I think the transition back to the present happens far too late. It's a flashback, which means its narrative shouldn't have anything other than R2 and maybe 3P0. The stuff with Vader and Leia really feels out of place in that context.
The new shot of the escape pod leaving might need work, but I love the concept of it!
I understand what you're saying, but it's also an important Vader scene that is needed. And honestly, R2 and 3P0 are not the REAL reason to flashback... Because the hologram of Leia takes us back and it's as if we're hearing her story. So the scenes with Vader and Leia in my mind are needed. And I still need the droid shots because I need to bridge that gap too.
But if you think it's off, and have another idea, I'm all ears. Thanks for the comments timdiggerm.
Anyone else?
