Ok about the wipes: since I’ve never gone as far as trying to do wipes in editing I didn’t know how hard it could be. So indeed it’s a very small issue that’s just noticeable here and there.
Excellent Episode IV by the way, with great fan-editing (you’ve achieved near perfection here, hope you’ll find enough time to complete your project and to make a few small corrections to your 3 first three edits as well). Funny thing is that the overall plot (the first two acts) is like an AOTC reboot which ends with another Geonosis battle (had the actual AOTC been done that way, we wouldn’t be that harsh against this Episode). Must confess I’m not a fan of the brain invaders subplot but there wasn’t much choice to complete the story with Ahsoka narrative arc otherwise. So really, an excellent episode that makes the uneven tvseries a worthy addition to the canon. And the best episodes are still to come 😃
I guess next installment will deal with Ventress and the Nightsisters, introducing formely Darth Maul ?
