Great Trailer!

Maybe you can rework the actual ST into a sequel to this, with Luke vanishing in his search for his sister. Though he doesn’t find her, he finds her daughter Rey. It’s an idea I toyed with for my own edits, but eventually decided it deviated to far from canon, not to mention it robs Rey of her powerful backstory of being not related to anyone famous. However, since this edit clearly doesn’t care for canon in the slightest, I’d say it would be a good idea for it.

I can’t wait to see your progress on this edit! IMO, Return of the Jedi needs some major tweaks in order for it stand up to the other two movies in the saga, and by the looks of it your edit might make this film as good as it deserves to be!

Interesting idea. Snooker is competent in reworking movies so that might just work with the resources we may have when (if he ever decides to) he gets to the ST.

How should I open the film? I want the first moment to be 3PO and R2 going through the desert, but I don’t know how to transition from space to that?

Obviously after the crawl it’s going to pan down to Tatooine, but I don’t know what ship should be flying towards it? Maybe an X-Wing and the Falcon, but I feel like showing the Falcon in the opening shot would be a mistake. I don’t know.

I’m also working on a trailer. Here’s a shot from it:

Maybe you could start the film with Luke and yoda. Then tatooine. I readed this change in a other Fanedit. I forgot the Title 😛

Heres a suggestion pan down to space falcon landing on Tatooine. Wipe to luke building his lightsaber, and then c3po and r2d2 go off to jabas palace.

You have no idea how much I hate the Luke saber scene. It ruins his great reveal later on in the movie, as well as not really serving a purpose in the story.

This.

Honestly, I don’t understand why people are so enamoured with this scene.

Because people go nuts over deleted scenes, no matter how poorly done or why they were deleted in the first place.

My opinion on deleted scenes unless it pushes the overall story don’t put it in the movie.

I need help with the crawl. I don’t know what to put in it that would be directly relevant. There isn’t a second death star so most of the original crawl is gone. Perhaps talk about how the rebellion is on its last legs and is desperate to strike a blow against the Empire? But then how do I tie in the Jabba sequence.

I think it would be best if the final paragraph said that Luke had finished his preparations to rescue Han Solo, then panning down to Tatooine.

I don’t know, I’m thinking out loud.

Here what i would say in the crawl.

Episode 6 Revenge of The Jedi

The Rebellion Needs Han Solo To Survive! Meanwhile Vader and The Empire Are Searching to the end of the galaxy for Luke Skywalker after he slipped thorough the Fingers Of Lord Vader.

2 Months After The Shocking betrayal at the hands of Lando Calrissian. Luke Skywalker has returned to his home planet of Tatooine and is Waiting for The arrival of the Millennium Falcon. Luke Skywalker and The Rebellion had just finished there preparations to rescue the charming Han Solo from
The Evil Gangster Jaba the Hutt…

This for the most part, although I will say about this scene specifically I really like the bit where Vader talks to Luke via ForceTime.

The number and paragraphs and paragraph structure is way off, I know that RotJ was the one whose crawl diverged the most from the traditional style, but this is too much.

This isn’t a final Draft this is just a pitch so he can get a general idea.

Wouldn’t it be a good idea to take most of the Crawl establishing the imperial capitol and why the rebellion might destroy it and give more information on that end of the story? Considering you probably will be lacking for elaboration upon their attack in the regular film. Which kind of brings me to a question, what do you plan to do with the briefing scene? That could be a place to help lay out some expositon.

I tried to do this, but didn’t work:

1st paragraph general state of the galaxy: it’s in darkness; post esb; weak regrouping rebellion.

2nd paragraph setup of the plot: assault on Endor;

3rd paragraph setup of initial first few scenes: luke jabba etc,

i ran into the same problem with tying paragraph 2 to 3

I see them as events that canonically happened (unless they directly contradict other scenes) which the director decided weren’t needed from a storytelling perspective. Just like any other scene in the movie, a faneditor may chose to leave it out.

I strongly disapprove on putting the blame on Lando for the Han’s capture. He was being held at metaphorical gunpoint and ordered to betray the Rebels.
