Oooh, very curious about the changes coming to movie 5!
Made a ton of progress on everything over the past 24 hours. Still planning to post outlines by the weekend, but I now have my re-updated Book 5 (I promise, this is the last time aside from any bug fixes) in the beta stage and Book 6 fully organized into a ~2 hour film and in the Alpha stage. The complexity of all this also requires me to get the right scenes for Book 7 laid out too, so I have worked in there and am getting close to the right runtime (but the scenes are not entirely organized and still quite out of order) so I’ll say that’s in pre-alpha.
To give a brief summary, I am looking at going back to the base structure of Book 5 being like the 2023 “Groguless mines” release, but don’t worry! Boba will still get his dues, I’m not doing the “cut BoBF and make it a 6-movie saga” idea I had tossed around previously. I am confident that I have a solid plan in place to pace out Boba’s rule through Books 6 AND 7, plus the Dr. Pershing story fully integrated.
I have Grogu’s reunion in a good place at the end of Book 6, using a combination of Dazman’s initial vfx efforts (thank you so much for being willing to share your behind the scenes files, huge credit to you for all the groundwork you laid here) plus some new scene restructuring and my own personal touches. This reunion will happen on Ossus at Luke’s academy, as I have successfully split up Din’s visits into 2 entirely unique scenes. Can’t wait to share more! The passion is definitely back and I’m having a lot of fun staying up into the wee hours of the morning working on this.
Though… I am also really excited to work on the Bad Batch one day. After that, we shall see. I do want to tackle The Boys at some point… Big fan of that series and I think it’s begging for an acbagel movie saga too, but I’ll wait for the new season to conclude this summer.
