Yeah, the extended versions of all of the major arcs are on the cards.

The Deserter is already included (the last part of the three-part ‘Tales of the Lost Clones’ anthology, my episode s02e07). But I’ll push the others up, they’re popular requests.

It would be great to have the Padme Funeral scene from Totj in the last episode!

I don’t intend to do this, mainly because it doesn’t pertain directly to the plot of TCW (it more directly follows RotS), and I don’t want to interrupt what I consider to be a flawless ending in TCW’s final episode. Better experience for the viewer is simply watching Tales of the Jedi: Resolve after RotS and the finale of TCW:R. (Which is how I have it presented currently.)

Thank you so much! That’s exactly what I was looking for!

EDIT: Oh! Since you’re asking about other potential updates or inclusions, I figure I’ll throw in what I’d personally love to see, although I recognize I’m likely in the minority on this: Part of what I’d love to experience when going through Star Wars chronologically is a steady build-up to the Death Star, and that begins with an explanation of the Kyber Crystals and how Jedi obtain them. (That’s why I like the Ilum content from CW’03.) So, I personally would love to see a shortened/refined version of the episode where the younglings obtain their Kyber Crystals.

I can do this, I’ll bump the refined version of this episode up the priority list for next to work on, and add it as an ‘extra’ episode alongside other ‘interesting but not vital to your enjoyment of TCW’ episodes.

Taking requests… Yes, that you please make your edits more easily accessible either on Google Drive, Gofile, pCloud, or Vimeo 😉

I’ll host my content wherever is cheapest for bulk hosting. I currently have 500GB of fanedits - happy to take suggestions. Google Drive (free version) isn’t feasible due to some of its restrictions.

Folks, not quite a promise as who knows how life goes, but it looks like I’ll have some time coming up soon to put a bit more work into this. Is there anything I’d previously promised, or anything else relevant to TCW, that you guys would like me to prioritise? (For example, minor fixes, extended versions of episodes, etc)

Oh, I see what you’re saying. Looks like I never did upload that one. I’ve added it now, to the Extras > Bonus Episodes folder, and added a link in the spreadsheet.

That one got combined into the season 2/3 interlude.

Ah, OK. Well, the green ones are definitely the good ones. How are you handling Asoka’s development, insofar as her early appearances (in the weaker episodes) establish the character flaws that she later overcomes? How are you handling the anthology feel, with many (great) arcs having minimal Anakin/Ahsoka?

Oh, interesting! What made it into your Clone Wars movies?

Also great. Can’t believe this was so easy. It’s bugged me for years.

If I remember right, Rebels never uses subtitled language, even for characters we haven’t ever seen using Basic before. But who cares! It’s your edit buddy. It sounds like a nice touch, and honestabe’s idea is a good one.

Sure - send me a PM and I’ll share from there.

On the topic of the speed force scene, I tried my best to fix it only using the shots that were available. Can’t tell if it works tho.

Honestly this is totally good enough. If it can be improved beyond this, excellent, but great work.

Looks great. Why cut Maul talking to Jesse about the grand plan? That was always one of the highlights of the episode for me.

We get most of that exposition in Maul’s interactions with Ahsoka and I didn’t want to detract from those scenes. The whole arc hinges on Maul luring the Jedi (ultimately the wrong Jedi) to Mandalore so the focus should be on that dynamic.

Maul revealing the nature of the grand plan to a clone didn’t feel right for his character. Clones are beneath him.

Sounds great either way. I’ve always been a big fan of yours. What’s next in this series for you? What’re your major plans for the remaining content? Any thoughts on an alternative opening movie? As you have, I’ve thought this content to death, so if there’s any valuable perspectives I can offer I’d be happy to.

That’s a lovely colour!

Now if only force speed were ever used again onscreen, I could finally sleep at night.

That’s a cool idea!

Fire me a PM please!

Really interesting to see those ideas! I must have been wondering what Ady’s prequel plans were for, what, over a decade now? Perhaps longer! I particularly like the changes to RotS which play up Palpatine’s role in the conlflict between Anakin and the Jedi/Obi-Wan.

That’s a really fair point, Bingo, I apologise to you and TDS. I was responding more to TDS specifically as they’ve raised a few ideas across the forum in various threads, but you’re entirely justified in correcting me here because, as you say, this is absolutely the place for uninhibited idea generation. My bad, carry on!

I think what you may be unaware of TDS is that everyone starts out with ideas, but it’s important to measure those against practicality. As a rule, it’s found that most of the work gets done here by people deciding ‘I’m going to do that myself’ rather than ‘Can someone else make this idea work?’ There are lots of free programs, and free teaching, that people use to realise their ideas, and they are accessible to people without any experience - the vast majority of us here are not professionals and had no or minimal experience in any of the fan editing disciplines before embarking on our projects. Similarly, at this point, the vast majority of ideas that can be had about especially the earlier movies have been had already, and more radical ones (like replace a character) are still outwith practicality. I’d recommend reading through the ideas threads, and the threads for the most successful projects, to see what the process looks like, and help refine your vision, and then consider picking up one of the tools required to realise it.

I don’t have an opinion.

I use EaseToDo backup, which I think is free. I’ve never had to use it for recovery, but it seems to do the job.

It’s on there. Line 85.

I like this idea. Most of the show definitely suits TV format, but the later stuff could definitely work as movies. If you have your thoughts about a Rebels movie ‘out loud’, g00b, i.e. here in your thread, I might be able to contribute some structural ideas a little. Smudger is undoubtedly the master of animated TV-to-movie edits and may also be willing to share some technical advice if you reach out.

So, weird announcement for you all!

Despite having a healthy number of downloads, and a good number of reviews, it turns out that everyone so far (me included) has missed a huge error with the fourth film! I’ve just had it pointed out to me that one scene was entirely duplicated!

Anyway, I’ve fixed it, and rendered the fix, and it’s uploading now. Look out for Movie #4 (Sacrifice) version 2.2 in the MEGA folder about an hour after I post this message.
