I'm toning down the blue in the Kamino exteriors.  It seems to make the planet appear more grim and foreboding.  This started with the Jango / Obi-Wan fight on Kamino because it is the longest exterior sequence.  I did attempt something more radical as in Brash's Cut where he was making it where Jango leaves Kamino at dawn as a mirror of Boba leaving Bespin at dusk in ESB.  However, I would've had to re-rotoscope Obi-Wan's lightsaber, and all the blue trim on Jango's armor would've mysteriously disappeared.

I added a real fix to the sequence, though.  When Obi-Wan does the tuck and roll after Jango goes to the air firing the blasters, I've added in the sound of Kenobi's saber turning off and back on.
