Just watched this edit and it does a great job to “accentuate the positive, eliminate the negative.”
The flow and pacing are much improved over the series, the little fx additions and tweaks are cool, and even the characters become way more likable (sulky Sabine and bored Ahsoka are gone, we now have a far more charismatic pairing at the heart of the film). The series did feature some great money shots with epic vistas and grand fly bys of spacecraft and star whales, and by keeping them in and removing much of the filler it makes this edit feel a good deal ‘bigger’ and more cinematic.
Definitely worth a watch!
