Every time I watch these edits I pretend to be the audience watching it for first time. It’s kind of “if you blink you will miss it” which is great because it makes the movie an enigma. If this had been in theatrical release I could imagine much discussion afterwards with some people noticing theses small details and other’s missing it.
For me, the subtle works brilliantly. I’m not finding it distracting at all and it’s just another mystery surrounding the build-up to the next movie. As others have said I would also like to see how Snokes eyes look going straight back to blue after turning “Sith” yellow.
