Thanks, Harmy. Looks even better than the workprint that was already great. A couple of things I noticed however, that I want to share with you and that you could maybe take into account for the next version:

I feel that pretty much this whole scene's colors still are too saturated (the time-codes are included in the URL):

And the same in this scene :

Also, I feel that we should see a little more of the edge of the window on top. This is so thin, like only one line of pixels, that it almost twinkles the way it is and attracts the eye. Can't you crop a little more at the bottom (C-3PO's feet) to reveal a little more on top?

And final observation: the color match in the Falcon cockpit shots now definitely looks more consistant, yet we can still notice some minor inconsistancies, plus a lack of definition in the unzoomed shots... Too bad. Can't you obtain these few shots in 35 mm from Negative-1 for the next version?

This already is a great accomplishment anyway.
