Concept for my previous idea:

  1. Open on Rey to establish her as POV character
  2. Random vision of the Star Destroyer crash to establish her power
  3. Partial vision of BB-8’s backstory so that the mystery is in the other direction

I really dig it. Especially the sound effects. I would probably intercut more of the massacre over Poe’s lines like how you did the star destroyer flashback.

Unrelated, here’s my pretty useless pitch for anybody who wants to try. I wanted to know if anybody has the super ability to rotoscope Kylo’s crossblades out of everytime he ignites his saber, and then the moment you actually see them ignite in the film is the shot from the first teaser in the forest that they removed. For people that watch VII for the first time without seeing the trailers, they see the crossblades from the get go and think “oh cool…” but the way it was presented to us in the trailer was this huge thing akin to Maul’s double lightsaber. I thought it’d be cooler, but again it’s an almost pointless edit.
