Awesome! I’ll add that to my notes! Thanks!

That wasn’t my original idea! It seems like I failed to make a proper note about it. I can’t for the life of me find or remember the guy’s name, but it was a user here whose screen name started with ‘Aa.’ Maybe someone reading this does remember and can point him out.

But thank you! This’ll be a treat to follow.

No way! Well, if you happen to remember the guy’s name shoot me a message, I’d love to give them credit!

Glad you’re enjoying it!

Wow, very niche and interesting. Love it so far.

Cheers, Hal! I loved your versions of the Prequels! And I’ll do my best to give you credit when I follow one of your cuts. The elevator trick you pulled in RotS blew my mind!

Watched the first two episodes. They are excellent. Very professional.

Cheers! Glad you enjoyed it! The next episode (which will hopefully drop next week) is gonna cover the Utapau Duel. Here’s a sneak peak of how it might end: http://youtube.com/post/UgkxU3KJT7SZw0XqkPEB-KIVz1RoNZRfdNIV?si=RXnbrLi32x3JDZmP

i think it look a little abrupt, maybe have the way that the original was without kenobi shooting 2 times

Yeah, it’s supposed to be a abrupt to mirror it’s sister scene in IV where Han kills Greedo. It’s a little less abrupt in the context of how the whole scene has been recut, but I’ll go back over that section before I finish the next episode and see if adding a few more frames will smooth it out a little. Cheers for the feedback!

This is some excellent work! As long as your edits include English subtitles for my ESL students, I’d love to try them in my classes.

Cheers! I’m glad you enjoyed it! Unfortunately, I’m not doing subtitles, right now, but who knows maybe someday!

I have the one you’re looking for. My recut of RotJ fixes all of those issues (plus a bunch more). While I’m not planning on making my full recut available, I’ve started breaking down all the changes I made to my recut of George’s SAGA on my YouTube Channel, and I’ll eventually do an episode on how to fix Han in RotJ.

Here’s the link for future reference. It’ll be a while before I make video concerning your specific question, but the latter half of the second episode shows how I fix the scene where Han kills the Probe Droid in Empire, and that’ll give you a good idea of the some of tricks I’ll be using to fix Han in Jedi: https://www.youtube.com/@JoyofEditing

Hope that helps!

UPDATE: Episode 4.2 is now live! - https://youtu.be/SF0DdwLG-CI

Hey y’all, if anyone is interested in learning the artform of film editing through recutting all six of George’s STAR WARS films, I’ve started a series on YouTube to do just that! The first six episodes are up.
