After years of contemplation and hundreds of Anakin-like nightmares, I have decided on a way I can edit the prequels into a fashion that I and other fan's will be happy with.
Star Wars: The Sith Reborn will be a 90 minute cut of Revenge of the Sith designed to be the beginning of the Star Wars Saga, I decided to do this because, the other 2 movies are bloated with filler which no matter how edited it is, does NOT feel like or need to be included into the mythology of Star Wars
I played around with a 3-in-1 edit, but trying to combine 3 movies with completely different stories, appearances and style is near impossible and is very disorientating for the viewer. Revenge of the Sith can match the Original Trilogy in tone, pacing and story if edited right.
Major Changes:
. A new crawl will be added, discussing the Clone Wars and the Jedi's alliance with the Republic.
. This movie will be colour-corrected in order to make it look like a movie made in the mid 70's.
. Footage from Attack of the Clones will be used for a couple of flashbacks, one focused on Anakin's relationship with Padme before the war and another on his mother's death on Tantooine. These scenes will take us away from Coruscant for a while whilst the film gives us a good insight on Anakin's life.
. Any obvious references to Episode I & II are cut. E.g. the mentioning of Qui-Gon is cut, this can now make Obi Wan, Yoda's former apprentice. Count Dooku will also be cut from the one scene he is in in this movie.
. Padme will survive beyond The Clone Wars, the twins will also remain anonymous in these films since I cringe every time i hear their names declared by Padme.
. Vader and Anakin will seem like separate people in this edit because this makes Anakin's transformation less degrading and can work with the idea in the OT that Anakin no longer was himself when he turned to the Darkside.
. Sidious' one apperance is cut. Palpatine's only alter ego is The Emperor and he fully transforms into him when he reveals himself to Anakin and Mace Windu.
.Mace's saber is green, it only appears once and that is when it is held to Palpy's throat. Yes, Palpatine vs the Jedi is cut, this will display Palpatine as a victim of an attack by Mace Windu and show that Mace's intentions of personally killing Palpatine our clear.
. The movie will be thoroughly rearranged and cut to maintain a quick pacing and to not bore the viewer with depressing political drama.
I apologize for my butchering of the English language, I am not good at wording my thoughts :)
