(including Vader in his prime)

I have to insist, but the weird guy killing random rebels with a red lightsaber at the end is not Vader: it’s Jason Voorhees wearing a Vader halloween costume (Rogue One is the best Friday the 13th since Jason X !). So yep, you can end up with something far superior by removing the shitty parts: that’s the spirit of fanediting. If you love the film as it is, don’t change it. The slim thing is not even that terrible compared to the lack of good characters…
