Star Wars Episode III: Labyrinth Of Evil (Released)
Time

Just little things. There's a few brief lines and shots that I reinstated, but the main benefit of v4 is that it will look so much better, thanks to Hundsdorfex's care with a few shots, schorman13's HDTV source, and DrDre's algorithmic upscale of the deleted scenes. V4 will be it, save for an encode using Emanswfan's regraded version. But I'm not holding anything back in anticipation. As picky as I am, V4 will be the completion. New commentary tracks have been recorded, with things being locked and set.

Since the cat was out of the bag, I tracked down the piece of fic so I could at least see what it said. I was comforted by the comments that the potential spoiler is a hope on the writer's part, and not necessarily, for all I know, a bonafide plot leak.

Thanks to Hundsdorfex's amazing dedication, we have yet another cool little FX tweak. This time, it allows me to better integrate this scene. Not only did he recolor Leia's eyes to brown, but he painted out Bail's figure from the balcony so I could use that establishing shot. Also, I desaturated and recolored Alderaan somewhat to better match the footage of Natalie Portman.

Smithers' Prequel Fanedits (a Work In Progress)

Here's a quick rewrite, if it's any help. Just spit-balling; not trying to say it's any better necessarily. Also, I think the term "intergalactic" implies that they operate across multiple galaxies. 'Intragalactic' might sound somewhat strange, so maybe a different title would fit better. 

It is a time of foreboding for the galaxy. After centuries of peace, many isolated star systems have been attacked by the intergalactic Slave Trade Federation.

Queen Amidala of the peaceful planet Naboo has managed to escape her home system with the assistance of two Jedi, guardians of peace and justice in the Galactic Republic.

To prevent further oppression from the Federation, she must venture to the galactic capital to plead for intervention to save her people and restore peace to the galaxy....
