So, recently I’ve went back to this idea (it’s been returning like a boomerang for a while) and I’ve actually listened to the audio drama this week. This time I even took some notes here and there, to know more else what and where to cut/trimm.

For sure, I’ll need to remove all the mentions of the Solo twins. Luckily, most of those lines (or sequences) can be easily cut.
The biggest challenge will be the last dialogue between Leia and Luke, as there’s music in the background so I cannot just cut one line. I’ll try to figure it out.
Although, I’m thinking about using the last scenes from “Dark Empire II”, maybe I can trim them seamlessly, removing the mention of Vima and the NR base destroyed.

I also plan to cut some unnecessary scenes/moments for better pacing (and because sometimes, some protagonists are a bit out of character for me).

I remember there’s one little dialogue which I have to trim, it’s about Han’s friend who introduced him to the smudging underworld - it would contradict too much the evens of “Solo”.

Definitely the biggest challenge for the moment is the opening crawl.
Since it mentions the twins and the Thrawn campaign, I cannot really use it. On the other hand, I’m not sure it can be skipped without affecting the story. And I’m not really tech savvy when it comes to creating some AI dialogues etc. But well, we’ll see.
