This is very belated, but I feel like I meant to ask about how I implemented flashbacks in my fan edit of ‘Attack of the Clones.’

Before the scene of Anakin telling Padme about dreaming of his mother, I showed a scene of him winning the Podrace and thus his freedom, and then a scene of him saying goodbye to his mother.

Before the scene of Dooku interrogating Obi-Wan, I showed the scene of Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon dueling Maul. However, I think I went too far in showing Anakin destroying the Trade Federation ship, especially considering that this flashback is supposed to be from Obi-Wan’s point of view.

All in all, do these flashback ideas work, more or less?

If not, how can I use flashbacks in AOTC in a way that’s efficient?
