Wow. Thanks, Zion! I really appreciate the kind words (and to everyone else, as well). I remember being blown away by your ROTS menus. "How does he do that?", I thought to myself. So that means a lot to me coming from you. I have yet to watch it on a nice TV, so it's good to hear that it presents well on a nice HDTV set up with the Oppo. I'm embarrassed to say that other than my 17" Mac monitor, I only have a *gasp* 13" CRT! Kind of hard to see quality on that! I know, I'm ridiculously lacking in the home theater dept. Still waiting for those prices to come down .

I will again echo your comments on Rebel11_38's crawl. It simply kicks ass and really makes the edit legit as a believable SW experience.

I used the Fox logo from the most recent release of the original 1976 The Omen. It took me about 12 netflix mailings of Fox movies from that era to find one that half way matched. It was a lot more difficult to find than I first thought, that's for sure! The colors and brightness are always different, and surprisingly a lot of Fox movies from the mid to late 70's don't even have opening fanfare. I do still have the Omen Fox logo VOB if anyone wants it for their own edits.

I did create all of the credits. The starfield is from the GOUT (and is the same one used behind Rebel11_38's crawl). Still credits were done in Photoshop and composited in Final Cut Pro. The scrolling credits were done in Apple's LiveType and again composited in FCP.

...I seriously need to find a good TV to watch this now!...
