I watched one of the preliminary encodes I found on the hd with a couple of friends, and we were all super stoked. The new voice is great. A lot of the time we couldn't tell it was ADR. There definitely are a couple spots that need to be rerecorded, but it might just be I need to get the level down with the rest of the mix. The new pace and music is really cool, very vintage. The new fx are great. People thought Jar Jar's voice was way better, but there was still some concern over the voice, it might've also just been the mix, but it might also need a better quality recording. I like the direction with Jar Jar though. I haven't followed the thread intensely, so I don't know if anyone has heard the new stuff from him, but he seems more like a character from the Catina in ANH rather than...Jar Jar.

This feels like the Star Wars I thought was coming with Episode I, modern, but classic.

I didn't expect all the sequences to be in separate projects, anyway I'll look through them one at a time and write up what I think. My instinct is to start editing away, but I realize I should talk to you first. I'll pitch any video edits first, but audio will definitely be really fun to work on. I'll see about doing it in Hi Def, the editing was a lot more intense than I thought, but I'll definitely try to give it the upgrade.

This is a pretty cool project everyone. You should all be really excited.
