The Rise of Skywalker: Ascendant (Released)

I’m not at all ruling out a shot of Vader‘s castle to open us up on Mustafar. However, I think at worst it would be just fine to have the castle show up in the background. I think that’s a good inclusion even on its own.

For the Rogue One establishing shot, I think it’d almost need to lose the lava flow to fit in with how the location is portrayed as healing or growing trees now. If there can be chinks or pieces crumbled off, even better. Now, I don’t know if that’s even possible to do. But if it is, I think that may it really feel like it belongs in the scene. We’d follow three TIEs from space and through a couple establishing shots and onto Kylo.

The castle doesn’t need to be seen with forest around it, but I’d feel better about it without lava.

EDIT: I just looked into the castle on Wookieepedia, and noticed it’s located on the Gahenn Plains. Made me smile.
Gahenna, of course, being a literary ancestor to HELL as we know it. A vale of burning flesh and refuse.

The files on the drive no longer have a “version” i’m guessing since it’s a finished work (Until some hair gets sorted out 😉 )

I just want to know if I have the latest one, workprint 6.0.1 . Because try as I might, I can’t download from the drive right now, even with every work around I know.

jedit: i feel like it can’t be since my file is 9.16gb and the 720p on the Drive is 11gb.

The version identifier is in the readme for each one, so that’s how you can tell. Also, see the FAQ at the top level for some tips.
