Hey everybody. If you haven’t seen the Film noir edit thread, please do so. There’s a great project happening in there. That project involves re-editing the entire movie, changing the story, it’s a true re-imagining. the most interesting aspect is the hard-boiled voice over that Anakin will have. A suggestion was made that some stuff from the novelization be used as some of the narration. This led me to read the book again, and i love loads of stuff that was in there.
I would like to do a very minor re-edit of ROTS, nothing like the Film Noir edit, which I still want to help with, but I would like to add narration for Anakin to the film as it is. I think this could bring out a lot of good stuff that the actors (and the director) couldn’t convey.
Here’s the plan:
*Use ADM ROTS edit as a basis (I consider this the best version available.)
*Change very minor things that annoy me (a little bit of the editing in the Sidious/Windu fight, some bad dialogue, etc.) Nothing big, or anything that would change the storyline at all.
*A New narration would be written using the novelization as its basis. Things would be rephrased into the first person, as if they were Anakin’s thoughts. This will only be where i think it’s needed and/or applicable. This will require a voice over actor, somebody taht does a good Anakin voice, or somebody that can just deliver it well.
Let me know what you guys think, and again, if you havent checked out the star wars film noir thread, please do. It’s gonna blow you all away.
