THESE IMAGES DO NOT COME FROM FUCKING HYPERSPACE :cool:

Thanks to MF's DarthFirst for getting this to us! :heavymetal:

As Thundercracker pointed out, Vader is wearing a shackle on his wrist on the leftside of the screen.

THE BIRTH OF VADER

Poor Anakin.

by **Ternian** » July 27th 2004 3:48 am

The whole slash debate has just expanded - Bondage Vader.

by **malkieD2** » July 27th 2004 3:50 am

are you sure ? It doesn't look right, almost out of proportion. Perhaps the hand in shackle thing is actually part of the chair he is sitting in ?

by **darthpsychotic** » July 27th 2004 3:55 am

I altered the screencap for desktop wallpaper purposes

edit:
this sorta didn't upload that well lol. at least the bluescreen is gone.
I'm sure someone will do better.

by **malkieD2** » July 27th 2004 4:07 am

would ...

... be better for wallpaper purposes because Vader is looking towards us ?

still though - why the fuck can't it be next May already

by **Hade** » July 27th 2004 5:00 am

I'm loving this one. :monocle:

It's like Palpatine doesn't quite know how he's going to react to the news about Padme and that's why he's shackled.

At least, that's how I take that picture. :heavymetal:

The whole gay Jedi/Sith debate has just expanded - Bondage Vader.

Lucas must've seen the Matrix movies. I'll bet the Wachowski's will be the first in line now. They'll be dissapointed in the lack of the visit to an S&M bar.

I don't know about all of you; but, I'm getting a "I'm not so sure I'm going to like seeing Anakin's fall" feeling the closer we get to the release date. I do think the movie is going to ROCK and it may be the best SW yet; but, poor little Ani. I hope this feeling holds true. I can't wait to watch RotJ after seeing III.

Georgie said that III was the darkest and it looks like it is going to go well beyond that. If the last shot is truly the three of them looking out the Star Destroyer window, I can only imagine the general publics reaction when leaving the theater. Perhaps GL will have a last second change of heart and switch the delivery of Luke to Tatooine with the Star Destroyer similar to switching Palpatine's overview of the troops with the wedding in AotC? I hope not. GL second guess himself too much anyway.

I don't quite understand /how/ he's shackled though - look at the angle of the hand. Unless he has his arms crossed over his chest, like this:

http://www.yourlost.com/Sigs/uploads/vaderbirth.gif

But even that looks a bit odd, seeing as the hand seems to be behind him in the photo.

by **malkieD2** » July 27th 2004 5:24 am

that would be the one I linked to :p

however - see what I can do in 5 mins using photoshop (badly)

good work! you just made a new background pic for me.

Seems to me like his arms are bent at the elbow.

Anyway, can't wait to see more from this clip.

by **Duke** » July 27th 2004 7:53 am

How about something like this?

by **cheese_boy** » July 27th 2004 7:57 am

Ah of course. My eyesight needs checking over I think.

I brightened it up and I can see now what you all obviously spotted.

by **VT-16** » July 27th 2004 8:10 am

Doesn´t look like his hand (if it´s his) is attached to his body, it looks to far off compared to the rest of him. Probably not attached yet, and lying on a table or something...

by **rhonderoo** » July 27th 2004 8:14 am

I agree on the poor Ani thing. This movie is going to be dark. (Yeah, I know,...yada yada...)

I bet this is the "you killed her" part.......and then, stand back Palps. :spawnskull:

That pic you made isn't possible... look at his thumb.

by **pjvader** » July 27th 2004 9:04 am

just passing the time!

by **cheese_boy** » July 27th 2004 9:20 am

Yeah that's what I noticed, Ktulu. With my monitor the brightness turned up to a reasonable level (i.e. a level the human eye can see things at) it became pretty clear.

by **Chainsaw_Ash** » July 27th 2004 9:22 am

It looked out of proportion because it was anamorphically "stretched" from the DVD. This is how it should look:

aspect corrected :cool:

by **efc** » July 27th 2004 11:02 am

Brilliant!!!! I'm feeling sad for Vader looking at these...

by **HookLineAndSinker** » July 27th 2004 11:23 am

The movement of Vaders head certainly implies some dialogue. I wasn't entirely sure if it would be Hayden without the helmet on asking where Padme is or with the helmet on with James Earl Jones providing his voice. But I guess it's James Earl Jones. :mrgreen:

by **cheese_boy** » July 27th 2004 11:27 am

These are just amazing. Much appreciation to all involved.

by **Forcechoke** » July 27th 2004 11:37 am

When are we getting the wider shot from SDCC that shows the rest of the set?

It looks exactly like the birth of Vader concept art that came out several months ago.

by **Silence** » July 27th 2004 11:50 am

HE IS BACK!!!!!!!!

Hell fucking Yeah!

So it seems

by **MotherFuckerJawasRule** » July 27th 2004 1:46 pm

Anyone else remember back when sites like AICN and TFN wasn't scared to post this stuff? Has Lucas ever sued fan site? I use to run a Natalie Portman site and put up hyerpspace pictures. I would get those email from Lucasfilms also. But they never did anything

Fuck TFN, Love with MF.com (and that's not Mother Fucker)

by **MotherFuckerJawasRule** » July 27th 2004 2:11 pm

Thanks , you can always count on Mr T

And I meant the trailer and these picture.
I just want to see a trailer SO BAD!

by **Ktulu** » July 27th 2004 2:44 pm

is that the chair between the two dudes? (the guy at the left and the guy with the keep back 200ft. text)

by **MotherFuckerJawasRule** » July 27th 2004 2:52 pm

I believe that is it

I want one of those Keep Back 200ft Shirts!

by **Jobo** » July 27th 2004 3:09 pm

It's so pretty.

by **Benovite** » July 27th 2004 3:29 pm

Very cool.

His is in essence a white boy becoming James Earl Jones. The transformation is complete. Palpatine puts the soul in ya and you're down to play the blues.

the picture i did towards the top of the thread has the concept art as the background(the one with his head bowed down)
sorry dkr1138 wasnt stealing your idea of putting the dialogue on the pic! i just guess great minds think alike

by **Klethron** » July 28th 2004 10:34 am

Here is yet another attempt at some "artwork"

Figures that I would leave that blatant amount of blue in the upper right corner, but disregarding that... enjoy:

Can we get that photo un-stretched and corrected?

CORRECTED ASPECT RATIO :cool:

More corrected aspect ratio caps:

by **Jasper Fett** » July 28th 2004 11:55 pm

Very, very cool. I really like the pics.

by **Zion** » July 30th 2004 11:02 pm

great sketch dualvortex. :mrgreen:

Here's one that I made a few days ago. You may have seen it up somewhere else.

by **Jimbo Asprilla** » August 1st 2004 1:51 pm

Great pictures indeed, it truely whets the appetite for Episode III
