Ivan’s crowd appear to be largely TLJ haters- those who despise a vast majority of the changes made. That isn’t a bad thing in it itself, there are some people who think that here, and we all get to respectfully share our opinions. But when surrounded by a community that continues to hate upon hate you get into a situation where anything is better.
My assumption is the praise does not come out of the edit’s quality. The people are only interested in story. They don’t care if the audio is odd or the cuts on dough, or even if the story contradicts itself as long as it directly fixes their issues with Kathleen Kennedy and Rian Johnson the edit is a masterpiece. If it creates new problems, eh who cares.
My greatest worry now is towards the children of those in this community. When (more likely if xd) their parents show them Star Wars for the first time, Episode 8 will be called “The Last Jedi Re-Edit”. 😦
Lol He didn’t think to give it an appealing name. May as well just called it ‘The Last Jedi Fanedit.’
I agree people just WANT to like it because they hate the original. I personally thought the original was terrible, but I don’t hate it enough to accept this turd as a replacement.
Hahaha… I know. At least the people on here know how to name an edit. Before I started editing, I watched his stuff and thought that some of the ideas were fine. But when I watched it, I just found myself skipping around and feeling glad that I did my own edit lol.
