I like the changes to the Luke and Vader conversation.  You probably know this, but the cut at 1:18 should take place at the frame just before Vader begins to look down.  Vaderios is right that the close ups are too fast.  You removed the line about pther rebels well though. :-)

 

Yeah the spot with the fast close ups is a work in progress.  I actually just had an idea to fix it.  I was just going to slow the frame rate of the longest shot of Vader I could find where he's standing mostly still and add some slight motion blur so it essentially just makes him stand still... but slower.  That way I could just have that one shot come in before he looks down and keep it until luke looks and tells him to go with him, instead of switching back and forth.

 

EDIT: Done. It actually looks pretty good.  It looks like maybe there is some SLIGHT DNR smearing but the shot of Vader has so little motion it doesn't matter, you really have to be looking on it and it only lasts 7 seconds and it sure is a hell of alot less noticeable than the 2 shots switching like that.

 

And yeah I trimmed up the beginning of the scene, I've always thought that spot was kinda PTish.  I thought it took too much time for him just telling vader they found luke.  Also him not suspecting other rebels might make it more of a surprise for luke when the emperor reveals he is aware of them.
