Leia going to Tattooine with Captain Antilles and R2 & 3P0 but all of a sudden being part of of the profundity Mothership Hatching out of that ship at Scariff like a jack in the box.
Also what are so many Alderaan soldiers doing aboard a Mon Calamari Vessel?
I am cool with it but what ever it was before it got changed it was probably paired down from Leia having to turn back from Tattooine as Admiral Raddus sends out a distress signal and Leia scoops the Plans somehow via another transmission just before the Profundity get’s oblitterated.
It will be something along these lines I think.
It’s still good but Obvious Re-shoots are obvious Re-shoots especially when it’s contradicting.
It’s Equally Possible that if you had the Scene of Luke Looking through his Binoculars on Tattooine Vader would have been aboard a part of the Tantive that had a power outage (remember that explosion) when he slayed those Rebels and the Card was passed through the door. Obviously it get’s passed to a soldier and then to Leia.
If there was ever evidence that the films were going to overlap perhaps this was an overlap and was retooled perhaps it’s not an insert but simply paired with Raddus ship.
The Card could be where Obi-wan was located on Tattooine.
Is the guy who has the card the same one who screams “GO!” and locks the door? (actually he say’s “Launch!” But it very much looks like “Gooooo!”)
I don’t have the answer I know I like it though. I think it was an overlap with A new hope it was just paired down in editing. It would definitely explain “Prepare the Escape Pod’s” then it would be 100% Gold.
