Harmy,

I watched your workprint and was surprised, how much detail is visible. I thought I saw some dirt on the boot of the one or the other stormtrooper that I never noticed before. I may be wrong, but in one scene I think I can see that Hamill has a few ret dots in face, seems like he was in a rush when he shaved that morning before he went to the set ;-)

I had to compare it with the bluray and I can see it there too, just didn't notice that before. I think your colour timing shows those fine things better than the SE bluray. These fine details show on what a cool release you are working.

I found one thing that I like post here:

For me the rock in the distance behind the sandcrawler seems to glow a littlebit neon-blue. I just wanted to point you on this, maybe you want to fix that.

I like to post a request here for the lasers in the opening shot.

For me the unaltered Star Wars movie has these wonderful shining lasers in the opening scene when the Tantive tries to escape from the imperial ship.

A significant "fingerprint" for the SE is the the orange laser shots from the Tantive are thinner and not so brilliant in colour anymore.

Here is a shot from the GOUT (Puggo's 16mm release has the same shining laser shots too):

Here is the same shot with the "SE fingerprint":

Are you planning to change that? To be honest, in my opinion when I watch the unaltered version of Star Wars and I see the bright shining lasers in the opening scene I know that this is the "real" version.

I wasn't able to look here often the last few weeks and must say that I lost a littlebit track. So I'm not sure if you plan to edit one or another thing or if editing stage is completed.

At last here comes the pic of Hamill I was referring to:

Arent't there a few red dots on his cheek?

Sorry for posting these big pictures in your threat, but how can I post them as thumbnails?
