I don’t think it’s an issue. Luke’s journal was among the Jedi texts Rey took, the rest of which were ancient. No contradiction.

And Luke technically never said he didn’t read the books. More likely Luke read them at some point, but perhaps decades ago, and has not remained devotional.

I agree, although it’s a fair point. It feels slightly incongruent at first blush, but there were multiple “texts” in “that library.”

I sat down to see if I could possibly get that transition to sound any better, since I agree it’s probably the worst out of the whole fan edit. The trouble is I can’t really replace the music since there is subtle foley that would be very hard to replace.

Here’s a fresh attempt at it. I think it’s fundamentally the same, though maybe a little smoother as I let the outgoing music stay strong for longer. If this feels like an improvement, I could reissue the edit with just the audio track being replaced. It is utterly beyond my means to reissue any of the prequel edits with any visual changes anymore.

Let me know what you think.

Forgive the bump but I wanted to make sure people saw this recent post since most of this thread is people asking for links, including the last couple.

I think jonh has not been seen since presenting that clip, but had said he’ll provide the footage at some point. Should be easy to slot in once he does.

I still don’t have strong feelings about the “death of her son,” though I feel that truncating it to merely “sensed the end of her Jedi path” isn’t something I want to do. I’m probably going to leave it as is.

Could R2 speak in gameboy Pokémon cries?

This joke might not land, but maybe instead of Leia R2 projects a Hypno. Y’know, to ‘make Luke change his mind’? (Or Drowsee from that episode of the anime where he’s hooked up to a broadcast thing.)

I presume the bombs at the start of the movie could be voltorbs or electrodes?

Jesus. Can’t wait to get really drunk or high and watch this.
