Star Wars - Rise of the Dark Side (a PT 3-in-1 edit)

This is a nice idea IMHO. Doing a 3-in-1 edit with older Obi-wan telling Luke what happened and some voice over during the movie. If you could get someone who has a similar voice to Alec Guinness, you could get only the most interesting parts of the 3 movies and have a really nice story that doesn’t contradict what is said in the original trilogy. This can be the best approach to really turn those awful movies into something that we all can enjoy. 😃

Looking forward to see how your edit goes.

Use old Obi-Wan and Luke as an intro and some voice overs

Very interested in that.

Well, it’s not exactly Obi Wan telling Luke what happened per say…

It’s more like Obi Wan is answering Luke’s questions about his father and then when he asks “how did my father die?” we then see Obi Wan kind of freeze on that question and then flash to the Star Wars logo and opening crawl. We’d be coming back to Obi Wan once Vader’s helmet is lowered onto Anakin and we hear the iconic breath a few times. Then Obi Wan says how Vader betrayed and murdered Luke’s father. This also helps line up what Obi Wan says in ROTJ that it’s true from a certain point of view (still a dick move, but it aligns things properly). I’m not sure yet, but we will jump back one last time for the ending from older Obi Wan to the conversation between Yoda, Bale and Obi Wan about going into hiding and we will end not on the binary sunset shot, but on Obi Wan looking at the Lars’ as they are holding Luke.
