I just wanted to say, adywan, great job on the released clips thus far. I don't agree with every change you made (Threepio looks super cheeto-gold colored in the Tantive IV hallway, and he seems to get more and less yellow as the camera changes; I also preferred when Vader's eyes were red... I loved how Episode III at least maintained some consistency with that idea), and some of the SE elements you retained still look like crap (maybe they'll look a bit better on a TV in DVD quality).
BUT, I must admit it looks much much better than the 2004 editions! Kudos for that.
It's a pity there's so much more work to be done...
I take it we're not going to get anymore never-before-seen clips between now and New Years 2008? Here I was hoping that the "Christmas suprise" was actually going to be a low quality version of the whole thing...
Ah well, the wait continues... pray you have no more hard drive failures!
