Best of luck to you and your family, Ady.

I don't want to harp on it, but do you have a response to this?

Hey Ady, rewatching the trailer again, I noticed that in the shot where Leia, Lando, and Chewie run along the Bespin balcony, R2 seems to be stuck in the hallway, and you can see his back leg stop for a moment and move back and forth as if stuck. Also, in that same scene, the R2 element slightly "bleeds" onto the wall that is in front of him, which is noticeable because the wall's edge stops being straight when R2 passes behind it:

Also, is the blurriness of the running characters in this scene fixed? I know you've said a while ago that the ILM elements botched the superimposed character elements in the SE, but the blurry outlines they have in the ESB:R trailer are not very convincing; it looks like Leia, Lando and Chewie were pasted in the scene.

What you saw in the trailer was an early version of this shot before the final rotoscoping . The rotoscoping done in the SE was awful but i couldn't use the GOUT to fix this because it was just too bad quality. The R2 issue with the wall has been fixed. The strange motion you see with R2 as if he is jumping around is due to the fact that they didn't bother stabilizing the footage before rotoscoping him and then they did a very bad job at changing the position where he stops because they had changed the position of the elements from the original. I've stabilized R2 and he turns a lot smoother now

Awesome! Thanks Ady!
