Hi Eddie Dean,

FANTASTIC JOB with the TCW-Refocused!!! I am very excited to take over Smudger9 fanedits (specially after he discontinued them). I find your work way superior and more comprehensive. Really, I cannot praise enough your ongoing project!!

Unfortunately, I don’t have much time to follow up your new versions of these edits and provide regular feedback, something I would love to. So, this post is an exception to me.

Review on “Dissent of Umbara v.2.0”: It’s the first time along the viewing of TCW-refocused I notice too many cuts and a rushed pace. The first 30 min of the episode goes too fast. Importantly, the hatred towards general Krell is not smoothly built. I remember when I watched for the first time the Umbara arc 4 years ago. It worked nicely to me and it made me hate this general as much as these clones. This feeling is missing for me in your edit. Especially, I missed the conflict how some clones are willing to follow orders no matter what and how other decide to think independently.

I definitely think this arc would improve vastly in the extended edition you plan to release. I would remove the goofiness and the flying test, the rest I would leave it untouched. It’s probably the best action arc of the whole series.

That’s being said, I want to highlight again what you are building in this project is outstanding and I am loving it! It’s a blessing for any SW fan.

Once I finish the whole series viewing I will leave a proper review in Fanedit.org

Best,

Manu
