Which specific aliens and droids are you going to change the voices for?

Can you do anything to fix the continuity with Ewan McGregor’s hair and weight in TPM and fake beard in AOTC, or is that too much for you?

In ROTS, when Anakin arrives on Mustafar, and puts his hood on, it looks like they forgot to change Hayden Christensen’s right hand. It’s still fleshy!

I think the digital head replacements for Christopher Lee and Ian McDiarmid could use some touching up on.

What will you do about Vader’s “Noooooo!”?

At least Jar Jar, Gun-Gun’s, Droids, Waiter in ATOC, Etc.
His hair, probably not. Weight either. That is definitely probably more than i can do. Replacing his hair would involve finding all those right frames some where else. They would need to be lit right and more. It would turn out like trying to replace a lightsaber hilt through out a battle scene. Too many angles to duplicate. You’re not likely to find all the angles you need. Then on top of that they would all have to be blended to match the scene.
Anakin’s hand i can definitely fix.
Which scene for Dooku and Sidious are you referring to?
Vader’s No is going bye bye. In fact, Vader is going bye bye from the prequels. Only way to preserve the narrative of the OT. He will not be named Vader, and you wont see him turn to Vader. Last youll see him is burning on Mustafar.

Does this mean the shot of Vader and Sidious looking at the construction of the Death Star at the end will be removed too?

I would like to improve that shot though. Moff looks terrible imo and the rest of the scene very clean cgi. The idea of keeping it tho but cutting ties to Anakin is so that the mystery in ESB is maintained. The idea behind it to me is that the Emperor is killing Anakin too. No one will ever know that Anakin was Vader, they would just assume Anakin died too. Partly to re-inforce to Anakin that that side of him is dead and he is only Vader now.

The biggest thing im not wholly sure how to handle is the birth of the twins. Idk if i should just strike Leiah from the scene and Lukes name. Just cut Leiah and keep Luke being named. Move their birth to earlier in the film and try to cut and redo the dream/death of them in his mind. Im not sure how Ady is handling Leiah having known her mother. Should i just cut Padame dying? Maybe try and find a way to do a scene of her alive after Anakins death?

Remove the entire childbirth scene altogether. In fact, remove the scene where Obi-Wan meets Padmé upon arriving back to the ship after his duel with Anakin. The last time we see a living Padmé should be when Anakin Force-chokes her. Since you’re also cutting the scene where Sidious discovers Anakin’s burned body on Mustafar, we should cut from Obi-Wan getting back to the ship to the shot of the ship arriving on Naboo.

As for the twins? We should assume that they’re just babies whose parents died in Order 66. And in A New Hope, everytime Obi-Wan, Owen, and Beru talk about Luke’s father, they should be referring to a different Jedi and not Anakin (that also means Luke shouldn’t say “Skywalker” when he arrives at Leia’s prisoner cell).

(Maybe Anakin can still be shown becoming Vader, as long as you remove Obi-Wan meeting Padmé as he gets back to the ship, as well as the childbirth and any direct mention of Luke and Leia being related to Anakin or Padmé, to keep the reveal of Luke’s father being Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader intact.)
