Using Rogue One footage is dumb because it’s very clearly set during the OT. There’s no way to remove all the iconography in a way that would make it plausibly pass off as being in the ST era.
Rugosa as Pasaana?
No rotoscoping the entire scene in EbSynth reuqired, just some coral superimposed onto the background in key shots. This could be done with CGI or miniatures.
Bonus points if we include sulphur pools.
It’s an anti-copyright soundalike. They all do that. Surely you’ve heard one on a YouTube parody before, right?
Maybe, instead of relenting, Anakin could’ve jumped out of the ship and left Obi-Wan to fight Dooku on his own. Obi-Wan loses and Dooku escapes, and we’re left to wonder if Anakin had stayed, could the war have ended the day it began? This could fuel Anakin’s motivation to fight in this war and take more drastic measures to try and end it, leading him on the path to the dark side.
I like that.
Replace every instance of the Imperial March with this.
I made a whole (1 minute) Persona fanfilm using EbSynth to paint the walls blue. I should warn you it’s extremely time consuming and struggles with camera movement.
Edit this into the ending of TROS:

It doesn’t play.
I love the idea of just editing tone-deaf product placement into dramatic scenes.
Alec Guinness joins Luke in TROS on Ach-To in sharing guidance with Rey.
“Don’t be afraid, Rey. By the way, have you tried KFC? It’s been scientifically proven to boost midi-chlorian performance.”
Change everything so that the force is really about alcohol.
Except that he can regenerate. Plus Crispy is arguably a different incarnation.
My attempt at re-editing AOTC’s ending, and with some to it spark! 😉
JEDIT:
Inspired by one of Snooker’s previous edits.
What song is that?
Yeah but he survived on a chunk that fell to Kef Bir. He can shoot lightning out of his hands and do that spinny jump thing, surely he can survive the impact. I know that’s gonna be a bit much for some people but it works for me.
I can’t imagine a way of recoloring the sand that wouldn’t also change the color of the characters’ skin.
EbSynth: Now this looks like a job for me.
If I do do that I’ll make it so you can change the color of the sand to whatever you want. Sam with the sky. I’m thinking maybe cyan sand and magenta sky? Black sand, yellow sky? Something striking.
Someone also made the Rey meditation jungle scene purple that looked pretty cool but looked a bit avatar-ish.
That would be me. Here it is.
I think super orange is the easiest place to go with Pasaana.
Then it’s just Geonosis.
Telecine is still way more impressive.
Palpatine doesn’t explode falling down the pit. He just falls out of sight. That’s how he’s around in TRoS. Not some silly clone. He’s the real deal who’s been to hell and back staying alive.
Even if you set the theatrical versions aside in their own timeline, that’s still three versions that are in Legends.
I can’t help but wonder about the logic of loudly announcing to the Rebels “Hey, this shuttle has the most important man aboard it. It would be a shame if anything were to happen to it.” but at the same time it does look really cool.
Lately I’ve been experimenting with putting Holst’s “Mars - The Bringer of War” in TROS’ finale; it’s not technically a > Star Wars piece, but it had a lot of influence on A New Hope’s soundtrack, so using it here might make it feel like it’s come full circle.
Here it is as Rey is standing up to Palpatine:

Ngl, reminds me more of Murray Gold than John Williams, but still not totally off-base. Still, of all the places you could possibly remove the Force theme from, this feels like the wrong one. It works well enough here, though.
That’s right, I’m back bitches. Hopefully for good.
I would actually be totally cool with someone like Adywan or anyone else making an edit where the Death Star II explodes with visible debris. Just not shots of it landing on Kef Bir.
I could unironically see a shot of the debris landing on Kef Bir working well as part of the SE celebration montage.
Add in a famous historical monster (Adolf Hitler, Osama bin Laden, Genghis Khan, etc.), and make him a side character in any of the movies.
Adolf Hitler giving the Starkiller Base speech?

The east still has horrible customs, but the west still raped the world.
It doesn’t matter where you go, humans will always find a way to be horrible to each other.
Oh right, he destroys it at the start of the film. Hope that wouldn’t be too anti-climactic after a whole film of build-up. I guess they did the same thing with Dooku and it turned out okay.
This feels like it could fit somewhere. It’s from TPM. Apparently Shmi’s theme, although it feels more like just filler than an actual theme to me. It’s like anyone’s gonna instantly recognize it. I think sprinkling lots of little Williams bits like this in the later films would do wonders.
You going for a David Yates grading? It helps being able to see what’s going on, you know? Granted, you haven’t gone quite that far, but just keep it in mind.
Rey is the new chosen one, explains her powers
Why do they need to be explained?
Anakin was first chosen one -> Luke -> Rey : all chosen ones have issues with the dark side.
So the first Chosen One just happens to give birth to the second even though it’s not hereditary in the slightest given Rey is unrelated?
TROS: No Palpatine, replace him with Snoke (the real one)
Ah yes, replace the main villain of the Saga with his bargain bin knockoff.
TROS : The Star Destroyers are “Force Illusions” - real but not real if you catch my drift.
Why include them at all then?
Only briefly glancing at what you’d written I was expecting - Edit: link removed by moderator - posting racist videos on here is not acceptable.
The Beatles are overrated. I mean they’re fine, but I really don’t get the appeal.
Maybe the mining of the planet could be used to imply that the planet’s the source of all the Star Destroyers also.
So is that why you’re leaving the hollowed out parts? 'Cause personally I would just make it an unaltered Ilum, no mass mining involved.
Perhaps the scene where the Hosnian system is destroyed could be recontectualized to be an attack from a First Order Dreadnaught.
I’ve been saying this literally since before Dreadnoughts were even a thing. The fact that they are makes it all the more approachable. The fact is the destruction of the Senate is important. What isn’t is the destruction of an entire star system.
