Info: The random and general <strong>Fan Edit Ideas</strong> thread....
Time

A while back someone on the Discord suggested making a series telling the whole story of World War II by stringing together different WWII films. I think that’s a splendid idea.

To take things a step further, I wonder if it’d be possible to string together various zombie movies into one continuous apocalypse. Probably wouldn’t work as well, but who knows.

I’m sure there are other key events (mostly historical) that could be mashed together this way. WWII is certainly the most suitable candidate, though.

So do you plan on removing all allusions to the Clones being on the Republic’s side? Not only does that sound like a nightmare but I just don’t see the point.

I wonder if footage of younger Christopher Lee could be used as a flashback?

Years ago I tried using footage of him as Dracula. Not sure if it was any good. What kind of flashback did you have in mind?

A really ambitious project would incorporate Grievous in all 3 somehow, like the guy who made him Maul.

Maybe…there is a way to incorporate grievous even earlier. Maybe into the ATOC droid army. Or even further into the Neomoidian army as a lowly TK4 Roger Roger droid who wants to be more.

Or even more ambitious…make him Darth Jar Jar after all.

If I had the deepfake skills, I would edit in Maul and Grievous and Dooku to meet.

Grievous could be leading the droid army in TPM in his natural Kaleesh form, then shows up rebuilt in AotC after being aboard the Donut when it explodes. Really, though, any such additions are beyond any of our skills.

Really, the most we could hope for is maybe adding him to the background of the Separatist meeting in AotC.

The Essential Star Wars Animated Series Episodes for Movie Marathon Inclusion
Time

Here’s a spreadsheet I made. It covers all of Clone Wars S1-6 and Rebels. I have notes indicating which episodes are part of which characters’ arcs. The Smudger movie edits and CW fortune cookies are included as a bonus. Arcs that were planned but cancelled with the show when Star Wars was acquired by Disney are included with light grey for those that were adapted into another medium and dark grey for those that never saw the light of day in any form. I haven’t seen Resistance or CW S7 so their documentation is very rudimentary and incomplete.

Based on my test shot, I’d say replacing Sidious with Dooku is perfectly doable, so long as we can find a good enough voice impressionist for him. Also, the dialog introducing Darth Maul would need to be trimmed to leave out the part about him being his apprentice.

Still, I can’t help but wonder if it’d be too strange for Dooku to be hooded. Oh well, I guess.

The Rise of Skywalker: Ascendant (Released)

For TROS there is no way around the spirit transfer ritual. It’s an integral part of the plot, so discussion of its removal is moot.

Except you could easily make it so that sucking the lifeforce of the dyad was Palpatine’s plan all along, allowing you to remove any mention of soul transfer.

Would it be worth adding Palpatines transmission from Fortnite? That would make a good intro

We’ve discussed it extensively by now, but seeing as it’s the last film in the Saga, maybe we could break tradition the way I did with the end credits being quiet. Basically, open the film with Palpatine’s message interrupting the crawl. Wait no, that doesn’t sound good. Maybe what could work is instead of panning down to a ship or planet, the camera stays still on the starfield as Palpatine’s message begins playing. Queue a montage of the First Order, Resistance, and various planets listening to it.

But in all honesty, unless you wanna use it as a way to cut the opening lightspeed skipping scene, you might as well just do like Hal and throw into the briefing scene.
