Anjohan, I do like the piano version concept and the tone you are trying to set. I also agree that it may be a bit risky to mess with such a key scene too much. There are some moments the piano hits (like when it’s under dialogue) where I feel it wouldn’t if it was written for the scene, and so it doesn’t quite work 100% for me. Still it’s very interesting to see it put together this way!

I also have a nitpick and I wonder if it bothered anyone else. In the scene of Vader’s construction, was it strange to anyone else to see Vader’s helmet lowered as one piece? Even in the “previously on” for the first episode we are reminded that in ROTS first the faceplate is attached and then the dome “cap” is lowered to finish the seal. This also matches how we see it in ROTJ. This careful assembly made it seem more realistic somehow, like it was designed with great care to not damage the remains of Anakin’s head.

Seeing it lowered as one piece kind of made it look like a Halloween costume to me. Is this just me? (Sorry if it’s already been mentioned and I missed it)
