Also.  I guess this doesn't *Exactly* have to do with my ROTJ edit, but I plan on doing the whole saga and releasing 1080P AVCHD's of all the films.  (bd25's as well if people think the 8 gb avchd's don't look good enough...)

I'm only posting about it here because it's not yet to the point where starting it's own thread would be worthwhile.

The prequel trilogy edit's will be somewhat conservative possibly spilling over into the moderate category.  Mostly dialogue trims, cleaning up the pace.  For Phantom Menace  the jar jar being an outcast/banished from gungan city subplot will be removed.  He will tag along with the jedi because of qui gon saving his life as he said.  The gungans and naboo being on bad terms will be removed.  Amidala will ask Jar Jar for his help as usual, but he will be assumed to have gathered the gungan army off-camera.  (since he is not believed to be an outcast this could seem more believable).

A new hope will mostly just be a hybrid of the blu ray and harmy's despecialized edition (assuming I can get his permission of course).  


ESB will be mostly that too, with some other small ideas and fixes.  (adjusting contrast of scenes which involve a lightsaber to restore the white cores.  Also another tweak I plan on doing is in the shot of luke hanging underneath the imperial walker he bombs have the lighting darkened significantly, boosting the contrast when he opens his lightsaber for the split second so that it has a white core but everything else still seems dark)

And ROTJ is being worked on now.

For the record, I don't have a huge problem with the softening of vader's character in ROTJ.  To me, it makes sense that meeting his son would soften him up a bit.
