The more and more I hear about this deleted caretaker village scene, the more I understand why it was cut.

Luke mourning Han’s death however will be a great addition to any fan edit.

Agreed on both counts. I also like the idea of the Rey hologram recording, though I don’t know how well it would fit pacing wise.

Wait, I thought the scene with Finn and the one storm trooper was in the film. Or do they just mean they shortened it down?

By one stormtrooper do you mean Phasma?

Nono, it was before they were caught, but I think after BB-H8 noticed them.

Yeah, it’s been talked about in articles and stuff since right around release time because of whose cameo was lost when the scene got cut. (I can’t remember who at the moment though.) But it was never in the movie.

Whether what she recounts is accurate or not, she’s going to be in trouble for this one:
Star Wars 8: Rian Johnson THREW OUT JJ Abrams entire Last Jedi outline says Daisy Ridley

Ah mate - that’s from the Daily Express - who seem to often run/sensationalise a daily click-bait Star Wars article taken out of context just to get hits. They are not reliable - or accurate in their reporting/article content - personally I’d take anything that appears from there with a pinch of salt.
 

A more accurate article in the context of what Daisy Ridley originally said, and where she said it, can be found here:-

http://uk.ign.com/articles/2018/03/02/jj-abrams-wrote-drafts-for-star-wars-8-and-9-says-daisy-ridley

and the translated article mentioned in it, can be found here - link

Wow, I must be having one of those “grappling hook” moments of my own, because I swore there was a quick scene where someone recognized Finn, and I didn’t even read those articles about the guy being cut.

Questionable source or not, they provide the full quotes as well as link back to the full translation in that tumblr blog. She did say those things if the translation is accurate.

They made a typo in the first sentence of the article, that’s the calibre of tabloid gibberish we’re talking about. ‘RJ didn’t use JJ’s drafts’ is one headline, but ‘RJ THREW OUT JJ’s script’ gets more views. And if he did… so what? His job allows that. It’s a nothing clickbait article.

It’s not really anything we didn’t already know, and I think something’s being mistranslated. JJ never wrote a “draft” for VIII, Rian was writing while TFA was being filmed, which means while TFA was still being rewritten.

Nothing that really stood out to me as far as accents went (but I don’t pick up accents well). He sounded young though, and gave me the impression he was a fresh recruit more than anything, and a little in his late teens/early 20’s. The big thing was less he was surprised Finn got promoted faster than him, but more at how fast Finn got promoted, surprised he was seen as officer material.

Yep, quality journalism right there.
