You know, he stated it very badly, but Mojo_LA does bring up a good point. I haven't even been able to see Ady's edit yet, so I can't comment, but I wasn't aware that music was added to the Vader/Obi-Wan duel, and I would kind of tend to agree that that scene was deliberately left unscored for a good reason. And this is typical of many 70's films- there was a great deal of attention given to spotting. Because most of the movie had been scored up until that point, music stopped in order to give the scene added weight...and also to heighten the impact when the music reappears as Ben dies. In my mind, that artful use of music is something to aspire to in the prequels.

But I would tend to agree, in general, that the prequels should be molded to fit the OT, not the OT molded to fit the PT. However, Ady's versions I feel would work better with ANY version of the prequels, simply because there will always be a disconnect unless somebody paints out all of the air traffic in the background of the PT, closes up windows, reshoots scenes with actors and puppets, etc. But yeah, from an artistic standpoint, I would tend to think that the duel should be left unscored. I would really have to see the scene in context to know for sure, though. And what I've seen so far of Ady's edit has left me speechless, so there's no reason for me to think that this scene was a major problem. Same thing on the recut Luke/Obi-Wan scene...I just have to see it. It kills me I haven't seen this yet!

Well, I might be interested in doing some editing here; I plan to create a "me version" eventually anyway. Something that'll fit in with SOTDS and Adywan's ANH (with maybe one audio edit here).

That would be fantastic! Do you think we could count on you for a half an hour of edited video for ROTS?

CC- I'd love to see your rough edit.
