(The Rise of Skywalker) Legacy of the Force | A Star Wars Legends Re-edit [Workprint Released]
Time

I don’t know why, but I had a idea a few days ago and I wanted to share it. I love your RoS Fanedit and the brillant ideas. The scene as Leia heals Ben with the Force is amazing, but unfortunately difficult to implement and it works not perfect. That’s why I had the idea to leave the scene as it was in the original. But Leia would use her power to heal her son with Reys help or Reys body as kind medium or anything like that. Leia could speak to Rey through the Force. I have no idea if this can be implemented, but I like the idea.

Snoke’s throne room is actually on the Star Destroyer over Mustafar, not on the planet. The entire background would had to been changed during the throne room fight if that was the case.

Cutting a lot of stuff with Finn was necessary because he’s with Rose throughout the movie. But the deleted scenes with Poe and BB-8 were done to soften the blow so to speak, putting more focus to his belonging with the Resistance and his desire to see Rey again.

Kylo doesn’t conquer Mustafar in either the movie or this edit. In Episode 9 he’s just there to get the Wayfinder and the locals were simply in the way. But in this edit, with Snoke using the planet as his own, I tried to imply the fighting happened because the locals didn’t like him dying and having Kylo take his place. With the Wayfinder, Kylo simply finds it because he senses it.

I’m glad you liked the other changes I’d made though. I appreciate it.

I understand that. But it’s not really important if the throne is on the surface or the Star Destroyer. It’s a perfect new beginning after the crawl. I like it.

I understand why you must cut the scenes with Finn. There is not much what anyone can do. I feel a little bit sorry for Finn.

I understand what you would imply with the Mustafar scene, but it work not so well for me.

Hi Revan. I watch your edit and I really like the ideas. The new beginning suggest that Snokes Thronroom is on Mustafar and I really like the idea. The short talk between Snoke and Hux suggest that he gives Hux the Order to attack the Rebel base. Hux is now much more competent. I love that new beginning. As Luke talk about his encounter with Ben, I love the idea with the vision of Palpatine, what triggers Luke’s lightsaber ignition. And the shot of Vaders Castle, before we see Ben and Reys first force connection is really cool. Cut the whole Chase, Holdo and Rose. But I missed Finn a little bit. His sacrifice on Crait (whitout the kiss) is a really strong scene, but I don’t sure if it works whitout Finns Arc in the film. That makes me a little bit sad. A little problem is the Wayfinder scene on Mustafar. If this is Snokes planet, why he must conquer Mustafar and why he find the Wayfinder. Episode 9 don’t explain that, but in the context of your edit is it a little problem for me. Your explanation with the locals fits not for me. But I like the edit and the ideas.

Thanks for your review Mario, much appreciated!

When I edited this cut of the Kenobi series I did so with the original trilogy in mind.

From watching the OT I never got the idea that Lea knew she was adopted when growing up, probably because George came up with the idea of Luke and Lea being twins when he did ROTJ 😊. When Bail takes Lea to look after at the end of ROTS I always figured he and his wife would raise her as their own child, and only they would know that she wasn’t. That would serve as a much better cover. To me the way the writers went with it in the Obi Wan series didn’t make much sense. This is of course just my opinion but that’s why I cut all the talk about Lea’s real parents.

I cut the Vader Kenobi fight short because it feels so overpowered when compared to ANH. The best part of the fight to me is when we see Anakin’s face and they have their little talk. So I looked for a way to get there a little quicker.

Thanks for your reply IC. I understand what you mean. But I think kids eventually find out they’re adopted. I also like the scenes between Ben and Leia.

Hey IC.

I watched your fanedit yesterday and I really like it. You cut a lot of unnecessary or bad stuff and it’s a fast paced cool movie. I love the added music at the beginning (Ben look at Luke) and this make that little moment so much better. The chase scene in the wood is now perfect. Same for episode 4 in the fortress. You cut all the junk and now it’s awesome. Same for cutting the evil Lola plot. Cut the great Inquisitor at the end and Revas hunt for Luke works so much better. But there are a few scenes I missed. Ben and Leia talks about Padme, the final fight between Ben and Vader, the end scene on Alderaan and Qui Gon. But in the end its a really good fanedit. Thank you for your effort IC.
