Pho3nix Posted May 14, 2005 Share Posted May 14, 2005 I find it very irritating that the StormTroopers in the OT have no colour markings indicating rank. Though Clone Troopers have them, I find that very odd and I think they should have been added digitally in the OT DvD. Any comments on this ? o_O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Sitherino Posted May 14, 2005 Share Posted May 14, 2005 They're supposed to be like that. Uniformity = scary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinkie Posted May 14, 2005 Share Posted May 14, 2005 They're all equally bad shots, so no one could be promoted over the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George did away with the colors and fancy designs to show how grim the Imperials are. At the end of RotS, the Star Destroyers and V-Wings lack the red coloring they have at the start of the movie.

Any comments on this ? o_O Lucas: What was I thinking??!! *changes OT again, releases new versions with colored markings added* *fans payout to get the new version, like loyal dupes* Personally I am glad the OT and the Prequels are not identical in every way. And I think attempts to make the Prequels and OT "gel better" in style or whatever should be done from the bottom up (ie: the Prequels should change to match the OT) not the other way around. Stylistically, yes, Lucas's idea was to make the bad guys look "colorless." So as the Stormtroopers become evil (from the supposedly "good guy clones") they lose whatever bit of color they originally had, which was just for the benefit of Non-stormtroopers identifying them anyway.

Konar Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 Could also be a technique used to make the stars look extra special/better... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
