Yeah, for the people who liked the show at how it actually is story wise, a fanedit like the tiktocker one could be a good shot, sure. But many people disliked the fact that Leia was rescued twice in the same series, Vader let Kenobi escape for no apparent reason in their first battle, Reva tryed to kill Luke with a poor reason, etc. So when the faneditors take this kind of thing in consideration, they aren’t just doing what they wanted to see in the series, they are making something observing the complaints of other fans too.
I think that these edits are more for the fans that didn’t like the show fully, just parts of it (but still want to liked it).
^^^ Right on. Admittedly, this guy’s version presents and feels more like a “director’s extended cut” of a movie - and that’s what I appreciate about it. Pretty much my only (or biggest) personal requirement of a fan-edit is that it doesn’t transform the material into something that it never was -or- was never meant to be. At the end of the day, the source material IS canon (for better or for worse) and I prefer to consume my media as canonically as possible (-even if some of it subjectively sucks).
