The Star Wars Show shows off a deleted scene!
Good news:
The time code is outside the image.Bad news:
The effects are unfinished, so it would take a lot of work to make it useable.Perhaps other deleted scenes are in better condition, if they’re not effects heavy.
It’s a nice scene but probably unfixable for any fans. It’s one of the few settings in the movie with such heavy background compositing though, off the top of my head I doubt too many of the other scenes will be in this kind of shape.
Nothing’s unfixable. 😉 If this is a scene people want to use I think it could be done. By me or someone else.
It absolutely can be improved (by fixable I mean professional quality). There are certain things that’d be real tricky without resources though, mainly the background replacement.
Yeah, it wouldn’t be easy and it wouldn’t be flawless. I’m mostly worried about all the rotoscoping you’d have to do, and the hardest part is probably Phasmas armor which they enhance digitally to get the right reflections, hence all the red tracking dots on her.
Yup, exactly.
Personally I’m not sure I consider the scene worth the work, I don’t feel a huge urge to put it back in.
I quite like the scene, it’s a nice little moment for both Finn and Phasma, but ultimately I’d be very surprised if it doesn’t totally kill the pacing of that sequence. Plus, the final Finn/Phasma moment is already pretty great anyway.
It’s pretty good, at least it fleshes out Phasma a bit more (but for what?). But the “rebel scum” line doesn’t feel as good here.
