Appreciate the thoughts, EddieDean. I don’t think the cost will be too high. I’m working on the Crait battle now. Might remove Luke from this battle entirely, but really like the moment between Luke and Leia and wink to 3PO… not sure how I will proceed yet. The battle will open this particular episode similar to the battle on Hoth.
Even with the above clip, I may go back to put in the cringe force healing. Being close to death is a powerful motivator of change. Maybe almost drowning is enough… The plan was to remove both this Force healing and that of the serpent in the cave. I just don’t like the idea of Force Healing being so easy and Rey is already too powerful. Baby Yoda and Kylo at the end of 9 is already more than enough for me with the healing.
Definitely some decisions to make, not for everyone… But what edit ever is.
