What am I looking at here?

For S1E00 I think like some have suggested before. Making it seem like Anakin and obiwan actually don’t hate eachother would be far better and help minimize the tonal whiplash that you get when watching it compared to the rest of the clone wars. I saw some really good clips in this thread that IMo fixed that alot.

Could I get a link please? This is exactly what I’ve wanted in a ROTJ edit for awhile.

Definitely agree, I think the clone line would be benefit the film a ton.

Would also love a link please

A couple small things I noticed while watching the latest workprint.

During the scene at 17:30 onwards, when Poe screams it kind of cuts in at a weird time that feels very edited if that makes sense. I would prefer not cutting any of his screaming at all while keeping the other additions you added.

Very small nitpick here also, at 41:40-41:42 you can hear han say faintly “…out of there” which was cut from I think… Hal’s edit…? + This edit. However like I mentioned before, you can still faintly hear the line and its slightly distracting when you know where to look for it.

Other than that, I absolutely love it. Great movie now, and I look forward to the full release.

Did the latest update add in the Palpatine hints from Ha’s Restructured edit?

Personally, I’d be a vote of simply removing Kylo wanting to take the throne and he simply tells Rey that “Together we can stop Palpatine.” (Or however it can go) That would be more on par with his motivation in this edit because Kylo doesn’t care about Sith (and the old things) and not outright saying kill Palps because of the reveal at the beginning. Not saying that isn’t what he is trying to figure out how to dispose of him, but it keeps the “logical problem” that both he and the audience knows that “Killing him isn’t simple due to that transfer thingy.”

Plus … wouldn’t it be an easier thing to convince Rey of “Lets stop the big bad guy” and not “Let straight up murder his face.” What would a Jedi-in-training be more convinced to with? (Not saying it outright wouldn’t work to “trick” the Jedi, but come on, what would be more successful?)

I also prefer just removing the throne line.

Just an idea but what if you just slowed the tempo down slightly and gave it a bit more bass to indicate her using the dark side. Don’t know if it would be easier than changing the music or not tho.

P.S
Wow thank you Nev for the credit mention, Don’t feel like I deserve it tho only said your work looks amazing but happy to be mentioned either way😁.

Thats a good idea, I could see that pote tally being really good.

Not a fan of having him in the opening crawl personally.

If you ever do TLJ, rekindled would be an amazing base to go off of.

I like the whispers personally.

Yeah I can see it, I just don’t recall anything like that happening in any other movies (thats not a problem though in intself)

One Of my other worries about having more sith eyes is that even Anakin of all people, Only had sith eyes for maybe… 5 or 10 seconds in episode 3, not even when he was murdering children so I’m worried about it being unprecedented.

My only worry is that if we do go overboard on it. It may look more fanedity. I’m still curious to see it though. Loving this newest version.

Is the VFX shot of Darth Nihilus as a background statue behind Kylo Ren being used in this edit?

I was thinking about this today actually, I loved that edit that was posted here awhile ago.

^ I do agree that it is a little brown.

I also like this version better.
I prefer something being a bit too subtle compared to a bit too much.

Before it looked almost like rey got like “God Anime eyes” and went super saiyan or something.

I still feel like something is slightly missing there, but I can’t put my finger on it, especially after looking at other sith eyes.

Overall though I like it.

Could I get a link?

I would also like the eyes to be more subtle. I love the idea, but something with them seems slightly off.

I’m tempted to think it might look better if they only came up at the final moment where rey does her overhead swing towards kylo, but that may not be as good as what you have currently.

Like what you did Sherlock! Only thing that doesn’t sound quite right to me is the background fire and such. The dialogue is great though.

Oh my B, but yeah that sounds good if you do eventually make a couple alternatives. Another alternative I know I’d personally like would be the addition of the box episode. But if not no biggie

Wanted to add that I very much agree with Delpheas about how the chemistry between Anakin and Obi in the 2004 clone wars feels very weird and off. I like his ideas very much.

I will also add that I personally still am not at all a fan of the added bail organa scenes to episode 1, they just feel so out of place and added on to me that it makes the episode feel very faneditey.

EDIT: have to say. I really like Delpheas edits to the 03 clone wars, the only one that seems a bit off is actually the first scene with palpatine imo, its cut off very quickly

Im against english personally
