Seems like there might be an extended shot or two in here: https://vimeo.com/405275046
Someone want to take a look and possibly remove that watermark?
Yeah, well, if you watched ‘The Clone Wars’ CG series, you’ll have gotten to know Ki-Adi-Mundi, Aayla Secura, Plo Koon, and Adi Gallia!
I kid. To each their own.
I’ve seen every episode. Like I said, though, you have to take the films as their own thing I believe.
Thanks for saving me the time haha
I don’t know who the fuck edited this thread to say released. Not cool. ROTS is done but that’s it. The other two aren’t even close.
Sincere apologies for the bump that started the mayhem, DominicCobb. I wasn’t aware it was so far from finished. Though I think most people here asking for links only really assumed they would by getting just ROTS anyway.
Oh I don’t blame you at all, it’s a separate issue. And I’ll make sure everyone who asked gets a link to ROTS when I get the chance.
Someone changed a fan edit thread of mine to say “Released.” I don’t know who thought that was okay to do or why, but regardless of whether or not it was an accurate change to make (it is not), I would at least appreciate someone asking if it’s okay or not, or at the very least a heads up. Now I’m being with inundated with PM requests for edits that aren’t ready yet.

Started a new job last week so you guys are gonna have to learn, like Luke, “patience.”
We’d then be about in the same boat foe the Coruscant shot, wouldn’t we?
Yeah it wouldn’t be a solution to anything just an alternative.
Hmm, would it be too much to ask for someone to mock up an alt where Naboo has the Holdo maneuver star destroyer?
I mostly meant that we know who all of the actors for the original Knights were and they were all male, and also that none of them had the darksaber.
We also know that the original “actors” weren’t actors so much as stand-ins for later.
Also, no one knew that Moffat’s Gideon had the Darksaber until he pulled it out. It’s quite portable. Also, who knows, maybe she didn’t acquire it until sometime in the years between that flashback and a year after TFA/TLJ takes place.
I just feel portraying it as an impossible plot hole is a bit much.
That’s a valid point.
That said, the scripts do not make her feel like a very good villain, haha.
Probably because we don’t have the script that actually features her to determine.
Even if we had the script, she would probably still seem like a last-minute afterthought. Trevorrow has never been good at writing compelling villains, and the plot outline that was posted doesn’t feature her much at all. She shows up for the final fight, dies, and that’s her entire screen time. She feels like Darth Maul 2.0.
I’m not gonna doubt it, but it seems weird to be so definitive when we don’t have the script, only secondhand reports.

None of them were pink OR had a bow.
No boob armor either.
Imagine if Kylo had straight up killed Palpatine at the start and been the primary antagonist. TLJ turned all the villains into jokes, with Hux being ragdolled around, Snoke dying like Jar Jar, and Kylo throwing a tantrum at Luke. Phasma not so much, but she was wasted too, so…
Getting Kylo back on track to be a genuine threat would’ve helped raise the emotional stakes and made his evolution over the trilogy more interesting.
Unfortunately…I don’t think this is editable with current material. Probably 10 years away to be able to edit that with deepfakes and video games.
That was the intention with The Last Jedi killing Snoke, to set Kylo up as Episode IX’s main antagonist. That’s what Colin Trevorrow’s Duel of Fates did as well. I think that was the prevailing idea forward until Abrams’ came back.
Of course, Treverrow’s script didn’t handle it particuarily well either, contriving an excuse for Kylo to get an even more Vader-ey mask and having him lose the final fight because Rey becomes a bad fanfiction grey Jedi using both the light and dark, and with later revisions pulling the ‘last minute turn to the light’ and making one of the Knights of Ren (coincedentally, one that was very much not visible during the flashback in TFA, because a) she’s a woman and b) she has the darksaber) be the eleventh hour final boss.
Because it’s so obvious in the TFA flashbacks that none of them are women?
I know we’ve pretty much retired the Ajan Kloss = Naboo idea, but the more I think about it, Ajan Kloss we wouldn’t have to change the canon to make Ajan Kloss into a planet we’ve seen before: On Wookieepedia, there’s no official information as to where Luke’s Jedi Temple (from the flashbacks in TLJ) was located, and given that it was where Luke trained Leia it would make sense for Ajan Kloss to be that same planet.
Can anyone think of a way to make that clearer in the movie?I think I assumed that Luke trained Leia on Endor, as the flashbacks resemble that forest. Luke’s Jedi Temple from the flashbacks in The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi don’t resemble this forest area to me at all.
The flashback I believe has been confirmed to be Ajan Kloss. As to where Luke’s temple is supposed to be? I don’t know.
Instead of re-using the line from ROTS maybe you could use the line from the trailer: “long have I waited, and now… The day of victory is at hand, the day of the Sith.”
That line is in the film as well.
You guys do realize there are discussion threads for these movies right? You don’t need to keep making the same 5 dumb complaints over and over again here.
I’ve updated the Naboo clip for the victory sequence:
I’ll adjust it based on feedback and send a final version over to Hal ASAP
Looks great, besides what others have said I would say slow down the Destroyer falling as well a bit, doesn’t look like it should have that much speed at that point.
Hal, is there a clip of your version of the duel with the Solo bit?
During the Exegol arrival there is no music, added music from The Last Jedi soundtrack and it really improves and increases the stakes of the scene, feels a lot more intense with this added I made sure it lined up with the shots in the scene in-terms of pacing it in correctly.
Test: https://youtu.be/l3rwZUhTP0k
Uses music from Last Jedi Soundtrack.
Just as an FYI the first part of “Battle of the Resistance” from the soundtrack is unused. That’s what I’ve inserted.
Eventually, probably if Dom ever finishes his edit.
FTFY
Seriously though, what happened to him? He hasn’t posted much of anything for a while, and he hasn’t made any updates on his TROS edit for a long time.
Sup dude. My edit has been let’s say 95% finished for about two months now, so there hasn’t been anything to update. Only minor changes left but have been holding off releasing because I’ve been waiting for stuff like new VFX shots (plus have just happened to be busy for the past few weeks).
Alright, I sent MoviesRemastered and a couple others this latest version yesterday. This is a lower quality render but in terms of the saber I would say this version is finalized (other than some nitpick fixes with Finn’s part at the very end). All masking issues were in the theatrical release and I think the effect is subtle enough to not be overpowering.

Looking great, one thing I’d say is be wary of the tip of the saber, sometimes the way the crackling happens to be it sort of gives the appearance of boxy top which is less than ideal.
Would love to see the crackling effect for the Skywalker saber. I’m also pro no crackle when Ben gets it, I believe I’ve made that exact suggestion before even.
Been gone for a bit but cool to see poppa has come up with a great shot of Ochi’s ship leaving Pasaana, which is actually perfect for my edit.
Here’s an alt for the end celebration including Coruscant in place of Endor!
Coruscant End Celebration
pw: faneditThe incredible backplate was made by jonh, and I comped in the ships and added a bit of texture.
Excellent work by both of you!
Whoops, misread.
