Okay, I’ve got a lot to say now after taking the time to follow all of this progress… 😉
So first of all, Hal asked this:
This is a long shot, but does anyone know of 3PO dialogue speaking about a rumored or hidden imperial fleet?
I regret to report that after searching far and wide for such a line, all I could come across was lines of him saying things like, “This old ship is a piece of shit, Han Solo!” and such…
On that note, Hal, how do you feel about his line, “How dare you! We’ve only just met!” 😒 Does it need to be changed?
Also, I posted this a while ago, but now seeing that Bobson Dugnutt is back online, here it is again for your consideration:
This isn’t on Hal’s list, but I strongly recommend using Bobson Dugnutt’s version of force ghost Luke on Ach’To when it is finished as it drastically reduces the level of blueness and makes it more in line with the OT ghosts.

I wouldn’t change this. If you keep changing all of 3PO’s lines the memory wipe is going to feel even less consequential than it already does.
New ideas aside, there’s not a great deal left to do! I’ll need to get some things from others as they are completed, but I’m going to go ahead and render out a second workprint. Pretty much everything I’ve done since the first one I’ve shared in this thread, but this will be better for anyone who hasn’t already checked it out.
I’d really like to see Dominic’s vision sequences in the second workprint, even if they aren’t the final versions. I feel like for now you could just slot in what he’s already made available. I think it will help a lot with the first act restructure.
Also I’m not sure if you saw Dom’s other clips where he extended the TIE showdown using shots from the trailer:

And the “Ben, come home” clip:

I know this isn’t an entirely important edit, but in comparison to TFA and TLJ, Ahch-To in TROS feels very barren and lifeless (other than that one shot of the two porgs), there is always usually porgs far off in the distance making noise. Maybe adding in Porg noises in the distance would help it feel more like Ahch-To?

Yeah, I’m counting on getting some things from Dom eventually but I don’t have them yet. This workprint won’t be the last, but it’ll take into account what’s been done in the last week or so and be a better experience for those who want to watch a workprint and haven’t done so yet.
Okay, Octorox, I went ahead and added vimeo-sourced DominicCobb footage for the two vision scenes. They are temp sources, and have only stereo audio, but it’ll help give a better overall sense of the shape of the edit.
“I’m so hungry, I could eat an Octorok!”

“Wow, what are all those heads?”

You’ve inspired a new avatar.
Man, it never did get better than this. Circa 2008:
Oh my GOD

This setup is what all true warriors strive for.
Wow! So much to digest there. Hehe.
Um, I feel silly now, but here’s another pass of a new Pasaana end shot with Ochi’s ship:

The audio is just placeholder. It’s full res now and I added a bit of a push-in on the camera movement and some more texture.

From what I remember, porgs weren’t in TFA at all. I had to add sound effects from TLJ for TFA closing shots to match. I think they were only invented to cover up the amount of noise due to the island being a bird sanctuary. Totally get what you mean about TROS Ahch-To.
You’d think wasting all that money going to Jordan to film on green screen that they’d at least wait til breeding season was over and reshoots on Ahch-To instead of filming in a studio. It REALLY show.

Poppasketti, that shot looks great! I think the extra camera push helps it feel right. Nice little piece of buffer.
And not a bad idea, to consider the audio landscape for Ach-to!
Second workprint is up, same place.

Perfecto
Peace is a lie
There is only passion…
That’s nice, too!
I just downloaded your second workprint. Looking at the change list, it seems much more radical than it was before, so I’m looking forward to seeing it.

I really like these small musical additions that make for more continuity between films 😄
Well, as if my life wasn’t already packed full, I’m going to have a little less time to do this sort of thing starting mid-August.
This edit won’t be the be-all, end-all of TROS work, but I hope to be able to wrap it up fairly soon and make it a totally coherent launchpad for other work. But to have it still be something I can be happy with and enjoy as a somewhat conservative effort.
If I can at least get the edit “locked” by a certain point, that will let me work on subtitles, chapters, and things like that to hopefully be ready. I can then plug in things like jonh’s work on Luke’s hair when they’re ready. Things that don’t take a lot of time on my end and can be done whenever.
I don’t imagine there being a V2. (Although, have I ever?) This time, though, it’s more to do with real life stuff on my end in ways it hasn’t with other projects. I know I say this a lot, but I can’t thank you all enough for helping make this exist. We will get there!
Shoot, I wasn’t even thinking about the ‘Rey Nobody’ cut when I typed this up. Part of me regrets promising to do it, but it’ll be important. Worst case there may just not be subtitles, or it may take longer to get together. Essentially it’ll just be the same edit with chunks borrowed from Dominic.
Just watched the first 20 minutes or so of the new workprint. The first act of the film flows so much better now.
I’m glad I was talked into it, lol. And I like the new icon!
