Did that Sheepsish guy from YouTube finish his edit of TPM yet?

In the PT, edit Yoda’s scenes so that he talks normally.

That way, when he shows up in TESB, he really does seem loony.

It’s a little indulgent to put in the film proper, but very nice on its own.

Yeah, same for that Scene 38.

Excuse me if someone already said this, but cut in ANH, one of those recent videos titled “Obi-Wan has PTSD.” Personally, I think “Obi-Wan Remembers” is a more fitting title.

When I watched the sw prequel trilogy of your edit it looked amazing. Good 👍 Job

Thank you.

I’ve been going through a tough time, so that means a lot right now.

In AOTC, instead of the Imperial March, the anthem of the Galactic Republic plays.

Really, though, I get that was technically the true beginning of the Empire, but I thought it felt like the Imperial March was getting overused and out of place in the PT.

Re-record battle droid dialog so they say “Roger-dodger.”

Here’s something I think would be fun to think and brainstorm about.

It’s often said how the dialog in the films is awkward.

One friend of mine has said he thinks the dialog is kind of boring.

What if it weren’t so?

What specific dialog ideas would you like to recommend to help fix it?

Again, I understand that the romance dialog between Anakin and Padme is cheesy.

However, I’m trying to move past that and ponder what specific dialog to have in the films instead.

Profuse apologies for that.

To be fair, I did PM him; guess patience is all it takes sometimes…

Not going to lie, it seems I messed up and lost some links.

Can someone please send me a link to the ‘Star Wars’ fan edits uploaded by Hal 9000?

Thanks in advance!

Retitle the Rise of Skywalker to “Out of the Unknown Regions” so that the sequel trilogy’s titles form a full sentence.

My title would be “To Go to Work.”

The Force Awakens The Last Jedi To Go to Work.

wouldn’t be super bad.

In ROTS, Obi-Wan’s dialog can somehow be re-worked:

“Anakin has turned to the super bad side.”

In ANH, in the dejarik scene, Chewbacca’s subtitle can say:

“How can you do this? This is outrageous; it’s unfair!”

Add in some Eddie van Halen to Kylo’s scene with the vader helmet in TFA. Then, the next time Kylo talks to someone in the first order, dub in: “Last night, Darth Vader came down from planet Vulcan and said that if I didn’t take Lorraine out, that he’d melt my brain!”

I can tell he wasn’t using that brain either way.

Guys, guys, hear me out…

We can give Chewbacca subtitles.

I’ll start with an obvious one.

After Obi-Wan leaves Luke, Han, and Chewie on the Death Star I:

“That old man’s mad.”

I missed a shot when giving subtitles to Nien Nunb.

For that shot, I think it’ll be funny to have him say,

“I need a drink!”

In ‘Return of the Jedi,’ give Nien Nunb relevant, funny, and family-friendly subtitles.

NIEN:
<Seriously, we’re doomed, aren’t we?>

LANDO:
Don’t worry, my friend’s down there; he’ll have that shield down in time.

NIEN:
<Yeah, right, you lying sack of bantha poodoo.>

Later.

NIEN:
<I have no reading!>

LANDO:
We’ve got to get some kind of reading on that shield, up or down.

NIEN:
<You calling me a liar?>

LANDO:
How can they be jamming us if they don’t know that we’re coming?

NIEN:
<C’mon, I’m driving this ship now.>

EDIT:

Ended up playing around with that idea and a previous one using Movavi.

In ROTS, implement these shots:

Please excuse me, I don’t know where else to put this, but it would be awesome if this were edited into the space battle above Endor:

I don’t know if we have a Legit Edit Ideas Thread?

Replace the musical score for the opening crawls with Cantina Band instead.

When it works, it works.

The key phrase being “when it works.” You don’t want this to open ESB or ROTS.

Oh no, of course not. You’d need something appropriately special for RotJ…

Okay, that threw me off; it said Episode III, but then it said Return of the Jedi.

Okay, but what about this Space Quest theme music?

Wouldn’t you know it, I ended up adjusting AOTC again. I don’t know if I’m insane or have too much time on my hands.

I ended up cutting my flashback sequences in favor of the traditional linear story line.

Rearranged Anakin’s search for Shmi montage so it’s like this:

1. Talk with Jawa.
2. Speeds under rock arch.
3. Speed throughout Tatooine.
4. Hard cut to next scene.

I moved the Ahsoka teaser to right when the credits start.

Damn… that Space Quest theme is growing on me. I just might re-do my Prequel edits just to implement it…

For all of them, I just recently added the new THX logo to the beginning, because I think it looks awesome, and I think it adds a fancier feel to the edits as a whole.

