Ah ok. While I’m here I will say that I’m not completely convinced about the Ajan Kloss gameplay. Gives me the same vibes as the Battlefront 2 stormtrooper landing.
Whoa! That’s pretty nice!
What are you referring to? The Ajan Kloss thing or the YouTube clip I provided?
I think that’s a very good point. I had the same thought and have looked on and off for a better second shot with burnt trees to match, but so far no dice.
What about this (watermark doesn’t appear for a couple seconds at the beginning):

I gave it a shot to turn off the lights

Perfect! I personally don’t think the shot NEEDS anything else, but it wouldn’t hurt to try putting some cracks in the castle. Again, as far as I’m concerned, that should be final, though. Thank you.
I said before that all that shot needs at minimum is to have the lava windows darkened. If nobody is willing to try doing that, I may have to set aside some time this month to learn how!
So the whole I**n Ort*ga situation all over again?
Pretty much. Except arguably worse because of their beliefs concerning censorship (even if it is warranted).
They honestly seem like the type of people that would solely blame the “deep state” if their content ever got removed by Disney and/or they got sued. Even though what they’re doing via donations is definitely an offense worthy enough to warrant such an action and is completely unrelated to that conspiracy.
Do you? I mean, it is Star Wars content, so they don’t own the rights to it even if they made it. Of course we normally ask for permission to use stuff in this context, but it isn’t a question of legality.
I’m not an expert in law, I was just guessing with my limited knowledge tbh. You’re probably right.
That’s nice, if someone could take that and animate some TIES over it it might look great with the forest shot we have already.
As I said, the shot actually has Kylo’s ship flying across the screen. Also that watermark is stuck there, for now.
Additionally, there is the concern of legality. I’m fairly certain that since the CGI was commissioned, by all rights that video belongs to the Fixing Disney Star Wars team. We would have to communicate with them or settle some sort of deal in order to use it.
Context image for those wondering what I’m talking about:

So apparently that animation is already finished, too. By Petrovelly (says so in description). But only viewable on their SubscribeStar. Doubt they are willing to share it, either.
IMO just kinda sucks that this fan editing community’s manpower is being divided because the Fixing Disney Star Wars team is using financial contributions.
EDIT: I realize they likely wouldn’t be able to create that Mustafar shot without that money, but it still seems kinda scummy imo.I signed up just to see that clip. I applaud them for the effort, but rest assured that what we have looks better.
If you want to see it, PM me.
Alright so I agree to a certain extent that the second shot doesn’t look completely movie quality. Additionally, there is no forest anywhere in that shot by the castle, which makes no sense. And I think it would have been better to use the TIES instead of Kylo’s ship.
I did enjoy their version of the castle in ruins, though. And they did say it was only 90% done so who knows if that second shot would improve.
I saved a video recording of this older version that IMO sounds way better:
https://youtu.be/LSFMf3qQwtc
Just want to point out that there is a small audio issue on the latest version of the edit. Right before Palpatine says, “I need your help, son” there is a musical cue that begins to play, at least in the older version I have. However, this is missing in the latest version, making the jump between the deleted scene and the higher quality scene much more noticeable.
This issue is still present in v2. Idk if you intended for it to be that way, but the music just sort of pops in at an awkward point and makes the cut really noticeable.
Part of me feels that Rey holding the lightsabers of the two Skywalkers who helped shaped her to be the Jedi -
holding their legacy against the man who ruined their lives - is more symbolic and meaningful.
It is also symbolic of if Anakin (Skywalker saber) had stood by Mace (purple lightsaber) to reflect the lightning back at Palpatine. It’s about correcting the mistakes of the past.
Lies! There’s no PM in my mailbox!
Sorry I meant I send one to Ziggy. My bad.
Sent you a PM. I was convinced that since Petrovelly made it that it would be cinematic quality but I guess not!
The chorus in this rendition of DotF totally reminds me of the moment Luke snaps against Vader in RotJ. Which has the same effect of giving the scene a feeling of sadness and defeat as the hero gives in to the dark side.
The crackling of Rey’s saber only makes this implication more apparent.
This video explains perfectly why i can’t enjoy this movie with the 'Rey palpatine" plot
Fortunately I don’t feel the same way as you. As soon as we have a v2 of the current edit I’m sure Hal will begin work on a Rey nobody version.
What they’re doing is very grey, legally speaking. Then again, so is fan editing in general. But their methods more so.

Can you add a credit for Harrison Ford? Because he is uncredited.
Most people don’t even watch the credits. Seems like a whole lot of effort to add that for such a minimal effect.
Since you reminded me, I went ahead and replaced the DOTF snippet with the actual OST in higher quality. I put it in place where it was, and extended it backward to the beginning of the track.
What do you guys think? Too heavy?
Looks good to me as well.
I honestly feel that the only change the initial castle shot needs is the lava windows to be dimmed. I say this because the forest could begin further away from the castle.
This is the concept that Cinefy made. Definitely something like this should be the end goal here.
The difference is that one person believes that there still exists humanity in this damaged shell of a man, the other seems to think this is prime boyfriend material.
Yeah I purposely exaggerated the details in that post. Was mostly pointing out that it really depends on how you frame these things.
It’s also worth pointing out that Luke wanted Vader to come back with him, which indicates that he sees him as prime father material now that he has redeemed himself.
