The Empire Strikes Back - Expanded Edition (Work in Progress)
Time

I watched the first hour and I agree with the comments above. I like it very much except for the deletion of some original shots for inserting new scenes (the AT-AT falling) and the jarring deletion of “Well Your Highness I guess this is it”. Sound volume should be adjusted in my opinion, some scenes sound quite louder than others. And I’m not sure I like the use of the Special Edition Wampa for the missing Wampa shot being fired at by the rebel soldier. Love the coloring and the music/sound editing in some new scenes, for example in the extended Wampa attack to Luke at the beginning.

Personally I’m in favor of keeping the Cloud City establishing shots to theatrical, just so it doesn’t look too slick or modern in contrast to the grindhouse flair.

Me too. I don’t think you should use not even a single shot from the Special Edition. Your project seems to me like an attempt to archieve a complete “workprint” of the movie before trims were made. If you add SE material, it will be another hybrid cut and I think it will lose a lot of its uniqueness. My opinion only, of course.

Wow, your edit sounds nice, even though I don’t know if adding footage from “All Good Things” is maybe too jarring.
BTW, does anybody have a good copy of the workprint of this film that can share? I only have a terrible wmv version that’s almost unwatchable.

…Oh bugger, I was meaning to make an MP4…

An MP4 of your edit or the workprint? It’d be nice to have both 😃
