They all look great. I also can do mild sharpening and reduce interlace flicker on my end, and I prefer to examine their effect on an encoded NTSC DVD. So I think my preference would be to have just the color correction, without the additional processing. Unless you think that those artifacts are caused by the color correction, or a byproduct of getting in and out of AE.

I'd be interested in other opinions on this, too. Chewtoie?

I forgot - did you get that small additional video of the desert scene where C3PO and R2D2 are approaching Jabba's palace?

Thanks everyone! Especially to Harmy. It is going to be fun getting this project back up again. Next up - sound sync!!! Ugh, the most tedious step.
