I can tell I am not the only one with ideas for editing this movie, I loved most of the film (and I’ve seen it 7 times) my list of changes would go like this.
- Cut Finn and Rose (and their story) from the film almost entirely.
- Cut a lot of the “Guardians of The Galaxy” style modern humor from the film.
- Remove Leia flying through space.
- Add emphasis to “Balance” during Rey’s training.
- Find some way to work in Sir Alec Guinness as either a physical Force Ghost or maybe just speaking to Luke or Rey.
- Clean Up plot holes between TFA and TLJ.
- Give Luke Green Saber instead of Blue.
- Make the Rey/Kylo scenes seem less romantic.
I have been thinking of Titles since my first viewing of the film and I believe I have decided on Star Wars The Last Jedi: Balanced Edition
