Mainly forthcoming FX fixes from TMWNN. He announced doing so in his own threat and what he was doing seemed like I may as well just make it an official update.
Remains to be seen though, but nothing earthshattering.

If you do borrow that, borrow it from L8wrtr’s edit because that’s where I borrowed it from. (No sense recompressing it twice.)
Well, I probably wouldn’t have things like that be audible, large canon defining stuff.
But if someone sent me “I’m Jar Jar and I’m pooping my pants,” I’d still include it to maintain including something from everyone even if I’d bury it in the mix.

I’ll take it. Even though I would personally love a sort of fan editing curtain call of variations of people’s screen names as insert characters.
And hey, if you want your own voice I can make it part of the background chatter that isn’t audible clearly at all. There are dozens of audio clips in there and you can only clearly hear a small subset.
Also, anyone reading this who has not yet sent me an audio clip of them ‘signing in’ or whatever for the end battle, please do so that I can include you. I would love to have had every single person who contributed to this project be shoved into that sequence!
Faraday, thanks for that writeup, and it’s very affirming that the movie worked that well for you. I take it as a testament to the process we employed; it’s not like we all foresaw this and then made it happen, we just did what was good to do as we were able to.
Kinda makes me want to watch the Rey Nobody version of the movie, which I had not sat down and done yet. Well, there goes my evening I guess!
EDIT: Also, I want to assure you that I have not forgotten about V3, but I have been chipping away at the tedious aspects of preparing another project for release. Updating my edit of ROTS for what I fully intend to be the last time. Then at the moment, Ascendant V3 is the thing it makes the most sense to focus on next. (My TPM edit is due one final update, but The Man With No Name is working on FX for it as well as a new source I’d like to use for ANH.)
Best of luck, and I hope you succeed to your own satisfaction. I could say the same about myself having three go-rounds, except that 2 and 3 just happened contiguously.
Hope that you can scratch that itch and feel good about how it turns out.

Remove Han and Lando’s pre-existing friendship in ESB. Use an AI voice in just a few spots to recharacterize Lando as angry that Han, a known rebel figure, has shown up at his city.
Oh, and change his name to Rando.
Yeah, they’ll all three probably be updated again sometime or other. The OT is the most ripe for improvement in my mind out of my SW projects.

Thanks! I’m always glad to hear they’re being enjoyed. Happy Revenge of the 5th.

And if I did, could I use your Semi-Specialized edition as a basis?
the only film I’d like to make a fan edit of at this point is this one.
Does anyone know a way to have something auto-generate garbage subtitles like the ones you see on YouTube? If so, and if someone could generate them for the finalized episodes, perhaps they could be divided up among volunteers to take a few episodes each and proofread them along with the video/audio.
But yeah… I certainly wouldn’t wanna handle a behemoth task like that for the whole series, using the methods I usually use for my own stuff.
My stool is dark!
Replace Grievous’ coughs with belches and burps. And his lightsabers with beer bottles.
When Yoda surveys the fallen Jedi in the Temple after Order 66, he has a mild break from reality when he notices brain matter from a young apprentice and chuckles before saying, “Truly wonderful the mind of a child is.”
No, I’d have to meticulously redo most of the audio side of the projects, which I’m frankly not willing to do.
But I do provide lossless audio output for all my projects, and this is how others have made some foreign language tracks, by editing these.
Sound good to me! I’ll see how they play within the short screentime for that snippet.
Hehe, yeah, I like that direction. Something like…
Trooper: Who are you? (or What is this ship doing here?, or something like that)
3PO: I am here to negotiate release of a prisoner.
Trooper: We don’t negotiate w–
Rey destroys their lives in the blink of an eye with a deadly sci-fi weapon
3PO: It seems diplomacy is not our specialty. (or something to the effect that negotiations will be harder because of her behavior; Seems that negotiating is not our objective.)
Rey: Where are the others?
3PO: They haven’t come back (generated with AI in case it doesn’t match what we just heard)
I loved those CD-ROMs so much.

^ It sets up 3PO not recognizing his “best friend” when he returns without his memory. I don’t really see changing it.
And how’s this for another idea at that little snippet?
Trooper: What’s your operating number?
3PO: Oh, I don’t have one. I’m just here to cause trouble.
Trooper: Then why are you–what?"
