Keep up the good work Ady and team I hope you are all doing well.

I got one for you!

It’s not a big deal, but none the less it is a continuity error.

When gold leader is making his attack run he is looking down the targeting computer… we then cut to a cockpit pov shot and the targeting computer is not visible.

I actually tried to add a targeting computer to the shot and it is very difficult to achieve realisitically.

May I suggest this POV cockpit shot is handed to Luke as he has no targeting computer and is swapped for a travelling trench shot?

Further more look at the cropping on the targeting computer on 4:3 releases of the film. Why would you have buttons on something you were looking down to target something? Ergonomically that would mean sticking your fingers in front of your eyes to push buttons whilst trying to target 😃

So if you look at the 4:3 cropping this is not an issue we don’t seee any buttons only the main display.

I think cropping the targeting display to remove all the buttons is something you would not be perhaps like to do. In my opinion the 4:3 vetsion is superior in it’s framing. I will leave it with you.

Also taking of the falcon targeting computer… Notice that thing that swings about below? I think that was to designate which way the background was meant to move. There is no background really that should be the window and star field. Just a note stars moving vertically up or down seem to work better than than going left to right or right to left.

Whilst I am also posting there is an audio issue of missing sound effects. When Luke makes his second attack on the death star surface the “trust your feelings” one. The x-wing laser sound effect is missing which is what makes it wrong. Then when we cut to the gunner falling off there is not a sufficient explosion sound to accompany the action. Then it seems the next shot of the xwing the green laser fire is also not properly integrated with sound also.

One last one… Music issue.
When wedge saves Luke from the tie fighter the music here is cut short meaning the last bass note accompanying the Y-wings diving is off. If you track the music in you will see what I mean the last note does not and never has sat right. If the score is restored the last note sit’s much better with the action and it works how it was meant to work and does not feel out of place like it currently does.

Take care
