Okay so I just got done finishing up a few more changes to my edit. This time I restored the original “If you strike me down” clip, since the SC38 Reimagined version looked pretty dodgy (and had bad lip synching). I also adjusted the aspect ratio (which required replacing scenes that came from the original movie) so that it would be consistent throughout the whole movie.
Here’s the scene in its current state:

And again, I made both a version that includes the Jabba scene and a version that excludes it. I’m thinking of eventually making a third version that adds some more of the SC38 Reimagined fight back in…but that would be awhile off, and would be separate from the two current versions. Hopefully this will be their final state…but, well, you know how it goes.
Hi Buzz Lightyear. I just stumbled across your post. I very much enjoyed SC38 when it came out and i think it makes ANH a stronger film. I had thought about someone actually tackling an edit by adding SC38 into ANH at the time and wondered if I could try editing the film myself (but it would’ve been my first attempt at something like this). I own collections of the Star Wars films on VHS, DVD, Blu Ray, and digital. I also enjoy collecting fan edits. If you don’t mind, I would be interested in watching your edit. I would love to provide feedback as well if that’s okay.
