i do want to try and use the Bespin menu scene but not the others. The Hoth one has the AT-AT's at 2 different scales as it pans and doesn't look right, plus the one AT-AT has the guns from the shot it was taken from of the closer AT-AT still present.

I can understand that; I guess what impressed me about the AT-AT menu section (as well as the others) was seeing the snowspeeders zip over and have the camera pan and follow them into the battle, as the AT-ATs simulateneously close onto the trenches.  To have that "panoramic" feature to really open the feel of the scene(s).

At 0:24, I also like seeing the snowspeeders cross paths with one another.

Would it be possible to take one of the snowspeeder shots of them coming over the horizon ridge or flying over the rebel trenches and blend it into the shot as they approach the AT-ATs in the distance to create in essence a pan similar to the TIE reveal and/or X-wing reveal in ANH?  You may want to consider calling upon those fellows who helped you with the TIE reveal and pan to maybe help work on such a shot.

Regardless, you ARE doing fantastic work and it is nice to see that you are using some imaginative additions other than simply "embiggening" things.

On the current subject of keeping this mum: I concur.  Fanedit.org was shut down recently by the MPAA (and re-opened without any download links); the last thing we need is to have Lucas or someone else come in right when this and/or JEDI or other edits are about to be finished just to have it all taken away.  So I say let's just get Freemason about this and keep it a secret... for now.
