Sounds like an interesting cut list. I like your idea about removing Lando from Pasaana - if you can cut around that and still have the movie make sense, that’d be great. I think for a lot of people that’s around the point where the frantic pacing begins to become confusing, and in the cinema I never picked up on why Lando happened to be there; it just felt like an even more egregious version of Han showing up in TFA. Saving Lando for Poe’s moment of doubt would make it a lot more powerful, and IIRC that scene is even structured such that Lando’s arrival from the shadows is something of a ‘reveal’, especially if you could add in Poe saying “General!” or similar. He says ‘General Calrissian’ when they meet on Pasaana but it’s not in quite the right tone of voice.

‘Cool!’ etc

I also heard this in the theatre, but the subtitles claim it’s “Ghouls.”.

Edit: I’ve read online it’s a reference to this. I feel like we can vastly improve TROS by redubbing masked Kylo with lines from this movie as often as possible.
