Exceeded download quota. 😭😭😭

Thanks for the PM Hal. I’ll watch as soon as I can download it…

If you have a Google Drive, “copy” this to your Drive, then copy it again within your Drive, and then you should be able to download.

I would adore any good new shots of ships heading toward planets, lol.

Any shots that can be added showing ships in space heading towards or away from planets would be great. I don’t think there are really any shots like that and they are abundant in the PT and OT.

Chewie’s roar as they head to the ice wall hasn’t been touched; it was like that.

Oh okay, it still feels like it needs something… maybe some other feedback here would be good.

I can try to remove “they fly now,” lol.

Thank you lol

I don’t plan to remove Kylo’s exploding TIE. I’d have to gut the whole sequence, and that won’t help the film’s pacing. These Force users just sort of routinely defy reality.

Not the whole sequence, just the 2 seconds at the end of the shot where it goes up in a ball of flames.

That’s a good point about the heroes leaving Pasaana. If that ship can be seen leaving the planet and maybe entering hyperspace, that’d be cool.

Looking at you poppasketti 😉

Nice idea, i’ll play with quieting the music as Rey tells Finn about her vision.

Glad you’re considering, this movie needs some slower quiet moments.

I’m not going to remove DO’s “sad” or “happy.” 😦 😃

Not all, just the one during 3P0’s speech.

I worry that if I remove the line “You are a Palpatine,” it might not be clear. He’s speaking through the helmet and can be hard to hear. I like the dialogue on paper better without the line, though.

“You have his power, you’re his granddaughter” Rey reacts stunned. Then Kylo talks about their bond and lineage. I feel like it flows better if the audience feels confused and scared like Rey.

The line “two were made” harkens back to Lando stating as much earlier in the movie. It doesn’t bother me, but I’m sure it could be removed easily if it bothers most people.

The line just feels redundant.

Any thoughts about making the lightsaber duel uninterrupted?

When Kylo is telling Rey about her parents, there’s a shot of Ochi’s ship flying away from Jakku. Could just reuse that to imply the heroes’ escape.

I haven’t seen or tried to get the workprint yet… currently at work lol but just from a real quick looksie at the forum… this was kind of what I was thinking… possibly mirroring or changing the footage in some to differentiate it from TFA… Poppa can make miracles happen lol, if he isn’t too busy!

Real quick, here’s a test of removing the Palpatine line: https://vimeo.com/429722548

It’s more affective, I think the camera needs to stay a little longer on Kylo before cutting to Rey’s reaction.

Every frame of the Kylo shot is still there, btw.

Is it possible to give Boolio perhaps a different voice or alien dialect and subtitles?

I think it just cuts too abrumply after “you’re his granddaughter”. Maybe push his dialogue back a bit?

I don’t know about Finn. There will be some residual Force-implication for him regardless, so I’m inclined to leave his “secret” as is. Maybe something to chew on after leaving the theater.

I wonder if its possible to add some additional hints at Finn’s force sensitivity felt weird as it is being such a small tidbit

I hope theres a way to get rid of Babu Frik’s hella annoying voice.

^ My read on Luke’s comment about “Leia knew it, too” is that Luke MUST have learned about this only after he had died. Leia must have known, then told Luke, who then displays this knowledge to Rey while saying “Leia knew too.” TLJ Luke just does not seem to be in on this secret. Even so, I don’t see a good way to remove it unless you’re going to go whole hog and remove Rey Palpatine altogether.

I can boost the audio after the chess scene. I assume you mean the, “I’m kidding!” and subsequent bickering? I wanted it to feel like it’s coming from a few rooms away and not that audible, but enough to sell that it was happening onboard while Rey was getting off the ship.

And I like Boolio! lol
Voiced by Mark Hamill, if you didn’t know.

EDIT: And I like Babu Frik. But I removed his pop-up during the battle, since Kijimi isn’t destroyed and there’s no need to show us he didn’t get blowed up.

FUN FACT: Babu Frik is voiced by the same actress who played Moaning Myrtle in Harry Potter, Shirley Henderson.

Also, I know that I asked you if you would do another version of your edit if the deleted scenes eventually came out, but since you said you wouldn’t do a V2, does that kill any chances of doing another edit if the deleted scenes do come out later on, Hal?

Unfortunately that’s a big if.

Cheers Hal, I’m still having internet issues so I drove to my mum’s to download it. About to start… very excited!

Just finished the workprint I think you should also include the front angle of Wicket. plz!

I just watched the workprint, and I have a lot of thoughts. I don’t have time to list all of them here, but overall I liked your edit. There aren’t many edits (only 2 minutes of footage was cut), but the changes that are there really improve the movie. Once this edit is done, I think the 9000 edits will be my definitive version of the saga.

I’m not sure the expression on Wicket’s face might be too indicative of “oh boy just wait until he catches up with the main characters.” I think less is more here.

You might need to download the workprint rather than play it in the browser.

And all I meant was that I hope to get enough done for V1 not to need to come back for a V2, and close this off mentally and set it down. But if there’s something like new deleted scenes, you bet I’ll do one!
