Do you think you could possibly make a V3 with the correct aspect ratio? V2’s aspect ratio is way off.

Hey, just FYI, V3 is currently exporting with fixed aspect ratio!

Awesome! Please send me the link when it’s ready.

Hey guys, V3 is coming soon (currently exporting). See updates in the main post.

New opening Crawl:

The time for peace is over. Once again, evil has risen in the galaxy. The First Order has plunged the unprepared New Republic into disarray.

KYLO REN, a former student of Master Luke Skywalker, has succumbed to the dark side and obliterated the New Jedi Academy. In the aftermath, Luke has vanished into the unknown regions.

REY, the sole survivor of the academy massacre and the last beacon of hope for the Resistance, has surrendered in a bid to bring her former friend Kylo Ren back to the light.

The Resistance is racing to General Leia Organa’s position on the planet Crait, but they are being pursued by the sinister Supreme Leader Snoke, who desperately seeks the location of the last Jedi…

This really is a shame. I wonder why no one else has chimed in about this.

Hey! Thanks for reaching out about it. And I’m gutted that the aspect ratio is off but I simply don’t currently have the time to do a v3 ☹️ I have watched it on my phone, pc & tv and didn’t notice it.

Mostly enjoyed the edit, I think this is a really good condensation of the sequel trilogy and I really liked the reordering of the stuff from Force Awakens and The Last Jedi, as well as the stuff that’s included from Rise of Skywalker. Most of the worst stuff from Rise of Skywalker is gone, but not much of the overall narrative from that movie has been changed. Still removing the worst stuff does make that section way more tolerable and because episode 9 is a whole lot shorter, and because both episodes 7 and 8 have been shortened a lot as well, it doesn’t feel as disappointing. I also like what was done with Leia a lot more than what they did in the theatrical cut. Some of the transitions are a bit abrupt, I noticed a few, but for the most part, the edit flows pretty well. If you were dissatisfied with the sequel trilogy, I think this is a pretty good replacement, especially for an edit less than 3 hours long

Thank you so much for your feedback and I’m really happy that you enjoyed it!

Opening Crawl:
Episode VII
RISE OF THE LAST JEDI

The time for peace is over, EVIL has been allowed to rise again in the galaxy. The FIRST ORDER, led by the evil Supreme Leader SNOKE have plunged the unprepared New Republic into disarray.

MASTER LUKE SKYWALKER’s Jedi Academy has been destroyed by KYLO REN, a powerful student, seduced by the Dark Side. In the aftermath, LUKE has vanished, and REY, the sole survivor of the academy, becomes the last beacon of hope for the resistance.

The FIRST ORDER has been preparing in the shadows for their attack and in a sinister twist, KYLO REN has captured REY, bringing her before SNOKE to reveal the location of LUKE SKYWALKER.

The resistance is racing to GENERAL LEIA ORGANA’s position on the planet CRAIT, but they are being trailed by the diabolical FIRST ORDER…

[V3 RELEASED]

Star Wars
Episode VII: Rise of The Last Jedi (APB123 Edit)
Runtime: 2hr 47min (with credits)

-V3 UPDATE-

Runtime: 2hr 47min (with credits)

Changes:

• New opening Crawl (see comments)

• Removed two unnecessary Kylo scenes
• Improved Han & Leia scene
• Removed two unnecessary scenes on Starkiller base
• Improved force connection scenes between Kylo & Rey throughout
• Added the dark hole Rey goes down
• Added more force connection scenes to further the bond
• Improved Kylo & Rey’s meeting on Kylo’s ship
• Altered & improved Kylo & Rey’s water fight

I think this Version 3 is probably one of the best edits out there for condensing all three films into one under 3 hours and telling a pretty cool story overall (if I do say so myself). It flows seamlessly between the three main parts of the film:

1/3 - Snoke & the attack on crait
2/3 - Starkiller base / Establishing dyad connection
3/3 - Wayfinders / The Final Order

Leave a comment and a review 😃

Overview:
The era of peace has ended, plunging the New Republic into disarray with the ascent of the diabolical First Order to power. Master Luke Skywalker’s Jedi temple lies destroyed, leaving only two formidable Force wielders bound by a rare bond unseen for generations. Pursued by the malevolent Supreme Leader Snoke, the Resistance rushes to rendezvous with General Leia Organa on the planet Crait.

What is it?
I have edited all three sequel films into one EPIC adventure film.

About me (related to Star Wars):
I am a huge fan of Star Wars (as we all are), I watch so many fan edits, and I actually love most star wars projects just for having the galaxy on my screen, but I couldn’t understand why the sequels were just so… bad!?

How is it different?
I wanted to give a new take on the story, one that’s fast-paced, with plenty of twists and turns, without spending too much time on the past films and cameos. I honestly believe Kylo and Rey are great characters if they are given the right story. I tell a story of two powerful force users who have an intertwined destiny, and their connection constantly pulls them between the light and dark.

(Essentially, I wanted to remove hours of wasted backstory in deserts and then just 20 minutes of training to become the most powerful Jedi in the galaxy, bad timing and underwhelming reveals…)

My story kicks off with the First Order trailing the Resistance as they race to the planet Crait to join General Leia Organa, while Kylo Ren has captured Rey and is bringing her before Supreme Leader Snoke to reveal Luke Skywalker’s location. From here, the story of two powerful force users unfolds…

What’s my vision of the two main characters?

• Kylo: is full of anger and resentment, searching for power and purpose in every way, but he’s constantly tormented by his decision and his pull to the light.
• Rey: is strong and determined to try to stop the dark from winning but is constantly tormented by her parents and struggles with how easily she allows the dark to take over her.

How did I cut so much time? Here’s a few examples:

• Finn is part of the resistance from the beginning
• No Canto bight
• No Phasma
• Limited Rose
• Limited pink hair lady who lightskips
• Limited time on Kajimi
• Limited General Hux time
• No smuggler
• Limited the cameos
• No Rey training
• No looking for Luke

What’s new? (without any spoilers for how I’ve changed the story)

• Kylo Ren and Rey are powerful force users from the start who share a bond after both being students at Luke’s Jedi Academy. Because they are equally matched, this “tug of war” story helps drive the entire film.
• The opening threat is Snoke.
• Kylo and Rey are both conflicted by their feelings and emotions from the start;
• Kylo’s thirst for power and to run from his regrets drives his actions.
• Rey’s loyalty to Luke/Leia drives her actions.
• Kylo’s Ren’s identity is kept a secret until the time is right.
• Star Killer base is the main threat towards the middle of the movie.
• Kylo tries to convince Rey to join him on the dark side throughout.
• Exegol’s Sith Fleet becomes the next main threat through rumours and hearsay.
• Finding wayfinders becomes the main focus for both Kylo & Rey
• Rey arrives to Exegol first, ben arrives a little later
• The “big baddie” reveal is more shocking by revealing it towards the end
• Rey’s link to the “big baddie” is also more shocking this way
• Kylo’s choice to help Rey against the “big baddie” makes more sense now
• Added new audio score where needed
• Added new character lines
