HELP WANTED: SEQUEL TRILOGY FAN CUTS- Nindroid 243

HELP WANTED- For Sequel Trilogy Fan Cuts
Hello There, I am a friendly fellow Star Wars Fan, who loves The Star Wars Sequel Trilogy, but my other close friends and subscribers, (Yes I have a Youtube Channel) really dislike the trilogy, or at least The Last Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker, so with me as an editor, I’m trying to edit the whole trilogy as cohesive as possible, with fixing what fans have problems with, and also to just better streach out the story. If anyone is interested in helping me with these fan cuts, it would be a huge help, such as new VFX Shots and Photoshop edits of new scenes. My goal for this huge project is to put something out there that the Sequel Trilogy haters and Sequel Trilogy Lovers will both like. (Or at least think it’s fine) Thank you. PM if interested.

I wouldn’t let other people tell you what to think about the movies. Trying to please everyone is how TROS wound up being what it is. YouTube is full of truly mindless takes from people who like to be angry all the time (and/or make money off of it).

Sure, “mindless takes,” the thousands of people who were upset by these movies and their awful decisions are mindless. I think it’s funny how all of these “mindless takes” rake in thousands and millions of views while the videos defending them get substantially less and have massive dislike ratios. But as much as I disagree with your bad opinion, you are correct about the fan editing segment. Fan editing is limited and there’s only so much you can really do, you are making some big requests that are probably not going to be cheap in all honesty.

I know it won’t be easy and will not be cheap, that’s why I’m putting all this money into something I am passionate about, these cuts will improve the overall story, that’s my goal

Most of your ideas here are very radical and would require substantially altering the plot and character arcs of the trilogy. Plus, some of them just seem like trying to tie-in to other material in ways that make little sense: why would Pryde be Thrawn? And how? Has he painted his face? Does he still get exploded out of a window? Etc. I’d carefully consider exactly what each of your planned changes would gain/lose. If Luke arrives on Crait in person, how does he survive? Is he just invincible? If Luke’s invincible, how is he dead in the next movie? As is endlessly demonstrated in HAL’s Ascendant thread, fanediting often comes down to trying to do as much as you can with only small tweaks - even then, tiny edits can have undesirable implications and repercussions for the rest of the movie.

Why are you calling Neverar “Great Date”?

1. No one tells me what to think about the movies, I am just trying to improve the story that’s been presented to us, so those fans who dislike them, may think of them a bit differently.
2. That was a Spelling Error of (Great Date) I thought it was in the user name, my bad
3. Character Arcs are being alternated, especially Finn’s Arc. I want Finn to be more important because many people feel like he needed to be as big as a character in the later two movies, like how he was in Force Awakens, and moving The Finn and Phasma fight till then makes that a bit better.
4. General Pryde to Thrawn is a friend of mine’s personal request that will be presented in a good way, with some help of SW Rebels, There’s going to be more context to where he’s been in the film.
5. Luke gets to Craite and duels against Kylo, to then later being killed by Ren. This further helps Kylo grow as a much more intimating threat to The Resistance.
6. I know fanediting often comes down to tiny edits, but the overall story could be alternated as well and I will not be ruining any of the three movies with these edits.
