Thank you for the work restoring deleted scenes.

Do you have any plans restoring the ones from A New Hope? Those ones would be the most challenging because the quality is extremely poor. In particular, I liked the deleted scene where Luke looks up with binoculars to see the space battle. I think that gives us a much better introduction to his character.

I don’t think I’ll have any plans on doing A New Hope, I tried doing it but I ran into too many problems in Photoshop.

Good job cleaning this up. I like it. It looks good. Shame that there isn’t any accompanying scene footage to insert your edit. The Royal Guards have little screen time and I’ve always wanted to see a bit more of them in action.

Well done, it looks very clean. May I have permission to use it in my edit with credit?

I like you, let us burn things together.

I made an update to this in a new post, and yes you may use it in your own edit as long you give credit in the video description.

Bummer. Wanted to see your hard work. How about some screenshots, instead?

He doesn’t own Star Wars, buddy. You can share it.
We don’t ask Lucasfilm’s permission before sharing Altered versions of their films.
