Haven’t heard anything about usable audio from the Lego Skywalker Saga yet.
After working on some things for Spence’s edit, I went back and made a rough interpretation of the Force bond duel, I did shorten the scene slightly, but I tried to keep most of the scene intact, but with new dialogue and visions to help establish Rey’s fear of losing her friends. I used the theatrical as a basis, but a final version would use Ascendant. Also, the visions themselves are really rough, and are more placeholders than anything. I kind of just wanted to see if this idea would work.
Personally, I think I prefer Spence’s approach. I sat down and watched the first 30 minutes of ESB:R tonight, and I couldn’t help but compare the filmmaking language between that and TROS. I definitely am a proponent of the use of some visions when it comes to ST ideas, but I do think the less flashbacks/visions are used as a storytelling crutch, the better it would be for the movie.
