The civilian fleet is already present and prominently visible while Palpatine electrocutes the sky, so that might make this idea difficult.

In taking a look later, A is my vote.

I love D.

Ahem, you should probably ignore that.

JEDIT: But really, A and B are both great.

Thanks for finding a better way to export. This will be the crown jewel of any edit that features it.

Unrelated: Palpatine’s eyes appear to positively glow yellow as he’s electrocuting Rey, despite occasional slight shadows across that part of his face.

Does… does that ever happen any other time in the saga?

When he rejuvenates himself they’re also very bright. I wonder if they could be darkened somewhat to appear that that’s just what his eyes look like, not that his brain is a floodlight.

ALLOL

Is similar banding present in the original shot, too, perhaps?

Imitate ROTS:

For all shots with Luke in ROTJ after he is lighting-ed by Palptine, use deepfakes to replace his face with old Mark Hamill, replacing decades of aging with a single cataclysmic event.

Change Luke’s line in TLJ to read, “He left with a handful of my [worst] students.”

This is wonderful. Thank you so much for taking such time and care, responding to feedback and making many passes. The end result transcends what is usually possible for this sort of thing.

Mmmmmm… cool stuff and potential

As long as no one calls back midichlorians along with vergence.

No you see, Ochi’s knife wasn’t meant to kill her. Just let a little blood so they can take a midichlorian count 😂.

Lol

How do you plan to have the civilian masses tribute the skywalker name, maybe a chant like when the rebels shout “For Jedah!” in Rogue One.

I believe the current idea is having the people identifying themselves and rallying each other through a voice-over comlink, shouting “For Skywalker” and other stuff like that, with the audio provided by forum users.

Yeah, keep sending them plz

Well, that’s the whole movie for you… I agree though if it can be done well.

And I’m not sure how stretching Palpatine out would go, but I like having the movie just get it out of the way.

My brother got me a present the other day: a shirt with Ep1 C-3PO that says “FLESH.”

Also, I don’t plan to remove the kiss.

Agree 100%. But I won’t be trying to keep Ben alive in this edit. Having his ghost appear at the end to hit the redemption message home, so we at least don’t suppose he’s working his way through purgatory or something.

Vader and Luke didn’t kiss.

I think the most we can really hope to do is suggest he has regained his PT memories.

Lol may as well do it!

Glad you’re able to finish what snooker started. Even if the underlying core is still TROS, this will be a better way to consume it.

Thanks for doing this. It was fun to read and I think at least some of it will help balance my own thinking.

“Technical error” lol

Well, in listening again, it’s as good as I think I’d be able to do at present while leaving the video stream alone.

Yeah I love what he’s done. I don’t feel the need to have Rey glow or anything.

God, the audio work around 1:27:50 sure is ugly.
