Also: YES I KNOW LUKE’S SABER IS GREEN AND I AGREE IT STANDS FOR HIS CHARACTER BUT IT JUST DOESN’T MAKE SENSE FOR THIS STUPID SCENE IN THIS STUPID MOVIE BECAUSE SHE ONLY HAS HIS BLUE ONE AND IT BREAKS EVERYTHING BUT WHATEVER I DON’T ACTUALLY CARE.

The main reason I think it should be blue and purple in the context of this edit.

Oh, and that’s a genius idea to make the little lights green and purple in the end scene. (It even makes a tad more sense that purple and green would add up to a yellow hue.) Who’s up for it? lol

Blue and purple
Anakin/Luke/Rey and Leia’s

Luke’s green is AWOL, assuming she is using the crystals of the lightsabers she has

To address something from MR’s thread, I hadn’t really planned on using his clip of added sparks to the sabers at the end of Exegol. But, the final product looks fantastic!

Please include this! It makes Rey burying them at the end make so much more sense. They served their purpose and now she has her own path. If we really want to try something cool… when Rey ignites her saber there is a green and blue color during the ignition. Can the green be recolored to purple? Implying both sabers broke and Rey used the Kyber Crystals to make her own lightsaber with them would help sell Rey Skywalker more, at least for me.

I still think a little of the coloring looks off. It’s really dark at the beginning, then the sky has a green hue in the right corner behind Rey, then goes back to being dark. The shot of the burning TIE has it almost looking pitch black around it but Rey and the Porgs are lit up. I love the idea and the hard work but I don’t think it 100% there just yet.

I’m not sure why the birth of her son would stop Leia from being a Jedi. Did she need to be a stay at home senator? I think it may cause more confusion. She needed to have a push to not continue. The death of your child would do that, and it ironically comes true.

But the good part is that in death Ben is brought back home, which is why Leia’s body waited for him. So, the death of her son at the end of her journey has a different meaning. Sounds like a misread prophecy 😉

Hey guys, I’m not a mod but let’s have grumpy discussion elsewhere. I swear this thread is turning into the General Discussion page.

Do we have a remaining things list for V2? Any proposed changes that have yet to be owned by someone that we would like to try and have done by V2?

Not that it is my decision but I think we should try solidifying a list of remaining things for this edit and any other discussion could go to the Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker Redux Ideas thread.

Just thought of a fun change that could make for a good easter egg. When Rey is on Pasanna and stumbles across the kids watching the puppet show, how hard would it be to make it look like Luke versus the First Order and slightly extend the shot as a nice callback to TLJ. Especially with Rey’s reaction afterwards. Doesn’t seem like it would be too complicated for someone to mock up. Not even sure if it is worth the trouble though…

It’s nice seeing something you suggested like forty pages ago coming to fruition haha
