Oh, cool. I didn't understand that you agreed, but I think your line really does make it more justifiable. But I'll still put it in the vote, since both you and MrInsaneA both at least once thought it was the way to go. I think your last sentence answered mine and everyone's concerns though: if the Eclipse is escorted by several other Star Destroyers that stay, it would make more sense for the Eclipse to depart by itself. Good call, Ron.
D please do me a favour let me finish this complete rough cut before you put anything else up for vote... I always feel like I'm racing against the clock to get things done I'm hoping I will actually have it done today or later in the week...
I am asking this because I want to watch the daneditors version too and perhaps take some inspiration from this... Infact I already have a bit... The inclusion of the music piece Luke and Leia at the end.
There is 3 other cuts I wish to check but I may just have a go without watching dan editors take because of time restraints regarding cutting Obiwan and luke "A certain point of view" lines C3PO dialogue with Bib Fortuna Jabbas palace, cutting tydirium differently and it's passage to endor to make it more tense perhaps
I have cut the scene with wicket and leia down, made it less patronising but not removed it because I feel it's important to show that Ewoks are not just stupid teddy bears there is some sense to this scene.
So I have been collecting resources to expand the space battle a bit for this rough cut from your take for placeholders aswell as do a new ending I am resolving my idea about luke telling leia on the bridge she is his sister during the celebrations practically the same setting what luck hoping it will add to the end and resolution of my take... And actually sway peoples opinion on what I still feel is the best idea for ROTJ ever :)
I am planning also to show the celebrations around the galaxy where it would normally roll credits and then cut back to ships leaving Endor and joining the fleet then into hyperspace roll end credits I will be removing the ewok JW score from the credits and replacing with across the stars.
So don't think I'm disregarding the script you have worked so hard on I will be merely providing you with a What about this? Aswell as my final rough cut...
I will announce when it's done and if any of you would like to see it please PM me Darth Ender I will send you a copy regardless for your reference. I will cut some of the ideas and compile in a post for ideas too
