TFA: A Gentle Restructure (Released)
Time

During last update there was discussion about adding ā€œkill himā€ to the final duel. As new update is comig? I think maybe you can look at this. I added some generic sith whispers, and layered voices from RotS and both Lion Kings. And also generic Palpatine laught after the duel, as the ground moves. Maybe itā€™s worth a try, as it shouldnā€™t break the sync? If not, Iā€™m happy just showing it here šŸ˜‰

Speaking of that kiss scene, maybe Iā€™m late for the party as V7 is out, but for V6 Iā€™ve made my personal little tweak. Itā€™s just added last few seoconds of Across the Stars from soundtrack, some play with original V6 audio (mainly much lower volume of course) and gentle transition. Nothing special and Iā€™m sure that playing with channels you can get much better results.

Also, is V7 in sync with V6 so I could use my edited V6 audio with V7 picture?

Hi everyone, I was watching latest workprint and I have some loose thoughts about minor improvments to consider.

First,maybe cut just a few almost still frames from that shot of icy moon that once was Fores Moon of Endor? Just before Falcon shows up. It still has the vibe of: ā€œyou know that place, but weā€™re going somewere elseā€. But weā€™re now really going to Forest Moon, and this icey moon means nothing.

Secondly, Reys added(?) line ā€œthe Death Starā€ sound unnatural, not fitting the rest of her sentence about old wars.

Then, trailer fotage of medal. I have a feeling that reordering just 2 short shoots, first Leia laying down, then medal close up may flow better.

Great work with restructuring Luke and Rey talk. Could we try to have a line: ā€œā€¦ donā€™t face your fearā€, instead of ā€œPalpatineā€? That could strenghten the message that Luke and Leia learned from mistakes of Jedi of the past, and they werenā€™t hiding Reys heritage, and Luke gives her quest to fight her own weeknes, not to kill her family.

I would also add more R2 and 3PO prequel theme, itā€™s nice piece of music. And maybee, if Chewie has to survive, maybe 3PO will have his memory permanently deleted? After that his role in the film is very limited. It wouldnā€™t require much work to make it beliviable I think.

Another one is cutting Finn line: ā€œLando will send a distress signalā€. If they didnā€™t respond to Leia they will not respond to Lando. It could flow better this way:
ā€œā€¦take the Falcon to the Core systems.
-We have friends thereā€
Like people are already fighting there and need just leader to unite them and show way to Methanol. Exagol. Not to encourage them to start fighting. There were already some changes in this direction and it could strenghten that message.

And two last thing, bigger but they rather donā€™t pass.
Silent duel is realy slow and blank. Putting Samuel Kim mashup of Battle of the Heroes and Duel of the Fates is realy lighting it up.

And there is no chance to have this cute look from Poe to Finn instead of Zori? šŸ˜ƒ

Great work all of You guys. We are on the verge of greatness. We are this close.

I want to remind some neat idea of simple restructuring to make beggining of the film feel smoother and calmer. We can have Rey training scene following the Senate and Kylo conversation when they mention her, then after Falcon is mentioned we witnes this mission. This way, I think, movie flows more natural and has logical starting point, as in ANH where we follow droids to learn another pieces of a story.

It should also give more freedom to opening crawl cos both Rey and Falcon mission will be mentioned in the movie right before we see them. It should work regardless of shortening Falcon scene, restructuring Kylo vision, Palpatine lines or finding a wayfinder.

There are some rough concepts of tranzitions that I made some time ago testing some awsome ideas from this forum.

The Senate mentions Rey:

As for radio line, we could have it moveing only slightly, indicating only radio noise and not direct transmission of Palpatine voice while keeping the same audio.

An in this firs cave whispers scene, you could add Palpatines ā€œReyā€ from ā€œOh, Iā€™m AFRAID the deflector shield will be quite operational when your friends arriveā€ when Reys hand is shown touching the ground, just before she says ā€œItā€™s calling meā€.
