Great Job Spence!

I noticied the off sync speech from lando too, but its not long and i was just thinking at the time - wow the sarlac really is soo much better when its just a hole in the ground with tentacles! (without the snout thing)

so i guessed you had used some gout footage but you merged it really well, also noticed the color correction you made to the whole movie - otherwise it would have stood out like a sore thumb!

I prefer this version of the movie to all the others) I thought the credits went on for a long time and got a bit crazy tho lol

Im not going to comment on all the changes now, ill leave that for another time - but i liked the ending, that scene with Luke burning vader's body now seems to give off a totally different vibe - but what strikes me is how simple it was to pull off - all thats changed is that it's now the final shot intsead of being lost within the ewok celebration somewhere. The ending now implies there is hope for the future of the galaxy rather than just the happy type party ending that it was before.

When i heard thats what you were doing a few weeks ago, i tried to emulate the ending to see what it would look like but the music cut and credits always messed it up! I never thought of using the music from the ending of Empire strikes back! but it works amazingly - and yet that last film ends in despair with the rebels limping away - and yet it still works for the ending of Jedi and implies that there is now hope ...kinda the opposite!

good stuff) most impressive!
