It’s hard to imagine TROS in particular being subjected to much fan editing, being such an aggressive and breakneck movie. I will try to understand it, but I suspect it’s as vacuous as it seems. No one had the chance to put any thought into it, so the surface level is the entirety of it.
I do get the feeling there’s more depth and thought put into it than what the theatrical cut suggests. From hearing JJ and Chris Terrio talk about the themes of the saga, I feel that when we get the deleted material back in the film we’ll get a fuller picture of what the filmmaker’s real artistic expression was before they stuck the film in a blender. I may be wrong, but that’s my perception/hope.
