After seeing a bad Star wars movie this always calms me down: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBrLHMCTDAA

implying TLJ was a bad Star Wars movie

Also, I’m glad they edited that out in the Special Edition. I cringed watching it

No. I have not seen it yet. Probably never will. But whenever you watch a Star Wars movie you don’t like just watch the Ewok Celebration.

Unless you don’t like ROTJ. Then watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iH6a1iYQ0GA

Definitely more my thing 😃

Feedback Wanted: Palpatine creating the army in TPM?

Okay Episode II is still necessary imo because we should know about Anakin and Padme and how they fell in love, but it does makes for a weird ending for AOTC.

The more I think about it, the more it works out, though. I could say in the crawl that Separatists have been an increasing threat, and the Republic has been using the army to counter them more and more- and the whole “ten years ago” makes more sense in AOTC since Palpatine had created the army ten years prior

Not trying to gloat but you’re realizing my concepts from 2015 lol wait for my edit

I literally stole this idea from you

And you better get on that buddy boi I might beat you to it 😤

My two cents: Who cares if AotC is pointless. Just make TPM Episode II if it makes it pointless.

Darth Sidious was definitely referred to in the PT.

I wasn’t about to double check, haha, thanks.

He’s referred to as “Lord Sidious” by the Nemodians many times in TPM, and by Dooku in AOTC. I know this for sure because in my edit Dooku is a Jedi and he warns Obi-Wan of a Sith controlling the Senate

In ROTS Grevious, Nute Gunray, and Yoda all call him Lord Sidious. Yoda also calls him Darth Sidious when they first face off in his office.

Yes

I saw this in one of Smithers’ preview videos, and have considered using this in my own edit of TPM, but I realized that there isn’t much of a central conflict in AOTC if the army is created in TPM, since the whole idea of a clone army had been around for 10 years.

What say y’all? Is it a reasonable edit, or does it make AOTC pretty much pointless? If this were to happen, my AOTC edit would almost completely be about Anakin and Padme, which isn’t too awful with good editing

Also, one last thing. I like the recoloring in the “Fatherly Ties” scene, but BOY OH BOY, that dialogue, “Betting on races.” I’ts objectively worse than anything else said in the prequels. Yeah the virgin birth in the PT wasn’t handled well, but this is not how it should be fixed

I don’t want to be a dick, I think it’s just a really dumb sequence of dialogue

That’s not the word “objectively” should be used for. Your opinion is not a fact.

Besides, “Love won’t save you; only my new powers can do that.” is by far the worst thing said in any movie, not even just SW.

I say it somewhat facetiously, but it’s awful dialogue. What you listed was just a dumb stand-alone line said. This is supposed to be an answer to a question asking for a person, but answers with a dependent clause

And did you just imply that your statement is fact? 🤔

I agree with most of these changes except for why remove the mention of the emperor

As people who enjoy the prequels they get a nice reference

As for the people who haven’t seen the prequels it adds more back story to Anakin and the emperor

I love what you implied here

I have received a lot of positive feedback on the color grading, and the removal of the purple (horrible) grade on the movie, as well as the “kids movie-feel” in the very, very bright and shiny colors. I hope you’ll like the grade better upon your viewing.

I see what you mean. I didn’t notice any purple grade on the movie, though- I’ll probably take that into consideration now once I work on my edit. Also, it sounded like you implied that there’s a full release out. Is there? I’d really like to see this thing in its entirity

Okay I have a lot to say about this

  1. Opening: really good until it gets to the weird montage about genocide(?) I really like how you edited it so that they barely make it past the blockade right at the start of the movie. Not sure how you’re going to handle getting off the planet since you’ve already used all the shots, though.

  2. I’m going to go under the assumption you’re not trying to make the film more like the OT, and make it something else. That recoloring, though- off-putting imo, but that’s just me

  3. I really like the music cue when Qui-Gon died

  4. I really like that Amidala called the Federation right after her communications cut out. Might steal that in my edit, but I’m using Anti-Cheese for the Nemodians so maybe not

I like this. I think a light edit of TLJ to take out the fat is definitely in order

However, I didn’t mind the milk drinking scene, the SNL opening, nor most of the casino scene except for Rose’s rant and a few bits. From Canto Bight I would only cut out her stupid rant, that part where Fin says “Felt good though, to hit em where it hurts”, that one stupid thing that horded the coins, and anything shoving muh animal abuse in your face

Star Wars saga - Extra Extended Edition (1080p) (* unfinished project / WIP *)
Time

Not sure if this has bee noted or not, but the best quality you’re going to find the deleted scenes for any prequel movie is 1080p- that’s as high as Lucasfilm went for releasing them, they didn’t upscale them any more for the Blu-Ray release.

Imo a DVD version would probably be better than going back and forth between Blu-Ray and barely 1080p quality clips
