I also like Norman's latest attempt with the texture added.

Is there anyway to add black scorching along the edges of the orange jacket a bit? I think that may add to the effect of a severed arm which has been sliced/burned off by saber.

^^ I made this real quick in PS to illustrate what I mean. I might also take some liberties and make the floor a bit darker and grungy looking.

I don't think it's fair for me to give criticisms just yet. I have to view the movie at least 1 more time to really take it all in.

The only thing I'd still think about possibly changing is Obi Wan saying "I wanted you to have this" in reference to Anakin's saber. Which is something I understand Ady wanted to change for a long time but ultimately he wasn't satisfied with how it was turning out.

However, I think the reconstruction of the scene in question no longer calls for the change as much b/c it can be taken more as Obi Wan going into his lying/PoV mode - whereas in the original version it just seemed as though he was lying off the bat before even seeing the hologram and knowing it was time for Luke to begin training. With the shifting around we can take the comment less as an outright lie and more as part of his attempt to lure Luke into training to be a "Jedi" like his father.

Just curious if this is what you were going for Ady?

Wow..so today I learned about bit torrents and seeding...which I apparently was doing doing all day. LoL...but best of all I got to finally see SW revisited!

Great job Adywan...your attention to detail is much appreciated. I'm about to watch it one more time.

On one hand I'm happy to have a version of AnH that is truly deserving of the subtitle "Special Edition" but on the other hand I feel like this has put to shame GL and ILM for their lackluster job on the 04 DVD's.

Here's hoping they can craft something on this level in the future as well.

Thanks again.

Take care!

CONGRATULATIONS & THANKS ADYWAN...I have to say this project is like a dream come true for SW fans. For years I posted at a few other forums and we'd endlessly discuss changes and fixes we'd love to see GL make for a Saga box set that has yet to materialize.

It is awesome that a fan took the initiative and went above and beyond expectations to give us something we can be proud of and that truly honors AnH and the SW Saga.

I've been a long time reader of these boards but now I had to join officially - LoL I NEED a copy of this or a DL...

So much like everyone else I'll be on the lookout for this as it becomes available. I've watched the trailers and clips over and over several times the last few months so I am pumped.

Wassup everyone...great to be here.
