I just finished watching though the workprint. A/V-wise, I found no noticeable issues.

Overall:

  • This film NEEDS a color correction to remove the ugly blue overtones.
  • Try to create some more shots of ships approaching/leaving planets in space to help assist the pacing.

Beginning Chase:

  • Get Kauld outta there
  • Smooth out the Falcon breaking through the ice wall, it seems like Chewie’s roar cut out too early

Passana:

  • PLEASE remove “They fly now?!”
  • Remove Finn’s secret for Rey that is never resolved (I personally think it is that he knows she’s a Palpatine. That would explain his “You have no idea what she’s going through… I do and so does Leia” comment on Endor. Maybe if this can be made clearer it would make more sense.
  • Remove Kylo’s TIE exploding, how would he survive that?!
  • I know this was not in the workprint, but I would strongly suggest keeping Rey’s force lightening blue and not yellow
  • If possible, try to create a shot of the heroes escaping Passana on Ochie’s ship. It is very abrupt how the next scene is just them randomly in space somehwere when there was a swarm of TIEs

Kijimi:

  • When Rey tells Finn about her vision, maybe remove the build of the louder music, it might work better as a quiet moment between them
  • Remove D-0’s “Sad.” during C-3P0’s speech, let it be emotional and not humerous
  • Remove mention of Finn’s secret during the almost execution if being removed
  • Remove Kylo saying “You are a Palpatine.” when telling Rey who she is

Endor:

  • Cut out Finn during the fight and have him only watch Rey fly off in Kylo’s TIE

Anch-To:

  • Try to tone down how blue Luke looks and use Jonh’s hair fix
  • Remove Rey’s “Two were made.” line as we know this and we don’t need extra exposition… sigh

Ending:

  • Add Ben’s ghost
