World War II was a lot more interesting than World War I. The three way war between the fascist, the communists, and the Allies made for really compelling drama.
Actually, dubbing Snoke as a woman would be an opportunity to change some lines. I know it’s a nitpick, but I’ve always hated how he says “You lost to a girl who had never held a lightsaber. You failed!” instead of “You lost to a girl who had never held a lightsaber in her life!”, the latter of which I find flows much better, but really that’s neither here nor there. Perhaps his scenes in TFA could be amended to have Snoke mention the Senate, perhaps ordering its imminent destruction.
Indiana Jones and the Island of the Dinosaurs
It’s Jurassic Park III with old Harrison Ford deepfaked over Sam Neil, his voiced dubbed by an impressionist, and his hat rotoscoped to be brown. Modern technology is toned down as much as possible to make it plausibly seem like the 50s or 60s. This unfortunately means cutting the satellite phone plot. Billy Brennan is now Dr. Jones’s paleontological advisor, since Jones himself obviously can’t fulfill that role.
Certain musical cues are replaced with the iconic Indy theme, but the rest can remain largely intact, as Don Davis masterfully imitated Williams’s signature style. The Jurassic Park theme should probably go, given its close association with the source material.
The island is reframed as a classical lost world that is typical of the Indy series’s genre of origin. Not sure what to do with all the manmade stuff, though. Prior expedition? Soviet research colony? You can’t remove it altogether as it’s in every other scene, including the unskippable runway sequence. The other question is why Jones would be dragged along in the first place.
While we’re at it, here’s Fat Herobrine.
I love making random lists in spreadsheets. It just gets me going for some reason. Is there a way to get paid for that? Sorting things subjectively?
Replace all of Williams’ music with Undertale music. Why Undertale? Because I saw a video once that did that and it was just incredible how inappropriate it felt.
Also, Holdo talks about a sick triceratops.
That opens a whole new can of worms for the worst edit thread. Hell, have Holdo talk about a sick triceratops.
I wish we’d at least get new footage or screenshots or something.
Dub Snoke with the voice of an old woman to further distinguish him her from Palpatine. They actually considered making Snoke a woman when making TFA. Does anyone ever refer to Snoke with male pronouns? Those would have to be fixed.
I interpreted the white eyes as Palps having gone blind because that’s how badly his body’s deteriorated.
I want them to delay it as long as it takes to deliver a finished, enjoyable game.
As I mentioned in the PT thread, the Deutsch-Grammophon album Across the Stars has violin arrangements of Yoda’s theme, Rey’s theme, Across the Stars and Luke & Leia that could be useful in a rescored edit.
Thank you for bringing this to my attention. Saving it to my playlist. Also, I do see potential in the rendition of Hedwig’s Theme for my Potter edits. The violin would feel a little less out of place there. In Star Wars, violin should probably be kept to a minimum. It feels hearing it lead like this. But we’ll see, if someone wants to make a mockup. The tracks do a have standard Williams orchestra backing it up, so it’s not completely strange. Hearing such intense Williams violin does remind me of Schindler’s List.
You know my Aussie friend told me the magpies go for the eyes.
Haha we have a bit of a joke on this forum’s Discord that there seems to be an unusual amount of Aussies active on the server. Nice to find another one here.
At this point I’m tempted to start assuming everyone here’s Australian by default.
Aren’t animals the product of a process that selects for survival, not happiness?
Survival is a form of happiness. A plant is “happy” when it has lots of sun, water, and nutrients.
Yeah, I’m genuinely confused at it being posted here.
The ultimate purpose of a living organism is to be happy. Most do that by not starving and being alive. Humans are a little complex. Everybody’s looking for something.
My closest friend is my ex with a flair that says “I ❤️ my amazing boyfriend”. Pretty hard to sit thru, but I manage.
Why the fuck have things been on a continuous downward spiral after 2015?
My life actually got much better in 2016 after taking quite the nosedive in 2014. 2020 is when things went bad and the virus was a big factor in that.
I really hope there IS a god or something, and all the bad things that happen to me is his/her ‘plan’, so to speak, or some purpose to my life and where it’s going.
I make my own pantheon and my own purpose. Life is hard.
I think TestingOutTheTest might be JJ Abrams.
Well he did say he obtained the original cuts of the OT through a fan source, so it’s totally possible he’s on OT. That said, I doubt he’d been a thread about re-editing his own movie.
Just to have them both together to compare…
Two shot version: https://vimeo.com/506231329
Three shot version:

Two shot version flows better imo.
Yeah, it is true that in cannon it is not at all widely known that palpatine is a sith. I would personally prefer removing the line so it connected better with the OT and cannon.
Dude, it’s thirty years later and said by a guy deeply involved in the war. Of course the Resistance would know Palps was a Sith even if the Galaxy at large didn’t know or care.
Dub Greivous to sound like Sephiroth from FFVII.
And Anakin is voiced in a Japanese due to contractual obligations.
Add an Uncle Owen voice over saying “only one season more…” and “harvest is when I need you the most…” to binary sunset, to rhyme with the ruminations scene from ROTS.
The rumination scene doesn’t have any voiceover, but sure let’s ruin that too. How 'bout…uh…“That business on Cato Neimoidia doesn’t count.”?
Make Holdo’s hair constantly rotate between colors like a fiberoptic Christmas tree.
Tempted to say this is unironically a good idea.
This is one of those brilliant ones that feels like someone, somewhere, would unironically want to implement.
