Do you have any updates on this project. I Wish you luck in this endevor and I would love to see your Workprint.

 There hasn't been any work done on this edit for a few months now - and there probably won't be until some new footage comes online. Probably the Tydirium fan film, or some other cool looking fan film set on Endor.

Re: getting rid of the ewoks. It would take a huge amount of reshooting and/or great fan film footage to make it work. So you would replace ewok stuff with rebel troops on the ground planning and fighting, and maybe then it would be possible. If you cut the ewoks without having some really great replacement footage it just wouldn't work.

Re: the lightsaber building scene. It looked like total crap so I got rid of it. You'd need to be GREAT with cgi stuff (or be willing to spend some money on this edit... and, nope) to make it look other than total crap... and I'm not even half decent. Hopefully Adywan and his team of magicians will do something similar, because I really dig the idea.

Anyway, the workprint is still online, so if anyone else wants to download it I'm just a PM away.
