Grand Admiral Thrawn

It would be nice to have Luke say that as Rey looks at the X-Wing. Could work as a little foreshadowing.

Any changes that make the trilogy feel more connected should be encouraged.

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 😉

How many hours did we last before you two started bickering again? We should start a new thread and vote on the winner daily.

Also… have Luke turn into Hagrid and say “You’re a wizard harRAY”

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.

I think reusing the Falcon scene would be great, minus the dice. If Kylo’s new helmet could be added it would be a great way to connect back and show how he is still conflicted, and will only help flesh out Han’s scene later on.

That would be better like this…

"The life force of your bond, a dyad in the Force. A power like life itself. Unseen for generations. Your coming together will be your undoing. And now, the power of two restores the one true Emperor.

So excited! Cannot wait to see how these “finished” copies look!!!

When was That? I haven’t heard from him in ages. I hope his film is going well.

It was quite a while ago.

I did have a pm with him where he said he was working on something. An aged Bryan Cranston has a striking resemblance to Shaw, I think that was something he was exploring.

Luke hitting a Grand Slam and taking out an AT-AT sounds hilarious and it is exactly the type of exaggeration that Luke was talking about in TLJ with “The Legend of Luke Skywalker”

The galaxy in TFA thinks Luke is a myth because of his god-like status.

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

It might be good to have Luke and the walker falling which would explain why the kids are laughing.

Yeah, I’m with you on this. Do you have a high res version of the images you’ve used?

This was not made by me. All credit to Cinefy

It might be good to have Luke and the walker falling which would explain why the kids are laughing.

It’s in this thread! I had suggested it and found someone mocked one up. Not sure who let me see what I can find!

I believe this was Cinefy

That would be nice for pacing. I also suggested some planet arrival/leaving scenes which would be awesome if some talented people here could create them.

The work on this has been great so far. I would love to see the 4k look like this, but I would love to get a link when completed.

I know there was talk for “Ben, come home.” but I don’t know where the progress on that was

Another audio line mix up. This time with Leia and the medal:

I think it plays well with Kylo’s statement before:
“You can’t go back to her now. Like I can’t.”

VERY rough mockup of the Emperor/Pryde scene with added dialogue about Rey:

It was still Palpatine’s plan to use Rey’s father until he discovered it wouldn’t work. But whatever is the easier for the viewer to understand.

Exactly. Now we’re onto something!

Edit: flipping around the responses somehow makes it flow even better

Emperor:
The Princess of Alderaan has disrupted my plan. But her foolish act will be in vain. I want the girl, the force is strong with her.

Pryde:
Yes, my lord.

Emperor:
Her journey nears its end. Come to me on Exegol, General Pryde. The Final Order begins.

Pryde:
As I served you in the old wars, I serve you now.

And then while on Exegol:

“I don’t want you dead… I want you here.”

"Long have I waited… your father… Ben Solo… now YOU will take the throne.”

“Weak… like your father.”

Yes, however for it to work the “Long have I waited…” and assumptions that this always has been the plan needs to be removed.

It needs to be clear there was 3 targets in this order:

1. Rey’s dad
2. Ben Solo
3. Rey

Maybe instead of “Weak… like your parents”, when Rey resists it can turn to “Weak… like your father”

This could work using existing Palpatine quotes to piece it together:

Emperor:
The Princess of Alderaan has disrupted my plan. But her foolish act will be in vain. Come to me on Exegol, General Pryde.

Pryde:
As I served you in the old wars, I serve you now.

Emperor:
I want the girl, the force is strong with her. Her journey nears its end. The Final Order begins.

Pryde:
Yes, my lord.

“Search for the girl. She may be yet of some use to us”
