Also I would cut the rathtar scene as it would be to hard. Snoke will be tricky as well

I don’t want to cut anything from the movie in my edit if it could help it, as for Snoke, I was thinking something like this:
Snoke

That the sort of thing that could work really well. It reminds me of the Fortress of Solitude from Superman The Movie

Another thread in General SW has devolved into the Youtube comments section.

The whole place is turning to shit. They are spreading out of General SW and into other sections. Without the ignore feature its a nightmare even coming here and anything of interest seems to get buried with all the crap.

As an option it would be good for some. I personally would like to be able to disappear threads that don’t interest me so I can focus more on the ones I like.

Whole lot of “how the hell would I do that?” in these threads lately.

With all due respect, many things you would have thought to be impossible have been done either by yourself or with help with others in your edits and that is so far and this project is a long way off.

Surely the best thing is to get ideas and then see if you can do them rather than restricting the ideas to what people think you can currently do on your own?

The same way the 1997 crowd made Han step on Jabba’s tail… only not quite as badly.

Jabba’s tail shot was not only pulled off by those harboring millions of dollars at their disposal, but it was only one shot.
There is literally no way in the world he could pull off a convincing limp for every one of the original cast.

That was 1997. With Ady being able to replace mattes and major set elements I’m pretty sure someone could pull off an unconvincing limp with modern digital technology. Get real 😛

It’s an interesting idea.
One change I would make would be to make the eyes of the original actors match their younger selves. As people age their eyes lose some shine, it’s usually the tell in even really good old age makeup. So if you made Carrie, Harrison and Mark look like they are wearing old age make up rather than being natural it would go some of the way to pulling off the effect.
I would also make all the original class limp a bit because that’s what young actors think older people do.
I’d replace most of Snoke with the original Palpatine (mask sections and animal eyes) just keep the lips for sync reasons and maybe use computer morphing which would be a cutting edge technology at that point.
