Reading about The Fallen Knight

Cut Canto Bight completely, and then cut Rey / Kylo / Luke stuff?

Jeez… the point of cutting Canto Bight is to focus on their story, not shorten it.

That’s one edit I’m gonna skip

I loved it when I first saw it, but the more I thought about it the more continuity errors and other issues I noticed. Holdo and Rose appear out of nowhere and Finn is only in the first and last 15 minutes of the entire film. The scene of Poe getting demoted is intact yet feels jarring as Poe’s entire arc is otherwise cut. I’m also baffled as to why it didn’t cut things like the ridiculous telegraphing of Snoke’s death and the Chewie eating a porg. It felt rushed and more of a template for future, more in depth edits. I still enjoyed parts of it and the inclusion of the deleted scenes was really well implemented.
