Thanks for your reply!

I’m glad I can help (but you’re definitely the pro here, so I trust your judgment more than mine 😄).

Yeah, Basil is probably one of those things you just have to live with, even if you don’t like it (but Star Wars has already taught us that lesson, so it’s not a big deal 😉 ). And don’t get me wrong, you’re already done a fantastic job!

Regarding your question about Sol’s arc: it’s coherent, understandable, and absolutely works. You’ve definitely made Sol a more interesting character than he would be in a pure series format.

With a fan edit of about 2.5 hours, though, this naturally comes at the expense of other characters (like the twins or Qimir). That probably can only be solved with a series edit.

In that sense, your (movie-) edit does exactly what it’s supposed to and wants to do (mission accomplished!)! I’m curious to see what someone who watches the story in your format for the first time thinks 😃
I’ll try to find someone who would want to be my lab rat… lol

Thanks so much for your great work and for sharing it with us!

Thank you! That exchange made me rethink a short scene I cut, which was making the encounter with the twins abrupt… I put back the scene just before when Indara expresses her worries about her padawan, Sol doesn’t seem to understand, and Indara tells him that’s why he doesn’t have a padawan (half joking)… I put it back mainly because it foreshadows Sol’s arc… Maybe he shouldn’t have had a padawan after all!!! 😉 So thank you! If you want the new version 1.2, I’ll send you another link…
