Hmm, it seems like it would be a lot of work. Is the idea to tie Krennic in with Starkiller (Tarkin) Base? I’m just trying to think if there would be another scene that might could work to convey what you’re trying to do without all of the needed VFX.
I don’t absolutely need the scene, but I really like that it sets up Krennic’s position in the story and his antagonism with Tarkin. I’ve moved the RONE material to the Sequel Era and swapped out the Death Star with the Starkiller cannon and the dreadnought / Star Destroyers.
So Hux&Kylo are chasing after Bodhi, not the Skywalker map. When Hux finds out Bodhi is on Jedha, he sends the Dreadnought to pull a Death Star strike on it. Which leads to this scene where Tarkin says they are giving one of Krennic’s weapons a field test and it better not screw up.
I could build some of this info into the DS viewing room bits before & after where Jedha gets shot (in my version they’re offsite watching a telemetry feed from the Dreadnought making the attack, not onboard the DS), but it would be nice to have this extra scene to let that breath a little. Not a decision I’m making today but getting closer to having to make a choice on it.
Thanks!
