Had an idea for a small tweak, which I implemented in my editor. I swapped two R2-D2 sound effects during the scene where Luke meets Obi-Wan, so that he now responds to Obi-Wan saying he never owned a droid with a “sad beep.”
This is brilliant.
This one is just an idea, and not sure how I feel about it.
Seems like it’d be a little cleaner from a continuity perspective for Luke to have a different response when Ben tells him his father was a Jedi who fought in the war. Luke repeats the lie from Owen about him just being a navigator on a freighter.
Instead, I’d think Luke ought to react with something like “wow my dad WAS that Skywalker.”
So what about his first line of the scene being “No, my father wasn’t the one who fought in the war, he was a navigator on a spice freighter.”
I never had the nerve to make the final cut.
I kinda have a feeling that Imperial education wouldn’t be focusing on the Jedi too much, though. Somebody like Anakin Skywalker would get a tiny footnote, at most. Luke already is confused about the Force alone, after all.
Granted, if the Empire were strategically smart about this detail, they would have Imperial propaganda say that Anakin was the only Jedi who didn’t turn on Palpatine and died protecting him from the assassination attempt that left Palpatine “scarred and deformed”.
EDIT: The most likely canon answer, though, is that the Empire says Darth Vader killed Anakin Skywalker since we know they say he died during Order 66 in canon. So my first point still stands.

What a great small change!
I was wondering if anyone would be interested in creating two boxsets for me, one to hold my own fan edits of the Prequels along with an edit of Star Wars Episode II.V The Clone Wars and another to hold my own fan edits of the original trilogy.I also have my own custom artwork a friend created for me. I was wondering if I could send them to someone and perhaps they would be able to create custom boxsets using my own custom artwork if possible, if anyone could help me with this I would greatly appreciate it.
Hi, Could you send me the drive link? Thanks!
I wish there was your cut of Return of the Jedi but with Hayden as Anakin rather than Sebastain Shaw. I liked the original but having Hayden helps jump you into Ahsoka series when Anakin shows back up without feeling aliened. Otherwise, I love all the changes you made especially to Boba Fett. I always wonder why he sounded like a Clone, when in the prequels Jango asks for Boba to be unaltered. Would that not make more sense for him sound different and changing his voice makes no sense any way. A lot of the extra CGI stuff added to the originals are dumb as well. I do like special edition aesthetically though. Some of the shots in OT look too dated in Despecialized, while in Special Edition look gorgeous. I loved what you did with the Emperor in Empire as that is like the best of both worlds. Of course, when it comes to Return of the Jedi’s ending, I like the long shots of the prequels to tie it altogether, but I prefer Yub Nub as song. Yub Nub song is very Star Wars, don’t know why they removed it from the Special Edition but just didn’t have a longer version of Yub Nub made for the Special Edition.
Could I please kindly have a PM for this version? I would love to watch it, great work and thank you so much!
