That explains the fortnite broadcast. It’s basically Palpatine’s twitter feed.

Haha haha! 🤣🤣

Oh my God.

I just had a terrible thought.

Palpatine in TROS is about Trump. Evil came back up from nowhere but don’t worry because “there are more of us.”

Zorii saying “They win by making you think you’re alone!” really hit home after me suing the government last year. It’s 100% accurant!

That’s a good point about Rey’s point of view. Thinking about it, it’s not impossible to combine that idea with the Mustafar vision idea. How about:

Kylo kills the cultists and comes to a stop. Before him is the stone container inserted via VFX (cut the shot of him turning). He opens the box and places his hand on the square item inside. Use shot of him turning and then his environment dissolves into the interior of the cultist’s base on Exegol. After the Exegol scene it returns to the shot of Kylo standing over the box, this time with it open and the Wayfinder still upside-down inside.

This allows for the audience to put the pieces together as Rey does.

That’s incredible creative. I’d love to see that just because it sounds awesome.

Did you see my Luke & Leia scene? I’d like to know your thoughts…

Haha! Well I thought I was almost finished and then someone told me to join this forum and now I’m inundated with inspiration and ideas. 😎

all right! I have patience hahaha.

I really liked the sequence of Luke and leia! so luke survives TLJ!!!😃

Only to have a more positive ending. I’m Killing him straight off at the start of TROS but I’ve been reworking the start middle and end thanks to people’s amazing creations on here.

I also can’t thank you enough for making the amazing force ghost scene. I actually rewatched all the prequels and had footage ready to start working on Qui-Gon etc but you did way beyond anything I could do. I applaud you, Sir!

I need to see your edition !!hahahahh 😃

Wow great work on the dialogue, is their dialogue meant to be telepathic? looks very effective.
In this version is there a reason for why Luke has to go? In the last Jedi he dies from draining his force energy from the incredibly taxing feat on Crait, I just think him dying for no reason would kind of undercut his arc in TLJ so I’m also curious about his arc in your version of that film.

As it’s one of the opening scenes of I’m hoping that the same emotion carries through but I have been looking for other dialogue for loop to say “it’s my time” or something like that. If you have any ideas please let me know.

Did I see someone do a version of Kylo looking over Coruscant somewhere? Can’t remember who did it but it was awesome!

kewlfish said:

Hmm, completely cutting Mustafar seems… like a radical change. I’d almost rather just have a single establishing shot, like poppasketti’s Tie Fighters than not having Mustafar at all. That was one of Kylo’s most badass scenes and it’s where we are introduced to the Wayfinder.

I must’ve reworked that scene aboyt 50 times and I can’t seem to fit the castle in anywhere that transitions well. I’ve worked everything else in though. Troopers were the cherry.

StarkillerAG said:

Interesting idea. I assume Luke survives in your version of TLJ then?

Yeah, I put an explanation in the video description. Still a work in progress bit I like the feel of it.

idir_hh said:

-Insert Lukes death scene from TLJ (switch day to night fx)

I’m still figuring out how to export properly and my internet is being a total nightmare.

I’ve uploaded this…

Let me know what you think.

Here’s the clip of the lightspeed scene removal

https://vimeo.com/419885810

Nice edit, I’m still not 100% on having TIES being about to track people in lightspeed. Just doesn’t sit right with me

The worst one is probably the hardest one to change (“a thousand generations live in you now”).

now that I think about it, with the force ghost, we would have to eliminate the line: but this is your figth

I’ve actually added it in just as Lukes ghost flashes first. Gives me goosebumps. I see it more as “You got this kid!” rather than “You’re on your own”.

Hal 9000 said:

I figure that if the TIEs follow the Falcon aaaaaand scene, the viewer would infer that Poe pulled further shenanigans to lose them (pushing the Falcon to her limits due to the FO’s new hyperspace tracking capabilities) as referenced when Rey chides him for lightspeed skipping. I got the transition to feel fairly natural to me, and I think I would have accepted it.

It’s been an absolutely blessing after reddit. So good to be in a place full of encouraging talent.

