I thought the last one sounded perfect, and I think this one does too. Will be happy to use whatever you end up happy with.
You talked me into it!
I really think that “Captain Hux” sounds great. We wouldn’t have thought anything of it in the theater.
Having Hux identified by name is a subtle little thing where the movie makes sure we know his name. It’s a “I’m Qui-Gon Jinn” or “Sit down, Legolas” thing.
It is the only time the film mentions his name. That’s a pretty minor thing, though.
^ No news since last check-in about the crackly saber.
Wow, that sounds great to my ears at any rate. If you can’t or don’t want to bake it into full 5.1, just send me the audio of the two words together and I can bake it in.
Okay, fine. If Sherlock can send me the captain sample, I’ll bake it in.
It does seem weird for everyone in the room to know he’s addressing Hux, though. I feel he’d have to say “Captain Hux” for it to really work.
And that fleet clip is not how it will really sound. I turned down the music and other sounds so that the added fleet voices stand out much more than they will in the final edit, just so you can hear them.
Yes!
General Grievous voices by the Tourette’s Guy.
Here’s a little demo of the civilian fleet, with the original audio subdued to let the comms be much more audible than they’ll be in the final product.
(There’s a shot missing visually, but don’t mind that.)

Has anyone ever tried to remove the yellow Sith eyes from Anakin in ROTS? I think there’d only be a few shots to have to do.
Just noticed that Luke echoes a line from Leia when he tells Rey, “You have everything you need.”

Vader’s mouth is bleeding as he dies.
They already are, yep. Just waiting for the corresponding visuals.
Looks all right from what I can tell.
Here’s the final version of Mustafar Minute’s opening. It has the LUT applied and everything.
“Look what you have made.”

Perhaps. It’d be nice, but at least it doesn’t impact any other changes to make or not make so we’ll see.
MR did also say he hopes to set aside a few FX changes like that to leave as unique to his project, which is perfectly reasonable.
Not remotely likely. And again, the Rey Nobody project is separate from me for right now. Whenever (and in principle, if ever) it is more or less complete and ready to go, I plan to insert it into Ascendant and release it as an alternate version.
Nice! Once I get the final bits and pieces from sherlock and/or CaptainFaraday I can finalize the audio and sync lock the picture. That’ll open the door for me to at least be able to work on some of the other things while waiting on the crackly saber effects to materialize.
Not necessarily in terms of time, but at least logically, we’re getting there!
Consider Mustafar wrapped up for V2. Nev’s most recent take on it is where it’s at. I just need to swap the audio channels and adjust sync to fit. No one would believe that out of everything done for this project more time and words were spent on this than anything else.
Let’s rent out a theater and have a marathon of Starlight, Rekindled, and Ascendant.
Nope! However, the main shot that seems different (the ghosts in profile with raised hands) seems to fit in well with no obvious difference in quality when ripped from his demo clip dropped into the timeline. So there’ll be that.
The other different shot that I recall is Obi-Wan moving his face. However, I found the effect less than convincing so I wouldn’t have included that one anyway. So while having the full clip would be better, we’ve got what we need for right now.
I imagine that being pretty tricky. I’m planning to sit down with Mustafar for what may be the last time tonight, and export something truly finalized.
