Did we ever find out if Lowry is actually working on this set in any capacity? There was one vague second-hand thing someone mentioned, but I think that's it. I just saw this old 2004 quote from them in the changes thread, about eliminating the grain when a lightsaber is switched on:

"They flow very nicely now and, frankly, in the original movies, there was a distinct change. We were able to eliminate that change, and to me that's a very strong contribution to the storytelling process--removing something that prevents an audience from being drawn in."

I wonder if they said that before he saw what the sabers actually ended up looking like. The guy is so proud of eliminating the grain change but who really cares when the sabers are so messed up most of time? I would think Lowry would want that fixed, whether it's their fault or not, it reflects on them.
