I know this seems kind of random, and I'm not sure if it has been brought up yet. (I've read about 100+ pages of this discussion so far between calls at work, so I'm trying to catch up, but that's A LOT of info to cover...)

Anyway, I noticed that on Dagobah (right before the X-Wing starts to sink) when Luke is doing the one-armed handstand with Yoda standing on his foot, right after he begins to levitate the first stone it cuts to R2 who slowly turns around, but looking closely you can see two little feet underneath R2. Perhaps this could be obscured by fog?

I've noticed that in general many shots with R2, because of the way he moves, make it seem obvious that Kenny Baker is acting inside. It's not necessarily a big deal, we know these are only movies after all, but is it worth a look at to see if there's any way to smooth/alter R2's movement in any shots so that it looks more like he's moving in his "wheel mode" instead of an odd wobbling?

I know this is part of R2's characterization, and I like his quirkiness at times, just not when it's too obvious, that's all. What does everyone else think?

God bless you and your family Adywan. Your family is more important than any old movie. If this project was more important than your family I wouldn't want it. As for your fund-raiser proposition, I think you mean well, but it's bad timing. What good is money when you're worried about your family. I think it's great that you're trying to show your support for Adywan though. I think right now it's best to be an emotional support, and when the time comes and Adywan is ready to continue with the project then we should bombard him with our monetary donations. Bombard him just like the TIE Bombers bombarded the asteroids searching for the Millenium Falcon in TESB. But right now we need to bombard him with emotional support. How's that for a terrible Star Wars related metaphor? ;)

This is my first time posting, I discovered Adywan's ANH:R about a month ago, and I love it. I can't wait for ESB:R. I've been trying to follow this thread, and while I haven't been able to read all 850 pages, I've read about 50 so far (thank goodness I have so much free time during work...) So without sounding too much like I'm sucking up to Adywan I'm very impressed by your work, and your meticulous attention to detail. A lot of changes are being made that I had no idea were problems, and I've watched these movies hundreds? of times... Either way, good job so far, I'm very excited about what I've seen in ESB:R, keep up the good work Adywan. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now for some more constructive thoughts... With all of the problems with the ship scales in the movies, do you plan on fixing all of these things so they are all properly scaled? Is it worth the effort? Also, is there anything that can be done about the Falcon set not being to scale? Can it be done, and would it be worth it? Just curious...
