Well, I just discovered the Adywan edit and I must say that it is near-perfect!
The ONLY thing that would have put his edit over the top for me, would have been if during Vader's first entrance - that for sake of continuity - Adywan had added the music cue from Empire when Vader enters the Bespin torture chamber to view Han's torture.
I temped the track to ANH and it works and fits perfectly - even to the point that the French Horns in the cue that follows Vader and his TKs past camera frame almost sound like Williams scored that scene this way.
Actually I think it would be really cool if one could record a new cue from a horn player that's very soft, dark and toned to fit the mood of the scene, so we get the dramatic entrance theme, trailed by the soft and subtle "first" statement of the imperial theme which then fades into the ambient hum.
Speaking of music, I always thought "Burning Homestead" had to end in this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJob_-m-gDE&#t=1m30s , rather than the ANH "dramatic cue". It just fits too perfectly. It's the most obvious cue in the whole film for adding the imperial march.
And for that matter adding the "hyperspace theme", which is basically that long sustained note we hear in ESB and ROTJ when the big hyperspace events occur. The visual, sound effect and music almost go hand in hand. One feels empty without the others. The structure of the falcon escape theme even supports this, you'd just have to extend the sequence enough that the "dramatic theme" occurs at the jump, and then superimpose the hyperspace note on the final note. The musical void could then be filled with another statement of the imperial march to further increase consistency. But... hmm. That would require a significant amount of effort to retime the score. :/ hopefully the surround mix has the dialouge seperately from the music.
I also always found it weird that Tarkin was informed that the falcon had markings that "match those of a ship that blasted it's way out of mos eisley" I mean, sure vader must know what mos eisley is having conducted the search for the droids, also accounting the whole having grown up there of the prequels. But being such a "remote" planet you'd think no one else owuld give two shits. Tarkin probably has no idea what it is and only heard of it through vader reporting on his findings and the guy reporting it probably just heard about the place 5 minutes ago when they matched up the markings. So adding the words "on tatooine" to the end of that report would help that a lot. Now, even though they have no clue wtf mos eisley is maybe they heard of tatooine at least in passing. And at the very least they know what planet to look up if they want to know more.
In short; space is big, tatooine is remote. And nobody would care about mos eisley enough that you need no planet associated with it.
