A definte good start to the conference room scene, and I'd agree with MTH and Twister's dialogue suggestions. As Twister mentioned the wipe seems a bit off, but the music intro is a great touch. The scene reversal as well, but I'd encourage you not to reverse the closeups of Palpatine in his chair; it looks rather odd. Of course if you have another reason for this I don't realize, you know best. The lightsaber duel is looking really exciting!
I've compiled a rough draft list of the SotDS edits, which I will put in it's own post to set it apart.
