Obviously I'm not a prolific poster on here, I think I've posted twice, but, In response to Angel's comments on making the PT more OT, I think about one of the original inspirations for the space battles for the OT.  That being real life dogfights.

The PT seems to have more of a free form camera ducking and diving into areas where a camera mounted on another fighter could not feasibly get access to.

In many shots this is probably impossible to eliminate (hell I'm no editor) but IMO the relatively realistic nature of the space battles (albeit in space and not in the air) drew me into the drama.

Make of these comments what you will.

Bob, with a little clairvoyance, the meeting with Lucas in the Gents could have been quite hilarious had you made reference to the smell from outside the door compared to inside... "And I thought they smelled bad on the outside"... lol.  He'd probably have punched you though.

Anyways... keep up the good work.  Much love from Scotland.
