Does anyone think that Vader's entrance in the Hoth battle is weak? He comes out of nowhere.
Comes out of nowhere? Veers tells him that he can start his landing, then we hear announcements that the Imperials have entered the base, then we see them burst into the command centre. So how can he have come from nowhere? It's also certainly not a weak entrance.

Why isn't there going to be a ground battle on Hoth? I know that it would take alot of time to do, but it would make sense if there was one added. Mabey if Lucas does an edit, this will be added.
Why does there need to be a ground battle? It would just be adding something for the sake of it really. The Empire have these huge metal beasts who's main objective is to destroy the shield generator. They have no need to risk wasting ground troops when the walkers can easily do this job. Only when the shield is down do the ground troops need to go in. We don't need to see it though.

I think some PT music should be added. Nothing noticible, but just background music. The PT's music is much more epic than hearing the same old Imperial March every scene. Mix in a sad version of force theme from the PT when the Empire is close to winning.
At least add some epic music to the Vader/Luke scene.
Anakins Betrayal would work somewhere to.
No! No! No! The PT music is more epic? You have got to be kidding me. ESB has one of the best soundtracks of all time. The PT scores just don't come anywhere close to the masterpieces John Williams did for ANH & ESB (not overkeen on ROTJ's score though but still leagues ahead of what we got for the PT). I stated many times that there will be no added music and definitely no music from the PT in ESB:R. The score works perfectly as it is and doesn't need hacking up just to add snippets from the PT scores with themes that have nothing to do with what is happening on screen
And like i have said many times the PT need to be made to fit in with the OT and not the other way around. The only reason i added "battle of the heroes" into ANH was that this was the rematch between Obi-Wan & Vader so that helped tie in the two trilogies.

yeh, i saw the advert today. It will be interesting which versions they will be playing because usually ITV use the 1997 SE versions for ANH & ESB.
sky_ did you manage to find the original HD version of the opening logo you did for me?
