Again, it's still early to give updates, but as far as recent developments go.

============================

Reel 1 - Started, Intro / Crawl done + 5 min - 40% completion

Reel 2 - Completed First Pass

Reel 3 - Approaching 90% completion

Reel 4 - Approaching 50% completion  (Might be more).

Reel 5 - Completed First Pass

Reel 6 - Started, End Credits done +5 min - 40% completion

Those numbers where given are rough estimates only.

Reel 1, and Reel 6 are coming along quickly with added machines and another member working on them.

We also have some replacement shots lined up that will speed up certain segments.

The Greedo sequence has been replaced by a higher quality sequence.

Starfield shots, and some darker sequences are also for replacement.

Since there are different types of shots throughout the LPP, we will try to match the different ones without too much of disparity between them.

==============

We know that the amount of original film data is being altered by the cleaning, but almost all of it will be seamless, and unless you do a frame by frame comparison, it will not be noticeable.

Duplicate frames will be removed, and lost frames will replaced from other sources.

Again, we are not going to go by GOUT standards, or try to conform to it.

If people want to alter it afterwards, that will be up to them.

We'll continue posting progress on the clips, as we get them.
