Seriously. The skintones, the lasers, the planets, the crawl...I don't know what the hell I'm watching. The only thing that wasn't a clusterfuck was the starfield, maybe.

And I'm not sure if WookieGroomer screwed around with the audio or what, but it seems like some alternate or new recording of the Fox Fanfare and Star Wars theme are tracked in. But beyond that...yuck yuck yuck yuck YUCK! Dynamic range compression totally run amok - no oomph to the SFX, and the music has been run through a V-shaped EQ. The sirens from the mono and stereo mixes on the Tantive IV at the same time...I just...it's mind-boggling. 

What needs to be done is a comparison disc - heck, maybe I could be persuaded - like WookieGroomer's old Splitscreen discs of yesteryear. Then...they will know, everyone will know. Picasa albums, even if they're better for catching the details, are no substitute for seeing the totality of the changes all at once, in motion.
