What’s wrong with using the LotR scene?

One why use lord of the rings footage.

Two most people will pick up on this.

Three Gandalf doesn’t sound like a jedi name and they explain in attack of the Clones that Yoda is count dookus master and star wars a greddy future not fantasy.

Since the definitive versions of the SW saga will always be movies to me. They can be fanedits, but they should still be seperated into the Episodes they are traditionally known as. Thus, I see this project more as an alternative than a replacement. Consequently, I think this should be more experimental in an attempt to make the story as long as possible without losing cohesion or becoming boring. I see it as a fun challenge. I don’t know if that’s what the OP intended, but tbf, he opened the can of worms of using other films’ footage.

People picking up on it being from LotR is besides the point.

I was just calling Gandalf to discuss the scene cuz that’s his name in the film. Presumably, he would have a different name. I didn’t say he was Dooku’s master, just a master. Actually, SW is both gritty futurism and fantasy, but I get what you mean; Middle-Earth doesn’t look like SW. Here’s the thing; we would only be using the walk in the woods by the tower, which could easily be SW (haven’t ever seen a SW fan film?) and the fight scene, which takes place in a room that looks no less SW than the Emperor’s throne room, or Snoke’s, for that matter.