I’ve removed that entire scene when Poe & Finn return. That whole bickering back and forth did my head in. I cut straight to the message.

I’ve added a bunch of changes on my “The Last Hope” thread if you wanna check them out.

I’m having internet issues at the moment. Upload speeds are only 0.7mb and I can’t even stream full movies but a friend has been doing zoom events for me which have been working really well.

I’m a little burnt out atm but I’ll let you all know when I’ve reduced all my new scenes to one movie.

Thanks for the support!

idir_hh said:

I’m having a similar crisis haha so many different ways to take this film.

This time last month I was ready to give up after a bunch of crap from reddit and not being happy with my final rough cut but since joining this site it’s been nothing but encouraging and now I’m having more ideas than ever!

So glad I joined and can’t wait to see what everyone else is doing…

idir_hh said:

Can’t wait to check it out!

I just did a rough cut premiere for friends and fans that helped from the start. Once I merge these ideas into one edit I’ll do another one and let you know if you’d like?

Hal 9000 said:

If you end up being able to remove even the TIEs, I would consider whether the later conversation about lightspeed skipping will make sense.

I feel that if you see the Ties before the cut it’s an edit mid scene so it has to be either before you see them after the wall break or keeping the lightspeed scene.

I’ve now got 3 different versions of the movie that I’m working on as I have so many ideas but every time I watch a final cut I just come up with more. I’m losing it a bit Haha!

Hal 9000 said:

I can’t encode a clip right now because ROTJ is exporting but I wipe away from the lightspeed scene after they blast through the ice wall and are followed by TIES. Skenera extended the shot to allow for a smooth transition.

I was trying to cut just before the Ties as I’ve cut them out the end of that scene. I’d like to see your edit wgen you can.

How far in from finishing a rough cut are you?

Knight of Kalee said:

A basic account is free, but you have a weekly upload limit of 500MB and a total limit of 5GB.

Oh, cool. There didn’t seem to be any free options when I looked. It could be good just to share ideas for now. Thanks.

Knight of Kalee said:

Are you talking about cutting the lightspeed skipping scene right? Why wouldn’t it work to delete it in your edit?

I’d really like to watch your version of the Mustafar sequence.

The soundtrack from the falcon scene going into a natural history forest extra scene with added forest sounds just doesn’t go at all. Leaving the lightspeed segment gives me the climactic crescendo that fades really well into the peaceful jungle scene.

I’m trying to set up a vimeo account but do you have to pay even for basic account? I thought it was like youtube years back.

idir_hh said:

Yeah the game’s graphics are just next level stuff. I believe there’s a cinematic option that let’s you play around with the camera, creating different scenarios.
A useful tool.

Thanks for the heads up and all the help with links etc. I’ve just finished that scene and it’s F@£$ing awesome!

Knight of Kalee said:

Just a small detail regarding the TIE Fighters; the First Order special force TIEs (like the one Poe and Finn stole in TFA) are supposed to have been upgraded with hyperdrives (explaining why Finn meant to leave the system instead of landing on Jakku).

I really wanted to cut that scene but it wouldn’t work with the edits I’m doing. It’s frustrating to leave it but the transition just doesn’t work at all.

That Stormtrooper footage it’s excellent!

I’ve just finished my Mustafa clip thanks to so many people for working so hard on this footage.
Absolutely buzzing!

idir_hh said:

Yeah I’d say go for it. With a workprint it helps to convey the changes holistically, making it easier to give back feedback.

I still haven’t had time to set up Vimeo or a Google drive yet but I’ll switch out the soundtrack I’m using and replace it with some royalty free stuff and add it to Youtube next week.

Holy Sh**! I never have time for the games but that looks epic.

poppasketti said:

Alrighty, updated the ties to the First Order models (thanks for pointing that out, my mistake)!

The updates are now in the Master Clips folder on my drive; here’s the reference vimeo links:
Mustafar - Tie Flyover
Mustafar - Tie Flyover Alt

HELL YEAH!!! That second clip fits amazingly. Thank you for awesome work.
