I totally agree with you MalaStrana! I think DigMod’s edit is fantastic. I think if you were to take his edit and implement the narrative restructure, you’d have something “truly special”. The main difference is he adds an opening crawl and I don’t.

Thanks for the interest! I haven’t had a chance to re-edit the first 30 minutes yet, but in the meantime I thought I’d share two other clips from the edit. The first is an attempt to show why Chirrut might want to save Jun and Cassian from the stormtroopers a few minutes later in the film. The second is the restructuring of U-Wing conversation between the Jedha and Eadu sequences.
