Also the topic of moving the Han scene with Kylo is interesting and I dod recall this topic some time back. I would need to sit on it and think, since I like it help bolster the idea of “Leia used all she could to project Han’s memory and not just saying “ben” and then die.” That aspect I like and all. But visually it doesn’t jive for me since Ben/Kylo is scarless. Unless someone “put back” his scar to rearrange it … it doesn’t work. A person can rationalize why he doesn’t have the scar for Reason A or Reason B during that sequence … but a person watching it would catch that.

It’s Reason A…it’s in Kylo’s mind/a vision, so I don’t think it’s a deal-breaker. 😃 In all seriousness, I’m not against someone restoring it if Hal wants to go that route, just seems like a lot of unnecessary work.

Anyway, as I mentioned, I’ve made a few more tweaks since that earlier clip. Now, Leia also says ‘come home’ before Han does, which is wedged in between her ‘Ben…’ and Han’s ‘Hey kid’. I also removed Han’s mention of ‘Kylo Ren is dead…’ since that probably works better if Rey’s already stabbed him. I toyed with a reverb too…may be unnecessary since Kylo actually talks about this convo being a memory but left it in this latest version for effect so you could hear what it sounds like – I think it works either way. Alright, here’s the extended clip, now leading into Kylo throwing the saber (to give you a full sense of the new sequence). Again, just some visuals for consideration:
