Also, yet another extraneous suggestion: how would it look to give the Executor a underbelly bay mimicking the regular SDs, but one big enough to house a SD (with the idea that the Executor could take in an SD, dry dock it and repair it).

On that note, if something is done to that degree, how cool would it be to see an SD leaving said underbelly hanger bay?

Wow, that idea is really cool. It may border on prequel-esque over-visualization, but I'd love to see it, even in concept.

Well, it wouldn't have to be anything big. You would just add the underbelly hanger bay in most of the Executor shots and maybe show the SD coming out of the Executor hanger bay in the grand opening fleet shot. It could be done in the second shot showing the SD underneath the Executor (we see the SD coming out of the hanger, then go to the far shot showing the entirity of the Executor, with the SD we saw in the previous shot moving below and away from the Executor)

Then again, if something like this could be done or were to be done, maybe the hanger could be on the top of the Executor - the idea being that if the S-SD hanger was on the top, the regular SD hanger would be on the bottom when entering the Executor hanger bay, which would allow AT-ATs to be loaded onto it. So in essence, you could have SDs lined up above and behind the Executor to lower into the S-SD hanger so as to be loaded by ground troops/armor, as well as be refitted/repaired/etc.

If this angle was taken, you could keep all existing shots (with slight modifications) but in the far off profile shot of the Executor, a SD could be shown lifting off out of the upper SD hanger bay on the Executor - the hanger wouldn't have to be physically shown, due to the angle of the Executor (other than deleting some of the upper building structure area to account for the hanger opening).

You could also show an SD coming out of said upper hanger bay in the arrival to Hoth shot.
