Seriously, where did all the PT fans come from? I thought they had been wiped out by Plinkett.

Except that Plinket is a HORRIBLE reviewer. I know allot of other people who dislike the prequels but none of them make as bad of an argument as he does.

He’s pretty much saying what most people say when they shit on the PT so I don’t really see your point.

  1. Rey will have the lightsaber flashback and will run out of the tavern immediately afterwards (no Maz pointlessly explaining to the audience that the lightsaber was calling to her)

I’m sorry but I’m stealing this idea. If I do post it for the public I’ll give you credit though

honestly I think TFA has a very good soundtrack, it was just drowned out

Agreed. Especially when it comes to Snoke’s Theme.

Lord Haseo. U should think about releasing ur edit publicly. I find I agree with you about many things concerning TFA.

Once I see the film again I’ll compile my full cut list for you guys and if anyone is interested based on that I’ll share it.

what main edits would u be making?

  • The Kylo Ren is the son of Han and Leia reveal is going to be a bit less obvious (I’m removing the line “You cannot deny the truth of your family” line but I will be keeping the line “I know where you come from, before you called yourself Kylo Ren”)

  • Add music from the OT and PT where I deem the film can benefit from it though a decent amount of the original score will be intact

  • Reducing the amount of awkwardness that surrounds Finn when he is around Rey

  • Removing obvious fan service (training ball droid, the board game in STAR WARS and even showing all of the aliens in Maz’s Castle)

  • Nerf Poe’s flying ability a bit (mainly the implausibility of the kill streak he goes when fighting on Takodana)

Possible ideas:

  • Adding film grain

  • Color correcting certain scenes (probably not going to do this though)

  • Make Starkiller Base a sun killing weapon that destroys Systems by proxy from freezing (this will be problematic to make work)

  • Changing the title of the film to Star Wars Episode VII: Awakening of The Force

As it pertains to minor things there are just mostly going to cuts to certain lines of dialogue but a couple of miscellaneous small things I’m going to do are:

  • Removal the TIE Fighter exploding in the sand
  • Make it so that when our heroes are spotted in Maz’s Castle the First Order spy sees them and reports that she found the droid and the Resistance droid does so a minute or two later
  • Trimming the on foot chase when Finn and Rey are being perused by Storm Troopers.
  • Trimming the Rathtar scene
  • Removal of the weirder than fuck hug between Leia and Rey
  • Trimming the interrogating in the interrogation scene between Rey and Kylo Ren
  • Making Snoke’s hologram obviously a hologram
  • Remove helicopter shot

…shit like that though I don’t have a full grasp on everything yet.

Even if nobody else likes it or wants to watch it, what’s important is that YOU are happy with it, otherwise what’s the point of making an edit?

Well if you’re releasing it to the public why wouldn’t you want people to enjoy it? But then again he hasn’t said whether this was for the public or if he’s making a personal fan edit like I am.

Jeez, yeah, people are overreacting way too much to some of my changes.

Some of the changes are pretty jarring and others seem to be done for no apparent reason. We’re not saying you should off yourself but you couldn’t have been expecting praise for some of these ideas.

When I say cut down certain scenes, I mean literally cut out only like two or three seconds of the scene. Nothing major.

Well taking out something like Kylo Ren’s violent fits hurts his characterization seeing as how he’s getting a full blown character arc in this trilogy.

I apologize if some of you have problems with my edit.

You don’t have to apologize (with the exception of the street slang thing) but I’m just trying to help you see why a lot of these changes would irritate a lot of people and would turn them off to your edit.

Also, you really should keep Rey’s theme though. There is no way in fuck you can tell me that it’s not a great piece of music and doesn’t fit her character.

The awful troll I happen to be (against my will I may add) surprisingly agrees with this post.

And I agree with your assessment on the ST losing it’s “sound” identity if you completely remove the soundtrack 😄

Dude he was just giving his thoughts, no need to be hasty

I think you meant “nasty” and if so I guess that is a bit harsh but there will be a metric fuckton of TFA edits and if he wants any chance of a sizable number of people enjoying it then he has to be a little flexible when criticism is given. Especially given that quite a few of his ideas are questionable.

Well I’m not posting the majority of things I’m changing because the edit I’m making is for myself. If you’re making an edit for people to see I think it’d be best to listen to the people. No?

Also, you really should keep Rey’s theme though. There is no way in fuck you can tell me that it’s not a great piece of music and doesn’t fit her character.
