Ayy!
Ayy!
Someone asked about cutting down some Mustafar stuff.
I tried this, to remove the over the top fight parts from Obi Wan and Anakin’s duel. Just some different cut and a music track in the end. It doesn’t feel like SW, but I like it.
Of course it’s just a rough edit…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2gGk7Q0fWE&feature=youtu.beIt feels like SW and it is fantastic!! My only gripe is that the music covers the voices at the tail end of the Anakin duel.
I don’t mind the music that much, although it’s very not Star Wars, as others have pointed out. It’s better than the original fight IMO, but I was hoping there was a way to do it without reinserting the Yoda v Sidious fight.
It’s probably not possible to do it that way, though.
Maybe we could entirely cut that by showing Yoda on the asteroid meditating. With some montage it could look like he is mentally watching Obi wan and Anakin’s duel.
I actually like that idea. I might try that out.
Frankly, I’d prefer to go the Hal 9000 route and not have Yoda ever confront the Emperor at all, but that’s me.
100% agree, they shouldn’t fight.

No offense but what did you actually do
He’s gonna be remembered as one of the greatest fan editors because of what he’s doing to TLJ.
I don’t know about that one chief
To what degree do we have control over him? We can politely suggest for him to cut it out, and we can remove his post from this forum, but what else can we really do?
It’s in all of our collective best interest for him to stop, but I don’t think we can do anything beyond just asking him and explaining why it can damage the fanediting community.
It’s possible. I doubt it’s going to happen.
How might it be possible to cut down the fight on Mustafar? The whole lava river thing especially is just so ridiculously over the top.
Completely cutting the Death Star would be interesting.
I was working on a fanedit like a year ago where there was only one Death Star, which wasn’t destroyed in ANH. It’s been bogged down and completely restarted from scratch a couple of times, but I haven’t completely thrown it away, if this is close enough.
Frankly I don’t even see why an untouched moon is so unbelievable.
Or even why it has to be completely untouched. It could just be less developed than the Coruscant Ecumenopolis.
A common idea is for Endor, frequently referred to as the forest moon, be the moon of the capital.
Not a bad idea, especially because that wouldn’t be all that hard to execute.
Previous fanedits have moved the Vader/Luke/Emperor scenes to another ship, off of the Death Star. Doing the same but moving it to Had Abbadon or Coruscant is what I’d go with.
Am I the only one who doesn’t want to lose Endor and the Ewoks?
No, but it’s worth toying with the idea. What would this movie look like?
next to impossible, VFX-wise.
That’s Radical Redux!
Very yes
This isn’t super radical redux but is there a better version of the Death Star replacement sequence from the Prequel Fanedit Care Package?
Ewoks be like
Being the second part of a three-part story is woven pretty deep into Empire’s writing, I don’t think it would even be possible to edit it into being the final part of the Originals, at least not without adding significant footage from Return of the Jedi.
Not quite sure what to call this one, TechnoJedi or Save, Change, and Jedi?

All of the stuff I’ve seen from you is pretty good, dude
The breathing is really weird in the opening, it doesn’t feel like it’s coming from Luke.
Did you ever end up releasing it?
Bridge on the River Kwai
Do you plan on calibrating your monitor when you’re home?
I’m not an administrator for a reason but I wonder if it’s possible or a good idea to pardon them but not allow them to post in Off-Topic categories
Is Frink permanently banned?
deleted because I said something, but Jay’s comment, which I didn’t read when I made this post, has a pretty strong counterargument
