Keep practicing Fairuz.

It might be an idea to work out a manifesto for your Star Wars edits.

Figure out the bits that work for you in the whole series and why and apply it across the board and see how it comes out.

Thanks for the advice Bingowings.

I'm still working out the details for the whole PT edits.

For TPM these are a few of the ideas I currently have in mind:

  • Make it clearer that the Trade Federation blockade and invasion is a Separatist plot to break away from the Republic (for continuity purposes).
  • Try to insert certain footage from AOTC/ROTS so that we see glimpses of Dooku and maybe even the clones in TPM (also for continuity).
  • Remove all mentions of midichlorians, virgin birth and chosen one.
  • Remove the victory parade at the end.
  • Dub alien characters (Gungans, Neimoidians, Watto etc) & use subtitles for plot advancement (Separatist plot), more sensible comic relief, and strengthen character roles.
  • Strengthen Anakin's character (no pouting, yippies, oops, etc). And he doesn't 'accidentally' destroy the Federation ship.
  • Restore certain deleted scenes.
  • Shorten the pod-race scene.
  • Rearrange the final battle scenes.
  • Improve Maul's death scene. (He doesn't just stand there waiting for Obi Wan to slice him in half).

 

Obviously many of these ideas have already been done in other edits. I just hope to present these ideas from a different perspective.