In AOTC, after the explosion on the landing platform, there’s an establishing shot of the Senate office building. I tried something interesting where I had some of Palpatine’s dialogue play during the establishing shot and continue into the shot where he’s talking to the Jedi Council.

I cut the scene of Anakin and Obi-Wan on the elevator. I did another go at starting the dialogue during the establishing shot, starting with “It’s a great pleasure to see you again, m’lady.”

Before the scene of Anakin and Padme deciding to go to Tatooine, I included a flashback sequence of Ani winning the Podrace, selling the Pod, and saying goodbye to Shmi.

There’s the montage of Anakin searching for Shmi. I re-arranged the shots so the montage makes more sense to me, as in, he speeds under a rock arch, he talks with a Jawa, and then he speeds through Tatooine. The original montage ended with Anakin talking with a Jawa, and I felt like it was an awkward shot to end off of. I also changed the music to something dramatic from Two Steps from Hell.

Before the scene of Obi-Wan and Dooku talking, I included a flashback of Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon fighting Maul and Obi saying goodbye to Qui-Gon. I recently saw that ‘The Jedi’s Apprentice’ put that as a flashback before the opening title crawl, so I’ve been thinking of doing the same thing; I don’t know…

At first, I included a few scenes from The Clone Wars movie arranged in a humorous way in the middle of the credits, but I moved it to after the credits. Of course, it’s riffing on how Anakin never wanted an apprentice but gets Ahsoka anyway.

To be fair, there were already a lot of other edits to AOTC that I borrowed by downloading, I think, HAL’s edit, so I grandfathered in those by default, mainly stuff that avoids the creepiness of Anakin or removes excess dialogue.

Oh… but I just remembered a change that is mine, and I love it! During the scene of Anakin and Obi-Wan in the bar, I inserted the Grandmaster Jam music from ‘Ragnarok.’ The original scene didn’t have any club music, and I feel like this is perfect alien club music.

LOE is basically the first third of The Clone Wars movie, a montage of Anakin and Ahsoka, and then Ahsoka’s second-to-last adventure in the Clone Wars, making an inbetween-quel.

In LOE, during the montage of Anakin and Ahsoka’s adventures in the Clone Wars, I used music I found on YT that combines the Siege of Mandalore music with the Battle of Coruscant music. Earlier, I borrowed music by Two Steps from Hell, but I think this feels more appropriate.

At the end of LOE, I did include the beginning from the Siege of Mandalore arc as a post-credit sequence; that was mainly because I had trouble finding a way to include that in ROTS while also including a title crawl, as it pans down to Coruscant.

This version of ROTS does borrow a lot of edits from the New Canon Cut by NFBisms, but I still made a lot of changes on my own.

In this version of ROTS, I ended up borrowing a shot from the Clone Wars series to start with a new title crawl, then show Venator Star Destroyers exiting hyperspace, and then wiping to the scene on Yerbana; I feel like that implies that Anakin was just arriving to help Obi-Wan. After Ahsoka gets her lightsabers and everything, she walks away, and the camera wipes to the two Jedi starfighters flying around in the Battle of Coruscant.

I made a lot of tiny adjustments to make sure the wipe effects went smoothly; some of them may be a bit jarring still, but I’m more or less happy with them.

In ROTS, I removed about 30 minutes of scenes I felt were dialog-heavy without moving the plot along enough, like Palpatine putting Anakin on the Council, Anakin being told to spy on Palpatine, and Yoda getting shuttled to a Venator to go to Kashyyyk. I even cut the scene of Grievous being told to move the CIS leaders to Mustafar, because we see him announcing that to them before Obi-Wan jumps in. Besides, I like the idea of not seeing Grievous again until Obi-Wan does. I cut the scene where Yoda initiates the Defense on Kashyyyk, because I feel that what’s going on with Anakin, Obi-Wan, and Ahsoka is more important. In this edit, Yoda is already on Kashyyyk by the time we see him.

In ROTS, toward the end of the credits, I played the audio of Obi-Wan’s message to surviving Jedi.

After the credits, I show all of Vader’s scenes of getting rescued by Palpatine and getting into his suit, then he joins Tarkin viewing the DS-1 construction, and then Vader lands on the planet where Ahsoka left a lightsaber.

Obviously, I’m borrowing from Marvel by doing the whole post-credit scene thing. I just always thought that was interesting and figured I’d borrow an outside-the-box idea.

EDIT:

Also, my version of the intro is slightly different.

The title card with the text “A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away…” all fits on one line, has a comma after “ago,” and has three dots in the ellipses, instead of four.

The ‘Star Wars’ logo is light blue, like the aforementioned title card.

The title crawl is light blue, the episode number is an Arabic numeral, instead of a Roman numeral, and it ends with a period, instead of an ellipses; it also tends to avoid all caps, unlike how certain words are in all caps in the theatrical versions.
