Wow, looks better in black and white than I would have imagined. Really kicks down the CG look. I could almost believe it was a movie from the 50s. I am very thankful for the ROTS novelization. It at least gives me a telling of the story of Anakin Skywalker I can somewhat enjoy, it is so poetic. I think Stover did a remarkable job given the material he had to work with. I think a lot of the VO for this could be taken straight from the novel with only minor tweaking, just as you did here. I love how you used the "This is how it is to be Anakin Skywalker" it sounded perfect. I think your voice fit quite well also. I really, really hate that scene, but it wasn't too bad in its new context. I would love to see the rest of the movie. Hey, Spence, you should try some scenes from the video game and use the b&w effect you used on this scene and see how they look. I still can't imagine them looking very fiftiesish, but then again I never thought that scene could look as great as it did. I did however feel the pace of the music was all wrong for that scene, but as you said, it was just thrown together real quick.
