That b roll footage has massive potential. Most of my favorite parts of v1 were the bits that improved the pacing, which in my opinion is the worst of the theatrical cuts many issues. The little bits added with d-0, the crew on the falcon at the end, and the shuffled order of scenes at the beginning, added sooo much to the pace. I think some of the passana and resistance base bits here could be very useful in particular for smoothing out those respective sections.

Edit:
Oh, and this is just a nitpick suggestion, but it’s always irked me that during the big resistance pep talk at the end, it doesn’t cut to rose when they mention that “some of us have lost family” or whatever they say. I always thought that would be a tasteful acknowledgement of paiges sacrifice.
