Does anyone know why in the SE's the Sunset in ANH was blue and black


I like the windows, too. The only part that bugs me is the Cloud Car fly-by right before the fixed single-story room with Leia.

 I really like the updated Cloud City scene. I always hated the original because it reminded me too much of ALIEN and 2001. But yeah, the fly by looks really fake and I don't think it was needed.

 

The addition of the actual actor for the Emperor in the ESB scenes was nice.

Taking out the wolf man in ANH was good. I think that's it.

No explanation necessary (but we got one anyway)
Time

I didn't like the allusions to Jesus either, in regards to Anakin.

Explaining how the Force works, when it was already done in ESB was pretty bad.

You had Yoda and this elegant explanation of, "It surrounds us...luminous beings are we, not this crude matter."

It seems like Lucas wanted to add more of a SF angle to his story by adding symbiotes, and midichlorine counts. The Force went from this cool mystical thing to a video game power up bar.

Your first reaction to Hayden is ROTJ
Time

I was never a big Star Wars fan but when I first saw the new scene it just felt off. You got old Obi Wan and a very young Anakin.

Don't get me wrong, I wasn't crazy about Sebastian Shaw as a force ghost. I always thought that had Darth Vader not become a robot, he would still look like a tough old man.

 

If they were going to put in young Anakin, they should have took out Obi Wan and put in Padme. I know it makes even less sense, but visually, it's smoother.
