Episode IX: The Rise Of Skywalker - Discussion * <strong><em>SPOILER THREAD</em></strong> *
Time

Anakin Starkiller said:

Lucasfilm shouldn’t make Episode X though. The saga will be beyond complete. If they really want more episodes that badly, they should make a new saga, starting at Episode I.

I hope that’s what Rian’s trilogy is. A story set in the same universe wholly disconnected to Skywalker’s or Jedi.

Also, does the ‘Meeting With Palpatine’ scene with Mace and Padme need to be the second scene in the movie? Can we go straight from the first assassination attempt to the apartment scene? All the Palpatine scene serves is to establish some political context for the movie, which we don’t need right away.

Here’s my proposed structure:

Crawl
First Attempt
Apartment
Bounty Hunter Chase
Jedi Council
Palpatine Meeting
Packing

etc.

One of the opening scenes of Attack of the Clones with a few changes:

No Jar Jar
Color correction
Zero anger between Obi-Wan and Anakin
Anakin’s introduction to Padme is cut down
Some minor re-scoring

JEDIT: Forgot to mention that I removed every “M’lady” in the scene as it’s the worst word in the English language.

I wanted to try something suggested in this lovely article:

It would have been more dramatically satisfying if Obi-Wan reports these suspicions to the Council only for them to do nothing and have Obi-Wan be frustrated by it. Have Anakin’s crisis of faith be paralleled by one for Obi-Wan only to have them arrive at different places – Anakin turning away from the Jedi while Obi-Wan stays loyal even amidst their failure.

Obi-Wan, after speaking with Jango, goes to report his findings to the council:

(The dialogue at the start is hard to hear. Oops!)

Using dialogue from Battlefront, Obi-Wan comes off as a little less dry. He’s frustrated and ready to take on the challenge without the backing of the Council. I’ve also removed as many ‘clunky’ lines as I possibly could.

There’s also some re-scoring that I’ve been toying around with. I hate the music in the original ‘I must go, Padme’ scene, so I thought this track might fit better.

Using the Battlefront tunnel element:

For the center location of the vortex, I used Force Awakens to guide my placement.

Colors inside the cockpit are still a heavy WIP, and I’d like some help with that to make it match Force Awakens.

Also, I’m only done with the masking that you see in the shot. Shit’s time consuming 😦
