Hi, I’ve been wanting to do a fan edit for a long time and I’ve finally got the chance to do that. My edit to basically be a prologue to the OT or the first in a 4 part trilogy (If that makes any sense). I want it share the feeling of the OT but can stand alone as a single movie.
The first 30 minutes will be a highly condensed combination of TPM and AOTC to pretty much set up the Clone Wars and a few character origins. This edit will remove allot of characters as well like C-3PO, Jango Fett, Chewbacca an Jabba the Hutt. Count Dooku will take center stage as the main villan for this episode only as a shelf holder for Anakin.
TPM- This part will only be a very short version of the battle of Naboo, Yoda talking to Obi Wan and the funeral scene
AOTC- This has been heavily rearranged so it is just Obi Wan tracking down Dooku and being rescued by the new Clone army after being captured, Anakin takes the backseat in this part and just builds a relationship with Padme
ROTS- the beginning of ROTS will be readjusted to make it link to the end of AOTC but the content of the episode wont change that much. Padme is in the early stages of pregnancy in ROTS and gives birth after the Rise of Vader (meaning she survives after what happens on Mustafar)
I’m still debating on how ROTS should end but some opinions would be appreciated. I never know, this edit could fail or take longer than usual due to my lacking of editing skills but I hope everything goes well.
