SomethingStarWarsRelated, i have just viewed your clip and you idea is pretty good but would cause too many problems really. Not only would i have to have a new shot of the speeder but every moving element too because everyone would be walking backwards. Also it would make it look like they are leaving the city. So i'm leaving the entrance the way it is but i have taken out the "hitting the droid on the head" shot.
I would like to suggest that you do a commentary track for your version covering the changes you've made, the thoughts behind them, etc. I know I would listen to it.

That would be a pretty cool idea. I guess i may attempt that. I could mix it with the 2004 commentary track and be alongside GL

Sluggo, i was going to redo the elevator matte and have it as a wider shot with a lot of activity below but i just could find the material to pull this off so i had to scrap it. I might give it another go later but at the moment its not looking like i'll be able to do anything with it....yet
I have been following the visual guides. I never realised until reading them that the the second shot we see of the rebel troopers was a flip shot. I've managed to fix the other flip shots but missed this one. Don't know how i'm going to fix this though because if i just flip it back then it will give the impression that they are running from a different direction. Damn. Looks like this error will have to stay.

Also its looking like that horrible model shot of the death stars surface when luke blasts at it will ahve to stay too. I've become totally stuck as to what to do here. I've tried using HDTV footage from Jedi for the surface and added lukes X-wing diving in whilst blasting away but it looks horrible and there aren't many close up shots of the surface that i could work with so i have given up with this for the time being.
