Adywan -  Since you confirmed recently that you would be adding a subtle 'lens flare' or two into this edit too, I seem to study every one I see on t.v. now!

I would nix the whole "added lens flare" thing unless it really looked good in the scene in question.  Most lens flares (short of those actually created within the camera itself -namely a lot of 1980's Dean Cundey shot films) look fake and added in and the last thing I would want is some extra FX splatted in to "enhance" a scene and stick out like a sore thumb.

While things like the green AT-AT lasers and red AT-AT cockpits would be cool, even I understand it is not necessary to add those things in, being that the movie is more than fine without them.  Even then, there would be a logical reason to add them in.  Adding garnish FX for the sake of it without having any meaning other than looks is kinda what makes the Prequels a little less.. meaningful (to be polite about it) than the original trilogy.
