The Prequel Radical Redux Ideas Thread

I wouldn’t call Prequel Yoda abominable. He looks fine. I’m just editing for consistency. It’s not that he looks bad, it’s that he looks different.

I’m glad you like it though. Unfortunately, it’s not a proper deepfake. It’s just a manually edited frame run through EbSynth. What made is what you got. The process could be repeated, however, although it would be tedious.

I rescored Han Solo’s cameo / Ben Solo’s redemption to have a more Skywalker feel, did this back when the HDR released.

I used the theme from the Phantom Menace when Anakin is freed from Slavery, feels like a really beautiful call back and flows perfectly with this scene, especially being that Ben Solo is the last Skywalker it felt just right, the Saga begins with Anakin being freed to this track and now it ends with Ben Solo being freed from the darkside.

I’m curious to see how well this blends in with the rest of the scene, as the original had music. Is the dialog on an isolated channel?

That’s amazing! The music transitions could use a little work. In the shot from inside the transport, you can clearly see that it’s not Mustafar, and I’m not really onboard with a shot featuring a palm tree, but aside from that this is fantastic! Oh and I’d leave out the shot of the eruption.

What Battlefront map did you use and how did you make it look like Mustafar? I’m guessing the burning foliage was already there?

Hal, for the end are you thinking of using Idir’s “Rey Skywalker” with or without music?

Also, I was thinking about the scene where Rey hears the voices of Jedi past, and I was thinking that if it works with the audio, that cutting Ahsoka’s line would be a good idea.

Don’t get me wrong, she’s my favorite SW character and I love Ashley’s voice for her, but her presence in that scene was confusing for fans.

Because all of the other Jedi Rey hears are dead, people of course wondered if Ahsoka was too, prompting Dave Filoni to say that she was fine. Which makes it weird that she’s in the scene.

Secondly, she’s getting ready to make a live action appearance played by a different actor, which imo compounds the weirdness of her TRoS appearance.

Anyway, just some thoughts.

She should’ve died on Malachor. The fandom has circlejerked a good character into a gift from god who cannot and must not die.

On the subject of Mustafar, I realized recently that the famous shot of Kylo Ren extending his lightsaber (from the first TFA teaser trailer) didn’t actually appear in the movie. Plus, it doesn’t show his surroundings very much so I was thinking that some color correction could be used to make it look like he’s arriving to fight the Mustafarians.

I had seen that suggested somewhere and if it can be done it could work great. Key word: could.

As interesting and impressive of a task that is Jonh … I am the guy who hated everything about Rebels so anything that plays tribute to it, especially the “World between Worlds” and Time Travel crap … it’s a nope for me.

I too disliked Rebels, and hated the time travel, but the World Between Worlds itself I actually really like. It plays into the mysticism of the Force. Just because a show is bad doesn’t mean there aren’t good elements within it.

I would put a filter over that to indicate it’s a vision. Not because it isn’t obvious but just because it looks strange not having one. It also clarifies that your jarring cutaway is not part of the vision. Yeah, that scene transition is rough. You need an establishing shot.

On a different note, how would you guys feel about TLJ ending with Kylo finding Palps, but we don’t find out it’s him 'til the end of RoS. Basically, we don’t see him, and his only line would be “I have been every voice you have ever heard inside your head.” Since the line is said in the voices of three different characters, people won’t just immediately assume it’s Palpatine. Then again, maybe it’s too obvious that the master manipulator of this trilogy would be the same guy doing exactly that in the first six films.

Hey guys! The hobbit’s name is Beaumont Kin! I guess he’s French. Who’m I kidding, we’re just keep calling him the hobbit/Charlie from Lost.

I’d like to see someone pull off the miracle of making Darth Jar Jar a real thing.

While it makes for a fun joke, I’m strongly against Darth Jar Jar being a thing in a non-parodic edit.

What if the “destruction” of starkiller base causes the destroyers to rise from beneath the surface.
I was thinking that the search for the map to Skywalker could be turned into the search for the wayfinders, thus introducing Palpatine at the end of TFA.

So what happens to the entirety of TLJ?
