Sorry, I wrote down this person’s actual name but not user name and now I can’t track them down!
Which of you has a wife, Dana, who submitted audio? Would you send me a PM?
Here’s Luuke (impersonating Luke) on Ach To, no longer referencing Leia having known the secret. He just calls Rey out on it, like “So what? You’re still you.”
I added a shot right after Luke sits down so Rey can be seen (sort of) turning her head, so let me know if you feel that works.
I think this is a very welcome change for a Rey Palpatine version of the edit.
That would be kind of funny if he just randomly crash landed and they were still just like “oh hey lol.”

Oh, yes, that’s a wonderful joy. From our own dormant user Lord_Phillock.
Here’s the whole damn thing. I keep it on my Google Drive in case of emergency. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SIoTzgHHlZ__E5ulelrcoRCy8fwzQLQy/view?usp=drivesdk
Rey tells Luke, “You didn’t fail Kylo. Kylo failed you.”
I had an idea for the first Knights of Ren scene when Kylo Ren is getting his helmet reconstructed. I read somewhere that that scene was originally intended to be a ritual, so maybe having all of the Knights saying that line together… maybe with someone being a little louder than the others. I don’t know how feasible it would be, but almost making it like chanting.

He was reading the same thing everyone else was. He didn’t have any special connections or anything.
I’ve been wrong before but it doesn’t seem advisable with what we have to work with.
I didn’t exactly have lots of time to give to it, but it seems like there’ll be a hell of a handful of seconds to fill with reused shots in order to move the Final Order reveal to later.
I’ll see what can be done. I think we’ll need some cutaway shots so Palpatine can still tell Kylo “(The might of the Final Order will soon be ready.) It will be yours to command if you do as I ask.”
Cutting to the large stadium area would maybe be weird since that was kept for later. There’s really not much else to cull from that I am aware.
Interesting idea, I’ll have to experiment with it! It might let us keep that hopeless Poe scene before he speaks to Leia’s body.
And if anyone can record that line for the board room scene and find a good place to insert it, that’d be good. As long as it works, it’s a great idea.
EDIT: Well, it might be awkward to have Palpatine just offer Kylo a vague “Final Order” “might” during the opening, and a subsequent reference to “outdated ships” or whatever wouldn’t make immediate sense. 😕
I wasn’t really able to extend Boolio’s shots through reversing footage.
And adding subtitles feels really sudden to me, and it’s a lot of information to take in real fast.
I thought about removing Finn seeming surprised about there being a spy, but maybe there’s no point in doing so since Boolio seems to be informing him there is one.
Yoto. Yoto.
Good point!
Zeroh made me want the ability to ‘hide’ YouTube channels like never before.

My concern is the first shot of Boolio speaking is pretty short. He just says “From a new ally. A spy in the First Order.”
Might be too much to cram in. But hey, maybe I’ll try that out next and just see.
I know I agree without even seeing it.
How’s this? We’d just need an obscure enough foreign language track. (Nien Nunb is precedent!)
Finn: Boolio, good to see you. You got something for us?
Boolio: The First Order spy says they stumbled upon a fleet from the last war.
Finn stares blankly.
Boolio: There’s more, but no time. Get the message to Leia.
Finn: How do we thank you?
Boolio: Thank the spy.
Hey could I get a link to the workprint? Cheers

For the moment, here’s the opening of the movie, restructured: https://vimeo.com/430217410
I made the “Find me” calls as Kylo picks up the Wayfinder almost subliminal. And when we see the Falcon in hyperspace, I removed the thunder continuing to roll by using some audio from the Falcon in hyperspace from ANH.
Can’t say when but I’ll try to reorder the opening.
Hey, that’s not bad. Subtler.
Right.
Where’s the General Kenobi version of the DOTF?
