pod race environment. In Ep2, there's the Droid factory scene, which was filmed after shooting was long over. The vast majority of sets in the Prequels are real world locations(Spain, Tunisia, Italy, England), sets built in a studio, or miniatures. CGI was mostly used for animated characters. On the other hand, you name some "bad" movies as if the "good" ones don't use the same techniques, or are somehow more "subtle." Is Marvel subtle? Unlike the Prequels, the Marvel movies heavily feature fully digital sets. Some of them are filmed almost entirely on blue screen. Or even the new Star Wars movies, which are loaded with CGI, like The Force Awakens, which exclusively used CGI set extensions(and no miniatures). I haven't seen cats, or Green Lantern, but I've seen the first transformers movie in theater. I highly doubt anyone walked out there thinking it didn't look incredible. And if some people don't like that movie, it's not the fault of the visual effects. Even the most negative reviews of the Prequels still universally praised the visuals when they came out.

We Star Wars fans are too hard to please. The crew decided to take into account the jerkiness of the hand movements of Yoda’s puppeteer, because we complained about the CG Yoda not looking right. It’s as if Star Wars was too good for its own good; our fondness of it was greater than our ability to understand it. I suppose that’s sounds right though.

@Luis Martinez George Lucas was the chief editor on the original Star Wars. He oversaw the entire process and edited the acclaimed gunport sequence himself. His wife Marcia only edited a third of the movie and left to work on another movie before the final edit was even completed. There were two other editors who edited the other 2/3 of the movie. The notion that Lucas had nothing to do with the editing of the original movie, that he's a terrible editor, or that his wife singlehandedly saved from the movie from him--it's all a myth.

Well that's true in a way. While he wants his team to creatively roam and dictate a lot of what's seen on screen, the problem was that the "yes-manning" came from not questioning the vision (which they were not invited to do). Someone like Rick McCallum would have been more in the position to challenge ideas, but again, I feel that the vision was the one element that George had a death grip on (just like he did for RoTJ), so that's where the breakdown happened. To quote the Big Bang Theory (blech): "I have never said you that were not good at what you do, it's just that what you do is not worth doing."

I used to watch this movie a lot, especially before going to bed when the Kamino scenes would start. The rain and set design was just so peaceful and would usually knock me out fast. Before going to bed on nights I favored this to sleep to, I'd either watch the movie in full before sleeping or I'd watch this documentary instead. I was fascinated with CGI and everything 3D, and beyond the topic itself, this one was by far the most interesting to watch on the disc. It really showed a lot of the fun days working on Yoda and Dexter, while also taking a lighter look at the stressful days too, which was very real and refreshing to see. I'd say it even helped me gauge how actually working in a field like this would be from a young age which is nice because I over-romanticize things often.

I mean the story is what the story is." THAT is what is lacking with Disney Star Wars! They are constantly trying to "play it to the audience", either by ripping off previous entries (Abrams), or by deliberately "subverting expectations" (Johnson).

This man has given us great stories and before he passes away justice to him and his marvelous work needs to be done so he sees that someone has begun and will continue to tell the stories down in his head the way they are meant to be told. He deserves that, in a way the characters he created deserve that and the fans who agree with his vision as it has unfolded on screen in the six films and anything Stars Wars on television he has done deserve that.

@@ArthurVand This is wrong. It's not the amount of greenscreen used, it's what was portrayed on it. Look at how vivid and dynamic the Prequel environments are, the attention to detail, the fluid, Disney-like motion on the animated characters, how well CG and practical are integrated together by the end. Lucas' CGI looked awkward because it was pushing the medium of computer animation incredibly hard, to the point where directors like Rian Johnson, James Cameron and Peter Jackson have all said that the Prequels advanced not just CG, but digital filmmaking by decades. Lucas wasn't bound by studio budgets or a million focus groups or strict limitations, he gathered a team of the best creatives of their time and let them go wild. Compare Naboo's CG models in the first film to the second film and the jump is staggering. Compare Watto to General Grievous and it's alarming how quick the advancements were made. Do remember that CG foundations such as motion capture rigs, render passes, sub-surface scattering, global illumination and other ubiquitous modern technologies were quite literally invented in these movies.

@@tsukopara2054 CGI was used in places where it should not have been. There was no need for CGI backgrounds in random scenes like Anakin and Windu walking down a corridor. It looks weird, sterile and unconvincing. The problem isn't the quality of the CGI which is understandable for the time, it's the overuse of it at times when it was completely unnecessary.

I have a weird relationship with the prequels, I go through spells of loving them or hating them. But watching these behind the scenes makes you realise how much work and effort goes into the movies and just how hard everybody of screen works. George may not be the best script writer and has some times not delivered in his execution but you have to give it to him how dedicated and how much he cares for this universe. And I know the sequel trilogy gets a lot of hate but you got to realise, just like people worked hard on the prequels, people also worked very hard on the new films and it’s unfair to them to call all of there work trash because of certain people behind the scenes.

I really love and appreciate John Knolls sluffing around capturing the light and shadow/color information to input later…seriously meticulous work.

I'm glad that Frank Oz wasn't hurt but the digital Yoda bit. Took it in stride. True professional right there.

Who gives a shit! Pixar sucks and Disney ruined all their new movies using computer graphics instead of traditional hand-drawn animation. I'll take puppets and practical effects over pixels any day!

Actually, Pixar started out with computer graphics, and kept it by choice. Disney does not have too much say in the final picture. Toy Story 2 was supposed to be a musical for crying out loud.

@@TheOwlCreek you ignorant elitist, theres fantastic computer animated movies out there! The true issue is how you go about using the effcts knowing when n where to use practical or CGI in live action movies. as for animated film such as toy story the computer animation was an artistic choice and any work of art can be absolutely awesome regarless of the medium you choose to express yourself in.
