Not a bad idea, but Dark Empire comic book series was better with Papa Palpatine returning as a clone compared to this mess of an unintradesting take of this movie.
This kid unironically uses “intradesting” in nearly all of his posts. Cringe.
Hal, I noticed you didn’t ask for translations of “Come home”. Did you decide against using that Leia line for whatever reason?
Nah, I know where there’s a corresponding line in TFA that I can look at the subtitles for, where Han says the same thing in similar context.
Probably… would have been easier to include it on the list, but I could have done fine with that line if I wasn’t asking for translations.
I still have not yet had the chance to mock up that line to see how it plays, but plan to. Been hectic around here and my nights have not afforded me computer time. 😕
I know I’ve made some very poor decisions recently.
Ok, that’s fine! I think the only thing it was missing according to everyone else was some nice reverb. I would have included that in my own test but my editing software doesn’t let me directly modify a single audio channel.
Would anyone with access to the German language dub of TROS send me a PM? Need two snippets from it.

How’s this for a “Final lesson” out of Mark’s AI voice?

Here’s another one:

That’s starting to sound more like old man Luke now. 😃

Hard to say out of context but I’ll play with them when I’m able!

Any chance of having the delivery be slower, more solemn? Sounds more like a quick table read rather than the dramatic, paced delivery he gives in the scene itself.

This is the best I could come up with:

Hmm, that might actually sound okay! I’ll play with it when I am able.

For my money, I like the first one a lot!
I have been thinking about the possibilities of AI voices. Given that Finn has the least punctuated character arc, I was thinking if we can restore the ongoing gag of Finn saying to Rey he needs to tell her something and have an AI voice of Daisy pay it off at the end of the movie.
I was thinking either at the end, when they’re looking for each other during the celebration at Ajan Kloss or when the trio is hugging and Finn starts crying. Maybe have Daisy’s voice echo in Finn’s head saying something like “Finn. You don’t need to tell me. I can feel it in you.”
One thing I would like to see is Anakin speaking to Leia as she reaches out to Ben. In the Junior Novelization he talks to her and she finally forgives him. It would be nice to have him more present in this Saga Finale.

That’d be sublime at the script level. The scene where they reunite works without dialogue, but it could conceivably work as the scene fades
to black. It ought to be a low voice, almost a whisper. The music could be changed to accommodate, and the length of time spent in black adjusted (if not the length of the whole shot), if need be.
I love the idea, but as with any of these AI ideas, it will really depend how it happens to be able to come together.
Still waiting on the chance to try mixing the Luke line, by the way.

Well I couldn’t sleep, so here’s 6 options to play with when you have a chance: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1QHljuzH7CkjR0j89d_ViDSkIdYJUR7d4?usp=sharing

I really LOVE that second one!
Also, it’s funny that we’ve gotten to a point with this edit that we’re adding stuff back in now. lmao
Thank goodness for stilted dialogue delivery! Those sound pretty good.

It just begs the question why Finn is so defensive about him being Force sensitive. You’re telling me that he doesn’t want to tell Poe that before they’re (presumably) about to die? Isn’t this something that he should be proud of?
It just gives the impression that he’s got a crush on Rey that he doesn’t want to admit to throughout the entire film.
Yeah, I’d suggest not adding that plot-line back in.
The Star Wars Saga:
I · II · III · IV · V · VI · VII · VIII · IX | Rogue One · Solo
What was first just a dream has become a frightening reality…
I understand how it could be potentially annoying and misconstrued as a love declaration, however I do feel that it isn’t until Finn talks to Jannah about the Force that any sort of characterization for Finn kicks in and that’s deep into the second act of the movie. By having this running gag I think at least he has something and the reveal of his believe in the Force to Jannah isn’t as out of the blue.
Also by having Rey’s force whisper to him at the end of the movie, there is a potentially neat full circle moment as it harkens back to the change made in TLJ when Finn wakes up by hearing Rey. Just my two cents.
I’d say Finn’s arc in TROS is moreso about learning to fight for the galaxy at large - particular ex-troopers - and not just for the Resistance. He charges into battle with ex-Stormtroopers that aren’t technically a part of the actual Resistance.
A bit of a weak arc, sure, but imo it’s better than muddying the waters by being uncharacteristically ashamed of his Force-sensitivity.
What I like about this project is it streamlines a lot of the crap that JJ and Terrio threw in here for no real reason so people can at least try to understand the basic story.
Thinking about how the “I have something to tell you” plot is really never resolved or addressed beyond Finn having a feeling is honestly embarrassing. Embarrassing that it was something left in a blockbuster film.

I agree that that’s his character arc once he meets Jannah. But there is literally nothing for the audience to chew on from him as a character before that. Also, that particular struggle is never really set up early in the film.
At the end of the day however, the movie will always end up with him being Force sensitive and that does have the potential to have some through-line across the film. I feel that if there’s anyway to add back those bits and pay it off with AI, it will not only strengthen the Force sensitivity storyline so it’s set up from the beginning but also it will give him something to have in the first half of the movie.
As it stands he’s the only one on the trio that has nothing going on until they reach Kef Bir. Even Poe has the fact that he does shifty stuff planted since Passana, which eventually leads to Kijimi.
Again, I understand completely why this is not a popular idea but I personally feel that it’s worth exploring.
At the end of the day, I still think it’s a good asset to have crafted, regardless of whether or not it’ll be used in this particular edit. In the context of the upcoming Rey-centric movie that may or may not have Finn in it, I feel like it could be something that other fan editors could use in their own version of TROS that would maybe make things a bit more cohesive with the canon.
