I made this mockup a few weeks ago and forgot to upload it until now:

I’ve never really been on board with the restructure idea, but after seeing this, I’m pretty much sold. Looks like I’ll be trying out a hybrid of my own with this project when this is finished.
There were some noticeable slowed down scenes during some of the resistance faces. Your Leia interpretation is exactly how I felt watching this. The Hosian sequence is perhaps a bit too long? The X-wing shots when the Star Killer fires are superbly done. I did watch this all on a phone without headphones, so I’ll be back to with more after that.
