Seriously though, I want to join the other gushers for a minute and say fantastic job.
Now that I've seen the whole thing, the parts that really stand out as improved over either special edition are the tie battles and the saber battle. The Alderaan explosion looks very cool, and I thought the DS explosion would be cheesy but it was still effective.
There is one part I didn't like though. Sure a few creative changes I disagreed with but could handle (I thought I would HATE the prequel music insertions and the Imperial march, but they were used sparingly and well... the music edit for Obi-Wan's death was slightly less effective, but I could deal with it; the missing Jabba scene, well I realize why you took it out, it's too much work to fix and deserves to be a deleted scene for curiosity, nothing more) but this next item... ugh, it just looked bad (and I say that considering the high quality of virtually every other change).
The "flipper" from Ponda Boba. I had to pause and take a look at it. I imagine someone seeing this for the first time would be like "wtf am I looking at?" making the shot a distraction. It's like an orange tube with a half inflated gray balloon at the end. It doesn't look like anything that could hold a gun, much less like an actual appendage. Sure, wolfman's hand was out of place, but at least it looked like a hand and the blood made it perfectly clear that this was a severed limb that Obi-Wan must have cut off, in the quick action seconds before.
I guess you could take a look at the "lost scene" of the Cantina to get a glimpse of what the flipper is supposed to look like. Perhaps it needs more curvature and a thumb to make it look more like an alien hand? Something. The shot just looks crappy. No offense...
But beyond THAT, the rest of the shots look seemless, and amazing. It's hard to believe that the amateur tech of today looks as good as the Lucasfilm tech of 11 years ago!
Great job. Now if you could just fix the spelling errors and the cut off hand on the DVD, this would truly be a masterpiece!
PS: I didn't see the battle droid or George Lucas yet, but that's okay, I wasn't looking hard.
PPS: It was "Lord Darth Vader" in the credits originally, but I realize you must have changed it to be in keeping with "Darth" as a Sith title in the prequels, rather than his first name.
