OBI-WAN KENOBI is excited, I'm sure.

I've got the workprint burned and ready. Probably have to wait till tonight to watch it.

40 minutes in, my wife has ALLOLed several times (she laughed at the Bender voice and she's never seen Futurama). She really likes Anakin channeling Vader.

I forget exactly when, but I spit soup while watching.

"Soup-spittingly hilarious!" -005

Actual Literal LOL (Laugh Out Loud).

Suggestion:

"Anakin Skywalker, a local boy"

"I'M A PERSON!"

Wife agrees, battle droids are a bit too loud.

She also thinks the Valorums recognizing/unrecognizing goes on a bit too long.

the video game graphics are cut off on the sides of my tv. the "O" in Obi-wan and the "L" in Maul are off.

Wait, MAUL? Too late to rerender "DARTH DARTH"?

Finished it. I was afraid it might drag on, but it looks like you managed to keep the pace up the whole time. Except for the points I already brought up, its ready to go!

By the way...

WHERE'S SPOCK?!

Spock in the final cut would be hilarious!

The franchises I get nerdy about are so obscure that not even most nerds know about them.

Thanks for the feedback 'ofive :-)

Battle droids - one of the things I thought I fixed in my first two workprint viewings was the battle droid noises.  They would sound fine in my headphones, but then listening on my 5.1 system they would be too loud.  First, are you on 2.0 or 5.1.  And second, are there specific ones you remember, or was it all of them in general?  Just an FYI, I've got notes back from two other reviewers so far and neither mentioned it.

I can see Mrs. [REDACTED]'s point on the Valorum bit, but I'll probably keep it the way it is.  Interested to hear if anyone else mentions it, however.

The graphics might be partly related to overscan on your TV.  On my main tv, which is pretty old, it cuts off even more.  But on my newer, smaller tv it only cuts off half the O and the L.  I also just checked on my PC and it's all there.  Ideally I would have it redone so that any overscan wouldn't be a problem, but a lot of VFX work went into that clip (none by me, btw), and I don't want to push it (or wait for it).

And the clip was done quite a while before I came up with Darth Darth.  Someone else mentioned that previously, incidentally.  I guess it will be one of the errors that adywan will have to fix when he does TRM:R ;-)

Spock is one of the clips I was trying to get integrated into the workprint, but it got delayed and I didn't want to hold the workprint up.  I'm planning on it being in the final cut.
