While the crawl of Restructured is an improvement over the original and looks fantastic, It feels a bit cluttered when viewing it in a completed form. It lacks that…romantic feeling of the original, for lack of a better word. I feel like there should be more emphasis on Leia for my version, and less name-dropping, since the original Star Wars crawl only had four(!) names in it: Rebel, Galactic Empire, Death Star, and Princess Leia. TFA has eight, and Restructured has seven. I’ve managed to get it down to five:

The galaxy is in peril.
Far from the complacent
New Republic, a sinister
FIRST ORDER is building
a weapon that can devour
the very stars.

Haunted by visions of
this impossible weapon,
the disgraced General
Leia Organa and her
covert Resistance scour
the stars for allies to
forestall this impending
doom.

Arriving on a distant world,
one of her pilots has found
a clue to the location of
Leia’s long-lost brother,
the last of the Jedi Knights
and the First Order’s
ancient fear…
