I have a few ideas in mind my self and I would like to encourage some ideas here for fleshing out the important moments of The PT for insertion as flash back story across the OT.
Your idea must include where it goes in the OT footage and what scene / scenes you use from the PT.
And any subsequent alterations made to either the scenes present or later on in the film because of the added story element.
Here is an example.
Bens Hut in Star Wars A New Hope
Luke Mentors Luke about his Father and talks about the light sabre.
After the scene is finished it would cut to an edited version of the Duel with Qui-gon & Obi-wan vs Maul and No Anakin.
Qui-gon Dies and Obi-wan defeats Maul (Edited to be more like the OT)
The scene will end with Qui-gon asking Obi-wan that he "train the Boy"
Resume Footage
I'll single out a few that I think are perhaps important and rough placement
Birth of Siblings Luke (named) Leia (unamed) ESB there is another Ben Delievering Luke to the Lars Homestead ESB there is another Obiwan Talking to Anakin on Mustafa ESB Falcon Jumps away Obi-wan Defeating Anakin on Mustafa ESB Falcom Jumps away Anakin and Obi-wan rowing over Palpatine ANH After / nefore Destruction of alderan Anakin trying to save Palpatine Mace Windu killed ROTJ ? Anakin on the Operating Table becoming Vader ROTJ Luke captured Anakin talking with Sideous about Dart PLaguiues. ROTJ
I am not very fond of the PT but I am trying to find a use for this back story and if possible make something for fun at the moment.
In Star Wars (A New Hope( I Plan to try to show scenes with Obi-wan and Anakin This will be from TPM and ATOC no little boy anakin will be seen,
In ESB it will be a middle grpund but a focus on the siblings will be made at the end we will focus more on Anakin and his defeat at the Hands of Obiwan
In ROTJ this theme will carry on Focusing on Ankin but regressing backwards until Lukes Capture when it will reveal Anakins Robotic Modification operating scene.
ROTJ will open with the scene with Mace Windu and the Emperor and Anakin trying to intervene. But Bookended with Vader in his Meditation Chamber / or deep thought.
This is as far as I have got envisioning this idea as it slowly is starting to take shape. And remember This will tell the whole guts of the story of the prequal trilogy in under 30 minutes spread across 3 films.
So looking at the prequals and taking for granted "it's Just footage" yields problems without even editing anything together they are totally different.
Forgetting everything else I wrote so far.
The most important thing I need to get into Jedi is the conversation between Palpatine and Anakin.
In fact all I need is the audio of palpatines voice but I need to find a way to tell the story of Darth Pleiguies.
This is what everything hangs on a decision on doing a lot of work or not so please help.
Where can I put the story of Darth PLeiguies in Return of the Jedi?
