I like the idea of adding connecting shots like that, but I think the transition with the wayfinder works really well as is.
Something I suggested earlier in this thread:
List of space/ships shots that could hopefully be made by someone with WAY more skills than me:
- Space shot of Ochi’s ship approaching Kimji
- Shot of Rey in Ren’s TIE leaving Endor
- Shot of Rey in Ren’s TIE approaching Anch-To
- Shot of the Falcon leaving Endor and approaching Ajan Kloss
- Rey taking Luke’s X-Wing and leaving Anch-To in space
- A tease of Vader’s TIE leaving Endor
- The Falcon in space approaching Tatooine
Those would be really cool! Maybe even adding a few “ship landing” shots?
- Kylo landing on Exegol
- Falcon landing on Pasaana
- Ochi’s ship landing on Kijimi
- Kylo landing on Kijimi
I saw a review that pointed out how the rushed pacing isn’t helped by the lack of landings in the film - the ship approaches a planet, and the characters are immediately walking around in the next shot, halfway to their goal. Now I can’t unsee it.
