EDIT: Just watched the clip. It's very good and a massive improvement. But why did you keep the worst line of the entire saga* (IMO) "only a sith deals in absolutes". Apart from being a contradiction in terms, it's untrue in every respect. The sith love gray areas.
Depends on your perspective, but I didn't see the Sith as "loving grey areas", at least not in my edits (that was more of Dooku or the Separatists).
As for why I kept Obi-Wan's "Absolutes" lines:
- cutting the scene from Anakin's "Then you are my enemy" to Obi-Wan's "I will do what I must" really didn't work for me at all (it just always seemed like there was something missing in between those shots whenever I edited out his "Absolutes" line)
- I felt like by saying that line, Obi-Wan had finally accepted or come to terms with the reality that Anakin was now a true Sith (I never believed until that moment in the film that he really believed that Anakin had gone to the Dark Side.... although maybe it was just a matter of poor writing or acting on Ewan's part, though)
