An unexpected choice of music for the trailer - and definitely something different. Very nicely done trailer 👍

Thank you! I thought I’d rather just lean in and go full AMV rather than trying to make a traditional movie trailer. It seemed more fitting for this project.

Update the OP with some examples of my work in this edit.

PM’s sent!

Hello again,

as always: MANY THANKS FOR YOUR AWESOME WORK!
I thought about your craft after watching the Snyder Cut of Justice League a while ago.
Loved that one too.

I just finished v3.0 I got around the 15/05/2021.
You put the star wars goof back in it I see 😄

I really enjoyed it.
Version 2.0 is still the purest Rey focused journey I would show my brother who gave up after watching Episode VII in French at the theatre.
If you do a sub’ file, I’d try to cut it and translate it into French so it fits the 2.0!
AND force him to watch it… when the variants situation settles and we can simply cross borders again.

Keep on playing with your cut. I read somewhere that an art piece is finished only when you are fed up with it.
There are at least three layers of paint on the Mona Lisa, Leonardo had fun with it all his life.
That’s why it’s so looked after.

Please don’t be fed up until you have a subtitle file 😛

Thank you thank you!

I’m glad you enjoyed it, Jul! Can’t promise subtitles will be coming any time soon, but I definitely won’t give up on this project until those are done.

It wasn’t until I found this forum that I realized so many people HATE that “They fly now” joke. I will never understand it. lol.

Because the Empire, Republic, and CIS have all had jettroopers and it would be weird if the FO didn’t.

Well, the audience doesn’t necessarily know that as it was never depicted in the mainline Skywalker films, and certainly not the sequel trilogy. Also, none of the characters save Chewie and the droids lived through any of those wars, and C-3PO had his memory wiped after ROtS.

I do get where you’re coming from! But I think sometimes the moment has to come first, even at the expense of those of us who’ve spent their lives reading Wookiepedia.

If we really want, we can headcanon Chewie’s line just before it to be “Ah shit, not again!”

I really never had a problem with Hux being made a farce of, or “they fly now” (yes it’s corny, but that’s Star Wars, right?)

It wasn’t until I found this forum that I realized so many people HATE that “They fly now” joke. I will never understand it. lol.

I think the fact that it was in the first clip they released from the film didn’t help! People were kinda set to hate this thing regardless, and the joke became a bit of a pre-emptive flashpoint for that.

That’s exactly it, the joke was just the first really goofy bit of the film people saw so it devolved into vicious mockery in the comments. In all fairness it is a pretty brainless line.
