Just a little heads up, the subtitles for S01E04 are missing. The link for the S01E04 subs in your spreadsheet is a repeat of the link for episode S01E03 subs.
Cheers!

The Clone Wars: Refocused [COMPLETE] + Subtitles for season one! — Page 99

Tales of the Empire is soon to drop, and features Morgan Elsbeth and Barriss Offee.
It looks, from the trailers, like there might be a Morgan Elsbeth flashback to the Massacre episode, which I included in TCW:R as part of the episode ‘Retribution’, my s02e02. You might be wondering if I’m going to edit that episode to include the Elsbeth content.
I don’t plan to.
There’s a simple reason for this: TCW:R focuses on the narrative of the Clone Wars. It’s a similar situation to how I handled TCW season six’s Bad Batch arc - in that case, even though the Bad Batch episodes happened during the clone wars, really they’re part of a different narrative, the Bad Batch narrative. The Bad Batch arc of TCW really should be treated as ‘episode zero’ of the Bad Batch show, a flashback to set up its current narrative.
Similarly, whilst Morgan being present during the Nightsister Massacre is set during the Clone Wars, Morgan as a character doesn’t join the narrative in a significant way until Mando season two (at least 28 in-universe years later, or over about 70 real world hours of content later if watching chronologically). Or at least, assuming Morgan’s TOTE episodes are set during the Empire, her main narrative will happen somewhere in the Empire era, not during the Clone Wars.
I’ll likely acknowledge at least the Barriss Offee content in my ‘Follow-on content’ section, but I don’t think either will need to be incorporated into this show.

Totally agree.
Different question though after watching the BB finale: You had considered doing a Zillo Beast episode in the past. Has the likelihood of that happening increased with how the BB ended?

I haven’t seen this season of BB, but I heard that the Zillo Beast features. I’ll definitely produce that episode as it’s become relevant. I doubt it’ll become one of my recommended ones (both because I’m sure the appearance in BB has its own context, and because BB itself doesn’t seem to have become relevant enough to garner a lot of cultural weight), but yep, I’ll make it and include it in place.

As far as I can tell it’s not the same massacre but one that happens at the end of the war, the one from the Darth Maul comic where Talzin is killed.

Well, I’ve just watched the Barriss episodes. A nice conclusion to her arc.
I’m very glad I cut her ‘Red lightsabers suit me’ moment from my Fall of Ahsoka episodes, I think that’s borne out nicely with the direction her character took here.
Up until the third Barriss episode, I’d kind of felt like maybe I could have put this all together, along with the last Ahsoka episode from Tales of the Jedi, and perhaps the final scene of Clone Wars featuring Vader finding Ahsoka’s lightsaber, into a single ‘aftermath’ episode. But the final Barriss episode ends after the Kenobi show, and I don’t want this to mess with a chronological watch too much.
I’ll add light notes to that effect in the spreadsheet, but I don’t think I’ll produce any content out of this.
And since the Inquisitors don’t feature in Bad Batch, I’d probably actually watch all three of these episodes either side of the Kenobi show in future watches (two before, one after) - they feel best placed there both thematically and chronologically, and that way the full Lyn/Fourth Sister arc plays through both shows properly.

Hi Eddie, I was wondering if you personally have preferred prequel edits to pair with the Refocused project. I know your spreadsheet says to choose your favorites but I’m wondering if there’s any you think work particularly well in this context.

That’s a good question! As a rule I like edits which preserve all the canon, so Hal’s are always a safe bet. I really enjoyed Spence’s too, though they cut a bit too much canon for my preferences. They’re tight and enjoyable though.

Gotcha. Hal’s are probably my preference at this point as well. My own edits I mostly keep around for legacy reasons. I know Hal spitballed a few years back some ideas for even more conservative/canon-friendly edits. I’ve considered trying to create cuts based on those notes, but I’m not sure if there’s enough of an audience for it, there are so many prequel edits already out there.
