Would be great to somehow extend Ben Solo’s death scene and it’s aftermath.

Another scene that could be extended is the Luke and Leia training scene. There are usable shots from the BTS documentary that could be used. The problem is the camera being visible, I think Snooker had the idea of masking it with a training droid?

Here’s what it the scene would look like if extended
(ignore the opening scene context)

Interesting idea but something about that edit feels a little off, however I do think it could be interesting if we got a couple more visions/flashbacks into the movie but something like that is a pipe dream at this point.

I think I have found the best way to put together the celebration scene, this is just a concept. I kept Jakku while also moving Coruscant to the end feels more fitting to be the last look at victory, I extended the scene slightly using the original sound track.

Adding Coruscant at end like this adds a bit more closure in my opinion.

To chime in on a few things discussed here lately, first all I think Ben’s force ghost is required at the end. I liked the idea of one planet from each trilogy, but the addition of Corellia would be cool since it represents the SW Stories films. However, I am more than willing to have Naboo added even if it messes with the symmetry of one film per “series”.

One last thing I would like to add, it perhaps we could have some variety of ships destroyed over the planets. Presenting four star destroyers in a row falling seems a little plain jane to me. Perhaps someone could add a dreadnought or tie fighters or even resistance ships, maybe even the new starhawk.

I never liked the idea of turning Ajan Kloss into Naboo because it just seems crazy that they would be hiding out from Palpatine on…Palpatine’s home planet. Rebel/Resistance bases have always been on unpopulated planets and I’d prefer to keep it that way.

Work in progress shot!

I’m having a lot of trouble with the chroma key on the Star Destroyer (because the free program I use doesn’t have chroma key.) Does anyone have any suggestions for this?

I could render out my background plate (with moving waterfalls and clouds) and have someone else comp in the destroyer?

I’ve been looking into deleted scenes and such, and something tells me that Disney and Lucasfilm may or may not release the scenes as of right now so controversy and conversations over what the movie could have been are sparked while it’s still fresh in everyone’s minds. They may do it once people may have forgotten about it or something, I don’t know. Regardless, I’m not sure what they’re going to do for this as of now since it seems like they’re starting to distance themselves from the trilogy already.

Have you not heard? The Sequel trilogy is being deCAnoNIsEd.

lol, yeah. What nonsense. Makes me embarrassed for any SW stuff I see on YouTube or anything like that.

If they do, great. But at this point there’s not much to do. And even if they did, it wouldn’t obviously change anything we’d do beforehand.

My stance on revising fan edits.

I don’t believe it, but let’s not derail Hal’s thread and discuss ideas for his edit.

I could be wrong about this but doesn’t the Star Destroyer need to be a model from the old Empire? Why would it be a First Order type of Star Destroyer?

They are all First Order Destroyers. None of the destroyers in this sequence are part of the Sith fleet, just generic First order Destroyers stationed around various planets.

I can give it a try if you like? What program are you using?

It’s been so disappointing to see so many YouTubers covering this trash! Especially those that bitch about the mainstream media. They’re doing exactly what they’ve accused the media of by reporting BS on every channel. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Those Destroyers are all First Order Star Destroyers.
The Sith Fleet (Imperial style) is on Exegol. Those ones that we see in the celebration montage are the result of “People are rising all over the galaxy”.

I’m confused why the First Order would still have a presence at Jakku after Rey and Finn left. It’s even more remote than Tatooine.

Just hopping in here to ask about the stormtrooper saying “Ghouls!” at 19:02 in workprint 2 - is that staying? I honestly think it should be removed. Not only is it an awkward line, but when I first saw it in theatres I thought he was saying “Cool!” Anyone else with me on this one?

Yeah, I thought he was saying “Goals!” When I first watched it. I wonder if someone could just do an alternate line reading that’s more clear.
