Maybe we could have a Kaminoan just chilling in the background for a similar effect. It could wave to Ben, too.
Lol. “We’ve been expecting you.”
Well those tall figures obscured in robes, messing with the technology around the Snoke cloning pods, look like they could fit the description of Kaminoans.

Bravo man, that’s flawless execution. Now that I think of it it kind of symbolises Rey’s coming of age. Embracing her femininity as it will.

Yes, yes, yes, yes!!!
This is actually a dream come true!
This is exactly what I envisioned when I first saw the movie!
Amazing, amazing, amazing work!
It does make the blue lightsaber seem boring in comparison. I wish there was a sane way to have Ben use Anakin’s saber while Rey uses (and buries! Anakin hated sand.) Luke’s green one.
I just realized. When the saber flies into Rey’s hand, it’ll be that much more satisfying to visibly be Leia’s, right after we hear her very first posthumous word.
Resistance headquartered on Naboo, the Death Star wreckage on Endor, Leia having a purple blade, Jedi ghosts joining the fight, Rose’s theme bringing some resonance to Finn, and other things. None of these “solve” issues with the movie, but each are great to see. This is gonna be special, and hopefully a good note for this interpretation of the saga to go out on.
Yeah, I think I’m won over by the purple lightsaber. Odd that Lucasfilm didn’t grant Carrie Fisher’s wish in the film.
The name’s Lawson. Noah Lawson.

I am liking this, it feels like things are getting all tied together of a good blend between the good of the prequel movies and the nostalgia of the OT. The force ghost inclusion from Jonh is absolutely amazing. I totally dig the purple lightsaber now seeing it.
If a good VFX guy can show a planet from each era (PT, OT and ST) with a Star Destroyer being destroyed/exploding/falling apart … I will be turned on!
… I said it.
“Because you are a PalpaWalker?”
Lol, snooker was gonna do Coruscant to replace Endor, which is seen earlier now. So it’d be a planet from each trilogy.

Did I miss the discussion on this? How do you plan to accomplish it?
It was in snooker’s thread, but he mocked up adding Theed to the horizon, adding the Gungan head statues into the background, and maybe even ducks. Sound design can be overlaid to some exterior scenes. Maybe add one or two gungan extras to the briefing.
So it’s not a sure thing but he’s presented a compelling proof of concept for a plausible idea.

Speaking of this, do y’all think Rose’s theme would work when the space-horses are charging the star destroyer?
I think it turns Rose’s theme into a pseudo-Finn’s Theme and could work well.
Here’s a really REALLY, rough proof of concept: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1PwCT7Y_EWiJIatBFfZ5_bDutrhlKInmD
Since Ajan kloss has become Naboo in this version, should the shot of the planet be replaced by Naboo when Rey and Co leave for Passana?
Also I wonder if some gungan statues could be placed in the Luke and Leia flashback since the planet they trained on would now be on Naboo.

I reckon. Do they look that different?

I don’t see any real reason to go to all that effort, they’re already extremely similar:
I guess with some colour correcting they’d become identical.

STUNNING! That looks exactly the way it should. That’s some very good work!
I believe with that and the flashback earlier, that’s all of the blade’s appearance! Could you send me a lossless or highest possible quality output of this?
I think the colour needs to go little darker on the purple, like this.

Skenera, thank you. There may be a small bit of work yet if ghosts are added to a few shots, but this is a very welcome change. It makes more of a difference than I thought it would when it was first brought up.
I like the color, it doesn’t have to be identical to Windu’s.
Hal, I was thinking more about potential Finn dialogue for his scene with Jannah. A line that we might be able to piece together for it could be, “We belong here.”
We could take We belong from his deleted scene with Rose in TLJ where he says, “Where we belong”.
And in his scene with Jannah, he says, “The Force brought me here.”
I think the tone of both lines are similar, so it might work. If that doesn’t work, maybe we could try “This is where we belong.”
He says “This is” at the beginning of that scene as well.
Anyone think they could try and piece those lines together?

Perfection.

Wonderful.
Damn, watching that purple saber ignite for the first time once this is all completed is gonna be the definition of “hype”.
