During the flashback, I also replaced the Blue Leia lightsaber with the Ascendant Purple Leia lightsaber, without further color corrections. I like the purple; what can I say?

Seeing as I was the first critical voice for the first pass on this scene, I just have to say… this is a VAST improvement. The work that you and Nevar have done for this scene looks really good and it’s definitely on the right track, if not already locked in.

I will say for this version, I’m not really digging the purple in the X-Wing lift part. Which also brings me to another thing I wanted to talk about: I know you all are wanting that part to have some orangish look to it. However, I think it would be okay to keep the original lighting from the scene for that part. Frankly, I was never a fan of the orange look for Ahch-To that was introduced in TLJ. I think keeping that white, “Mists of Avalon” sort of look is really great and hearkens back to the first time Rey and Luke met (in the final scene of TFA).

Again, that’s just me.
