Removed a few more bits. I went through the sound editing and silenced out Han’s line: “Girl knows her stuff.” during the Starkiller base climax. Another tiny detail which lessens Rey’s “Mary Sue” problem just a teensy bit more.
I also took out some more shots of the
Starkiller base X-wing battle, and I think my approach now will be to place nearly all of the focus on the ground level (a.k.a. Rey, Finn, Han, and Chewie), and make the X-wing battle as close to insignificant as possible. I’ll still have Poe’s ship blow the planet up (sans Poe, however). It’s just that most of the X-wing battle will be removed, only showing up when absolutely necessary.
