I quite agree, I have decided to keep the “knights of Ren” as an allusion to the fact that it may be Luke’s other ex-padawan who have decided to follow Ben. I kept the name Darth Kylo Ren only because it would have been more difficult to edit certain dialogues.

Anyway, I post you here the first version of the opening crawl of this project: https://youtu.be/AnzQltVvuTA . It is the first version because I think I will remove the words “Episode VII”, this is because I am planning to do a complete fan-edit of the whole saga and I still don’t know how many episodes it will be composed of.

I like the idea of ​​creating a new fan-canon (taking inspiration in part from Legends and in part from the new canon, but still making something new and more consistent with itself).
In order here are the things I was thinking about (these are just rough ideas, if I ever start this project after finishing my edits of the sequel trilogy then I’ll open a post dedicated to this new editing project):

  • Maul and Grievous are the same person.
  • Dooku is present (as a jedi) already before episode II.
  • Jar Jar has fewer parts, Gungans in general will be more marginal.
  • In The Phantom Menace it will be less obvious that Sidious and Palpatine are the same person.
  • There is no rule of two.
  • Yoda is not 900 years old (this is useful to me because I am considering the idea that a sort of Episode 0 could be made using parts of “The Mandalorian” to tell the origins of Yoda and the fall of Darth Plagueis, it is just a idea for the moment).
  • In Return of the Jedi I would like Deathstar II to destroy an entire system during the final battle, this would be the reason why the new republic has made so much effort to reorganize its army.
  • Darth Maul is not featured in Solo’s film (perhaps Vader could be in his place).
  • I like the figure of Ahsoka but I don’t like it when it’s too obvious that a character hasn’t been thought of from the beginning, her non-presence in the prequel trilogy is almost “annoying” and that’s why I think IF it will appear in my saga- edit will be in hypothetical Episode 0.

That’s all for now, if you have any other ideas let me know, I’m open to everything … If I start this project I think I’ll call it The Veil of the Force, or simply The Veil. But for now i will focus only to my sequel edit 😃
