Looking great. Nice touch restoring the bacta tank to its originally intended color.
I’m really glad to see all this footage (the Medbay especially) looking this good. I always felt we could spend some more time chillin’ at Echo Base before it’s blown to smithereens.
Some of it is cool, but I wouldn’t use stuff like the new Wampa or the citizens of Cloud City. It would be the new approach to CC, extended Lando opening the Falcon hatch, and maybe the clip before Han and Leia talk, with the speeders flying around. I’d have to look around.
Personally I’m in favor of keeping the Cloud City establishing shots to theatrical, just so it doesn’t look too slick or modern in contrast to the grindhouse flair. As for the SE Wampa I actually have no gripe with it being on its original cave scene and I think it would make sense for it to be featured in an expanded edition, given it’s live action footage and not just a CG addition. I wouldn’t bother stitching it into the “ice creatures attack” footage, though. Clunky as that one is, I figure the blaster fire VFX and soundscape would be enough to salvage it (I hope, at least).
