@bouvines: I'm sorry, I thought you meant in the Despecialized credits - you're right, the characters should be a bit fatter, which would also diminish the gaps between them.

And that is the main difference between Laserschwert's original files and my adjustments - Laserschwert's letters were very thin and sharp - much thinner and sharper than in that 35mm scan, so I used a matte choker effect to make them fatter and blurred them out a little bit - this is unfortunately what also caused the fuzziness in some of the logos but over-all, I think it brought the credits much closer to the way they look in the 35mm scan. The amount of the glow is also is also inspired by the 35mm.

I guess the gate-weave may be a bit too much, I'll have to look into that.

@michaeldc: I got a bit sidetracked with the BD release - I'm now thinking about waiting until all three v2.5s are done and then do the whole trilogy and make the intended bonus disc for the whole trilogy as well and release the whole thing as one awesome trilogy package.
