I must say this edit is near-perfect for me. However I don't care about the changes that make it fit more in line with the original like the crawl, I actually disliked the old logo and the missing planet names.

I agree with the actual story edits very much, and I was positively surprised to see the mind reader alien was not removed, I find it to be one of the grittiest scenes in all of Star Wars. I have not watched this with the original side-by-side or back-to-back but I feel the edits are indeed vastly improving the film. I hope I could give you details on that.

What more could one ask for from an edit this flawless? Oh, that's right: how about an absolutely immaculate video quality? Sure the largest file is massive at 20.4gb on a last-generation codec but that only means you can recode with x265 and maintain a crisp preservation-worthy quality at ~4gb. That spells perfect in my book!
