Are you planning on doing something with Chewie’s death fake-out, Acbagel?
Not sure what you mean by “doing something” with it, but in my edit I have rearranged the scene order to make the reveal more impactful. Also, the main reason this plot line irks people is because there were so many fake outs in the film (C3P0, Chewie, Rey) that it was just annoying. In my edit, the C3P0 and Rey fake outs are removed so now it is only Chewie’s as a surprise.
I imagine this will require a metric fuckton of new VFX and/or newly shot footage to make this reconstructed narrative work entirely in its favour. 😃
Well, it was a ton of work, but I do have a released workprint available to view. I’ll be releasing a new latest version very soon though, and while some VFX aren’t 100% finished and will be improved in the future, all of what you read in the changelist is implemented in a watchable form.
