I’ve now edited together the final battle. I’ve cut Grogu and the Majordomo (which will allow me to completely remove the dreaded vespa chase) and it works really well. The audio is done except for the two music transitions into and out of the sequence, which I will re-score later.

Here is the link if you want to view it.

Just watched the final battle edit and it looks great. My only comment would be that the conversation in the first scene with Cad Bane, the mayor, and the head of the pyke syndicate jars slightly without the scene of Cad Bane visiting Freetown, particularly the line from the mayor “did you convince the marshall to stay neutral”. If you cut that line and just had the Mayor responding to Cad Bane’s line “you won’t have to worry about Freetown” with “good I want this over as soon as possible” it removes some of the awkwardness of never seeing the “convincing” that occurs between Bane and Vanth and leaves a bit of mystery ready for the reveal that Cad Bane had shot the Marshall for when he’s talking with Boba Fett later. Just a thought.

Great idea, I’ll take a look at that.

I’ve finally got a completed first cut done with nearly all of the sound transitions completed. It weighs in at 2h 55mins, which isn’t too bad considering the work it has to do!.

Its become obvious that this edit is actually Mando Ep3, so I’ll present it as such. The title I’ve gone with is “A New Path” because Mando, Grogu and Boba all choose unexpected directions - Mando leaves the covert, Grogu leaves the Jedi and Boba leaves Bounty Hunting. The logo colour I’ve chosen is “Boba green” to acknowledge that its all from the Book of Boba.

This probably means getting rid of the opening scene of Boba killing Bib and instead opening with Mando. I’ll then cut to Boba in his Bacta tank and the flashbacks will be the story of his survival and rise, with the final flashback showing him taking Jabba’s throne.

I’ll need to watch the cut again in full, but if anyone is interested in seeing the current cut I’ll be able to provide a link next week. PM me.
