Glad you’re getting back into the swing of things, Eddie!

Regarding the Siege of Mandalore stuff, I think it would be best to cut it according to what benefits the pacing of the episodes themselves, and don’t base your decisions on Revenge of the Sith.

I do think the idea of 3 episodes is good, because it gives the audience the flexibility to sandwich ROTS into their viewing if they want, or watch each episode back-to-back since it is divided into three clean acts. I know one of the benefits of Refocused is that the runtime for each episode can be however you want it to be, so I think something even more radical, like one big movie, could be a fun option too. I could picture a movie version that starts with a flashback to Ahsoka leaving the order, show her living her life and how she gets involved with Bo-Katan, the Siege of Mandalore, and then bookend it with the Vader epilogue to mirror the flashback at the beginning.

The thing is, I think most people watching Siege of Mandalore edits will probably watch multimedia versions, since they’re apparently so popular, so I would say just take whatever approach suits your viewing tastes. I think there is definitely an appeal to just continuing the format you’ve been going with and do 3 episodes, beginning, middle and end.
