Looking forward to this Acbagel!
I watched through Bad Batch and enjoyed its underlying story but it’s overall reliance on repeating the same story arch with accepting Omega’s role in their squad was tiresome and unfortunately most of the episodes felt like filler!
I’m sure you’ll be able to make something quite compelling with what’s there!
I definitely felt the same way! I do know there is a worthwhile story to be constructed out of what they created, it’s just a matter of analysing where that lies and transforming it into a touching experience. I am up for the challenge and always love to hear ideas if you have any.

This project sounds really interesting, and I’m looking forward to seeing your edit! I have only watched the first season of The Bad Batch once, but had little interest in watching it again due to the repetitive parts you mentioned earlier (“No, it’s too dangerous”. “Please, Hunta.” “Fine.”), as well as the silly stuff with Omega, where the show becomes a Disney children’s program.
I had wondered about the inclusion of the footage from TCW in an edit of TBB; it doesn’t seem that it would work very well though, once you remove the content with the Jedi.
Indeed, and as my title of the project is “A More Mature Edit” I certainly aim to reduce any and all feeling of that jarring kids-oriented presentation.
You are correct, the Jedi-less TCW content is truly quite dull and I don’t see any way around that. I know Tales of the Jedi is coming out soon but I highly doubt that will influence this project at all either, considering the name haha…
I am very thankful that TBB S2 got pushed back until January as that actually gives me hope on finishing this before then! Hoping to start this in a couple weeks as I finish up my Mando project now.
