Grand Admiral Thrawn

Can I please have a link as well?

It is when a certain droid hijacks a certain vehicle. That should be more than enough 😉

Well, according to them it was seamless and if I hadn’t told them then they never would have guessed it was a fanedit.

However, for the movie itself, they just thought “it was okay and that they could have done more, it felt like they are running out of ideas.”

About to show your edit to my parents who have never seen TLJ, it will be interesting to see what they think!

Here’s a list I put together for all movies that involve Infinity Stones plus required for development as in my opinion it helps with understanding Infinity War the most:

Captain America: The First Avenger
The Avengers
Thor: The Dark World
Captain America: The Winter Soldier
Guardians Of The Galaxy
Avengers: Age Of Ultron
Captain America: Civil War
Doctor Strange
Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2*
Thor: Ragnarok (Sets up A:IW)
Black Panther*
Avengers: Infinity War
Ant-Man And The Wasp (Sets up Avengers 4)

*Only needed for character development

Reign of the Empire

Watched it recently, it’s much better but on a personal subjective level, it doesn’t quite cut out enough for me. Biggest problem is that you left in the kids at the end which now make zero sense in the context of the film. On a technical level it was masterful as always though.

I used to agree with you, but just assume a passage of time. The kids don’t have to be from Canto Bight, they can just be kids anywhere inspired by Luke.

It’s so awesome to be listed in the “Special Thanks”. Great work on another quality edit Hal! Here’s to Episode IX hopefully not needing one. But maybe a certain Solo movie… 😉

What extractor are you using? For Hal’s TFA edit the only one that worked correctly for me was 7Zip. Try using that one as it may help because I had that same problem beforehand.

Cannot wait! A few friends of mine still haven’t seen TLJ yet and I convinced them to hold off for your cut. It’ll be a fun viewing party.

Any progress updates? I’m guessing it’s close to release if all that was left was Dr. Dre’s color correction.

Something for you to consider:

At the celebration at the end with the soldiers that replaced the matte where you added in the cameos for you and George there is around 4 rows of soldiers on both sides, but in the next shot with the 3 guys walking down the aisle, there are only 2 rows of soldiers on both sides. A small nitpick that would be cool if you could fix it.

Just to review Hal, how is the structure of the film changed with the added deleted scene of Luke Mourning?

Rey Confronts Luke
Luke Has A Moment
Out of Hyperspace with Leia
Poe and Finn Jacket Scene
Leia Slaps Poe
Luke’s Daily Routine

I’m considering getting the Kessel Run Falcon myself.

“Star Wars Only Version” of the Thread

That’s why it shouldn’t have been a “Solo” movie…

Smithers said:

That’s like one of my major issues, Han bounced back and forth from coward to Mr smug dude but never actually developed or changed…

I didn’t mind that because that’s how he was at the start of ANH, his arc is there, not here.

There were groans in my theater during her “equal rights” joke, and there were cheers when L3 died.

Agree on all these exactly what I thought except Han should shoot 1st that scene was a good character builder.

He still should shoot first, I’m saying when Beckett move his hand towards his gun Han shoots then and doesn’t let the conversation go longer.

Star Wars
The Empire Strikes Back
Return of the Jedi
The Force Awakens
Rogue One
Solo
The Last Jedi
The Phantom Menace
Revenge of the Sith
Attack of the Clones

First things I noticed:

Remove opening and “unneeded” text
(A long time… straight to the action)

Trim slug lady at the beginning to have less humor

Recut so Han says his name is “Han Solo” not just Han

Trim overly quippy dialogue from Han throughout the film

If possible, remove Chewie subtitles, we never needed them before and we don’t need them to make the scenes work

Keep, but trim down L3 politics… god some of them were “forced” 😉

Trim over-the-top space monster moments

Cut it so as soon as Beckett goes towards his gun Han shoots him

Nah, leave it out. It makes him sound childish.

So I took a shot at removing the latter part of Snoke’s dialogue (“I cannot be betrayed…he kills his true enemy…”), and here’s the result:

The new music is from Torn Apart, which I think is appropriate here because it’s the same track that plays when Kylo kills Han Solo, so it’s kind a mirror. Just an idea I figured I’d share!

I LOVE this

Welp, I lied! I went ahead and did a mockup of that very idea. This would be about what it would sound like if I did it for real, so please vet it accordingly.

Sounds good. I started the music a little earlier in mine because I thought it felt a bit rushed where the music originally started in the scene. Either way, it is still much better than having repeating music back-to-back.
