Small update.
Right now I’m working both on this one and my ROTJ V2, with the Disney+ version (1080p) as a base.

At this moment, the movie goes like this:
-Same opening with Kylo on Mustafar and then Exegol, but Palpatine is not mentioned in the crawl. I’m still not sure about all of this. I’ve read some interesting ideas. I don’t remember if it was Snooker or someone else who came up with the idea of placing Palpatine’s reveal for later, and simply make the Resistance & First Order interested in Exegol only because of the Sith fleet. That’s cool.
-Anyway… Finn and Poe with the Falcon are gone.
-On Pasaana Rey remembers that she killed her parents with Force Lightning. She tells that to Fiin (“I… I had a vision”. In the original she is talking about the Throne of the Sith, but in my edit it cuts to the following scene, so that we realize that she told him about the flashback on Jakku).
-Ochi and the Dagger are just a plot instrument to make the characters find the Wayfinder. Rey does not hear voices when she touches the dagger, and Ochi is just a random guy.
-During the Force connections with Kylo we still hear that all happened because of Palpatine. He wanted to find Rey, so her parents left her on Jakku to protect her. But while they were leaving, she killed them. I removed any mention of Palpatine wanting to kill Rey.
-Rey is still a Palpatine.
-All the chat about Finn wanting to tell something to Rey is gone.
-On Kijimi, I reversed 3PO’s voice and added subtitles. He clearly says that the Wayfinder is in the Throne Room. So there’s no need for the ridiculous “Oh, the Dagger is shaped like the Death Star!111!1!!!”.
