Good to see you back SSWR :D These pics were tests that i wanted to gather a few before posting :P

Since you are here a question from editing pov.

ANH is an example of retro editing.showing things happening. Example is when the company goes to rescue leia and they shoot the cameras. Editing wise they put very quick frames of destruction to create a mess. and sometimes they can create a mess. Do you think that can be fixed and be more like nowadays?

 Thanks, Angel. Although, I can't hang out here as much as I might want. :)

I'm not sure I'm fully grasping what you're asking here. But yes there is some quick editing in that scene. Showing closeups of cameras exploding. I think you might be able to cut a few of those close ups out...not sure how many cameras they show exploding...not sure how I feel about that.

But I think I see where you're getting at. For a while now I've thought that a few shots of the Jawas hiding from R2 in the canyon should be trimmed. They linger a bit too long and you can clearly see what these guys look like. Maybe those shots just need some darkening.  ;)
