Sorry if this has already been addressed, but has anyone considered an edit without Reva? Just a story about Obi-wan rescuing Leia and Vader happening across him?
It would be difficult to do, because Reva drives a lot of the plot - without her, a lot of stuff would happen for no reason (Leia gets kidnapped for no reason, Vader would know things via magic, Obi-Wan would have no sense of urgency throughout most of the plot). She’s also visually present in a lot of scenes that are necessary for the story to progress; it would be really difficult to edit around her and still have anything make sense.
I found in my edit that just cutting a lot of unnecessary scenes makes her character a lot more interesting and palatable; the only things that makes Moses Ingram’s performance seem shonky are some bad dialogue choices and her inability to shout in a threatening way. Once you trim those, the strengths of her performance really shine through; I went from disliking the character to really enjoying her.
