Synopsis:
This is for the most part a hybrid of the various versions of Empire Strikes Back, bringing out the best in each. However, there are also a few original changes that aim to subtly modernize the film and bring it in line with the saga, but without changing the tone or feel of the original version. Some improved visual effects, a remastered sound mix, and improved color grading as well as one or two cuts.

Intentions:
I wanted the best parts of each version of Empire Strikes Back to be combined into one definitive version that I can watch without missing something from a different version.

Change List:
This is in no way a complete cutlist, just some of the bigguns: *All lightsaber and blaster bolts re animated (courtesy of Telecine_7) *New color grade *Original Wampa scene restored *Most instances of altered dialogue for the Special Edition were reverted to the original version *Custom sound mix providing the best of each mix for each scene *Original Boba Fett voice restored *Special Edition Emperor Palpatine is used, but edited to be closer to the original dialogue *Many other restorations of distracting special edition moments *A Few New Surprises.
