Lots to love in this SSWR.
I'm not sure if Obi-Wan would be so flippant about an unfortunate hot pursuit caused loss of life though. I was thinking more knocks and near misses than actual crashes...(the poor sods who die when the Anakin bashes into the control tower in ROTS might have been realistic but I'm sure that Anakin and Obi-Wan weren't cracking a joke about it).
Yes I think you're right about this. The last thing we need is for it to look like the Jedi don't care about others! ;)
Some of the music changes I like...not too keen on "Here They Come" being used in this context (I was a bit miffed when it was used so freely in the Jabba sail barge scene).
Yeah, when it comes to music i'm very impatient about picking out cues. I usually just slap it in there because I don't know what I'm doing! :P
The changeling face is something that should be removed all together (hasn't this been done in a fan edit already...or did I dream it?).
Yeah I think I've seen that somehwere. Totally agree. I just don't have a great way of pulling this off right now...
Nice to see a more sympathetic Anakin all by removing the second shouty line (he isn't a complete nut job here).
Yes I've seen this done before and I loved it. Had to cut it too! ;)
The bar isn't really missed (though it does add a bit of detail to city life it's not a location where anything pertinent to the story takes place) but we are still left with a Fett who needn't have been there (a bounty hunter hiring a bounty hunter seems a bit daft).
I can't see a way around that other than having Fett track Sam earlier and try to bump her off as a rival for the bounty.
Maybe he could fire and miss just before she makes her escape bid in her speeder.
Still great work and full of ideas.
Hmm...that could work. As far as Zam dying it could be due to the car crash (or lightsaber wound)...
Thanks for the great feedback!

awesome video SSWR! love the reduction of the fall, and the music additions too. did i detect some recoloring?
Ha! no recoloring...I tried in a couple of shots but it didn't work out very well...don't know what I'm doing there either! :P

SSWR, I've been toying with this idea yesterday myself, almost frame for frame. How weird!
I'd previously cut it the same as the Phantom Editor (they just follow Zam to the club) but I've started thinking that excising ALL the action from that scene was a bad choice, so decided to keep Anakin jumping down (only making it a more plausible distance)
Great minds eh!
Yeah I agree. There are some great pieces to keep there. Can't wait to see your version! :D

I should probably clarify that the way I've cut it is almost the same as yours but the main difference is that it doesn't have anakin's head and the speeder in the foreground during Zam's speeder's flyby (which I'd considered doing, but didn't know how and had no idea it could possibly look as good as that!)
Where did you grab the foreground shot from? Was it composited/keyframed in with after effects?
I did it all with photoshop and premiere. I think I just found the biggest peice of the speeder I could find (regardless of what angle) and used that! Thanks for the feedback on that particular shot...I wondered if I had pulled it off! :D
Thanks again guys!
