Nice work, Davnes!

Overall I liked it. Some of it was choppy, but this may still be a rough edit. Mace and Anakin's sabers clashing in front of Palpatine's face was just awesome!

I liked how you tightened the scene of Anakin telling Mace about Palpatine being a Sith Lord. It still is kind of underwhelming, but that's because of the material, not the way you editted it. But did Anakin sneak aboard the ship? That doesn't make a lot of sense to me. Wouldn't Mace and the oter Jedi sense him being aboard with him?

I think the scenes of Anakin telling Mace about Palpatine being a Sith, Mace's confrontation with Palpatine, and Anakin's final turn are all a bit underwhelming. The ideas are all there, but the execution, staging and pacing of it all is just off. They need to be seriously reworked to give them the punch they need. Maybe I'll make my own version of Anakin's turn later on.
