I think what you’re missing Malastrana
Well… no actually. Read my previous posts (the one where I was mentionning a flashback structure for example) and you’ll get that I’m not missing any point at all regarding what a fanedit film is… the fact is this project isn’t supposed to be a full length movie, but a short story. This project isn’t mine, but the goal of The battle of Scarif is made clear on the first post of this thread, so, again, if you don’t agree with it and if you begin to think that the two first acts of the movie should be put back and that Giacchino’s score should be left intact I guess you should just stick to the theatrical cut or just wait for a minimal edit that will only remove a few minutes because (in case I’m repeating myself) this is not the goal of this edit.
I have the feeling that fanedits of the Disney movies are taken personally by some, as if their personal belief was threatened by the mere xistence of people who don’t think Episode VII/Rogue One to be brillant SW movies and start cutting them down… kinda reminds me of the people who where struggling against PT fanedits because they thought (and were right to think what they wanted to think) the movies were perfect…
