At any rate, I understand that this is your edit, and your vision of how the movies should work - a lot of people are saying you *have* to do this and *have* to do that, when you don't have to do anything of the sort. I appreciate that you're entertaining all of our suggestions though.
My own two cents on ESB are that I liked a lot of the 2004 changes, especially the dialogue between Vader and the Emperor. Of course Vader was already aware of Luke's existence, but him feigning surprise at the Emperor's revelation of Luke's paternity is a perfect set up for the Bespin duel when Vader implores Luke to help him overthrow the Emperor: we see that Vader is more crafty than we had thought and that he has his own secrets that he keeps from his master. It also ties in nicely with the Sith Rule of Two. Finally, having "Anakin Skywalker" mentioned in ESB helps tie the Saga together imo.
The same thing goes with Boba's voice. Lucas could have gone wild and redubbed all of the Stormtrooper's voices, but he didn't. Boba's voice being redubbed ties back to Ep2 and reminds us of Jango and the entire reason why the Empire is in power in the first place. Again, there is that connection to the PT tying the Saga together. I'd hate to see it go.
I'm a huge f/x nut, so I liked the computerized shot of the shuttle landing in the Executor. I'd love to see it kept in somehow, but understand the criticism that it ruins the pacing of the movie.
I also wonder if there is any way to change the sequence of Boba loading up the frozen Han onto the Slave 1. That shot always struck me as being so flat and two dimensional. This would probably be very difficult to do.
Finally, I really like the fact that they added in the windows to Cloud City - it helped make it seem as though it were an actual city, and not just the inside of a spaceship.
These are just my thoughts, thanks at least for considering them. Oh, and even though there's to be no talk of the ROTJ edits, by god, that idea of Luke having Sith eyes when he defeats Vader would be incredible.
