Wow! I’ve never seen the deleted scenes look this good. They have always stuck out like a sore thumb because of the low(er) quality, but here they look flawless. Never seen the bedroom scene before and now I wonder why no one else include it.
Now all that is missing is fixing the annoying laugh of the children.
Thank originaltrilogy.com forum member Phase3 who upscaled the deleted scenes!
Also, thank you to everyone for the feedback on the audio flashback. I was hesitant to do a full video flashback because as others have pointed out, it’s not really a Star Wars convention, but I may try adding two: one before Anakin’s conversation with Obi-Wan about his dreams “Will I ever see you again? What does your heart tell you?”, and another to replace the current voice only flashback in the bedroom deleted scene “Are you all right? It’s very cold.”
I don’t think the other deleted scene where Anakin is having a nightmare on the transport is really salvageable, but I’ll take another look at it.
The one thing I’m really missing in the Padme’s bedroom deleted scene is a good close-up reaction shot of Anakin in that moment, but I’ll try to make it work.
I’ll upload a test clip, hopefully sometime this week.
