Seeing just Luke's x-wing arrive on Tatooine would be perfect. But I think the recycled ANH establishing shot of Tatooine works on many levels.I'd have to see the shot of the x-wing arriving before I wanted to switch.

Asking Possessed to find and rotoscope more stuff at this point might be asking for a bridge too far. Polishing what's there will tell the story. That's the bottom line.

Here's another take on the opening crawl if TML and Possessed want to try something clearer:

 

LUKE SKYWALKER has returned to

Degobah following his defeat at the

hands of DARTH VADER. Luke seeks the

guidance of Jedi Master YODA. Meanwhile,

on Tatooine, Luke's friend HAN SOLO

remains in the clutches of vile gangster

JABBA THE HUTT.

 

Little does Luke know... (etc.)

 

This wording is more in line with the tone of the original crawl and, I hope, sets the stage for this edit a little better than the previous version.
