Here’s another WIP - This time it’s the Battle of Endor: https://youtu.be/wUgpMpD3wL0

I never liked how the Death Star Attack flowed in Return of the Jedi. As soon as the “Attack Commences” we hard cut to Palpatine’s shocking demise. That scene is quite slow and completely stalls the momentum of the attack sequence. The hard cut back to the Death Star surface is equally jarring.

This recut is an attempt keep the momentum moving in the first phase of the attack by inserting a bridge scene composed of deleted shots of Moff Jerjerrod into the spot where the Palpatine scene originally was.

Only one deleted shot has been fully restored - The final Mon Cal Pilot shot - the other shots will be restored at a later date. Thanks again to “Phase3” for all of his help on the shot restorations.

Lemme know what y’all think and Enjoy the Edit!
