That’s fair! Are you sold on the one movie per season approach? It feels like there’s a natural breakpoint at S01E09, and again at S02E08, if you needed to conclude movies there. That might give you four movies of around ~1h40-2h and capture some of the content that’s relevant to other media (such as Cham Syndulla on Ryloth for TCW and Rebels). I put some analysis on this idea in Acbagel’s Bad Batch thread if you’re interested. You do you though - the show will certainly do well from tightening either way!

Yeah, I’m sticking to one movie person season. 2h50 is pushing it, but its in line with my other edit lengths. I agree that the seasons split in half quite well, however, I don’t feel there is enough quality material in each half to warrant a separate movie. Ryloth, for example, adds very little other than familiar character cameos.
The first half of season 2 was pretty weak, so I can pretty much eliminate all of it other than Crosshair’s introduction. That will allow me to focus on the clone storyline from the second half.
