I’m on board for option A.
I’m on board for option A.
I kind of get the feeling he originally intended Hosnian Prime to be Coruscant but LFL stepped in on that.
That would have felt more like a middle finger to the prequel era than a wink to the fans lol
That’s what I’m saying. He’s never been a fan of the prequels.
I kind of get the feeling he originally intended Hosnian Prime to be Coruscant but LFL stepped in on that.
I’m confused why the First Order would still have a presence at Jakku after Rey and Finn left. It’s even more remote than Tatooine.
I really like that last mock up Hal. The only thing I would recommend, if it’s possible, is to rearrange the battle so that the first shot of Kylo isn’t that close-up shot. It feels jarring to cut from that long shot of the troops to a sudden close-up.
Everything else felt spot on.
My concern is adding all of these new blasting into hyperspace while in atmosphere shots. The Falcon does it at the end of the film and now Ochi’s ship will too? Atmospheric use of hyperdrives is something that has started to slip into new canon but it still feels wrong and certainly not something that should be overused.
I’m thankful any and all reference to lightspeed skipping are excised just for my own sanity.
Poor Boolio, I just don’t get the hate for him.
I can try to remove “they fly now,” lol.
Oh please do, I thought that removal was a given.
Don’t know if you guys realised but Coruscant has twin sons, not shown in Prequels but its in Return Of The Jedi and Clone Wars.
I’m not seeing any evidence of that.
To add to that:
I prefer to emphasize names and voices that we came up with ourselves. Ideally, it would be a bunch of fan edit enthusiast inserting themselves into the universe directly.
Was it this one? I saw that the other day when I was looking up an airing order list. It intrigues me and I might give it a go someday.
As for the concept of escalation with Batman, I’d say that dates back to the original Batman: Year One that follows the start of his crusade. There’s actually a great list of the comics that continue on from there here. The Archie Goodwin run of The Legends of the Dark Knight was phenomenal.
I think the added glow draws too much attention to them and brings out the seams. They don’t blend anymore. It was much more affective when they were more faded, almost a whisper. It was perfect a couple iterations ago.
I think it’s fine to keep the Burning Homestead cue. It’s perfect in the moment. None of the other alternatives pack the right punch for that scene.
I always thought it must have been recycled footage from a different project.
Or better yet… hold out hope that @jonh can make a Shaw-version of his amazing scene!
I’ve secretly been hoping this is a possibility but I know it’s highly unlikely.
That’s really only true of that first two-parter and that was due to Fox meddling. After that they kept to the intended original airing order. You could easily just watch both parts to that first arc and then continue on with the list without rearranging anything else.
The production order really irks me because Joker’s Favor is such a better introduction to this iteration of the Joker over what you’d get from starting with Christmas With the Joker.
I hope you’re watching Batman in airing order and not in the ridiculous production order that it has always been released in ever since.
I’d prefer it stay blue for consistency’s sake but I haven’t seen the yellow variant.
Sorry if this has already been discussed but have there been any attempts to cut out the Goonies-esque dagger sequence?
I was wondering if it would be possible to edit that scene in a way that she has a vision of the throne room while looking out at the wreckage and then a camera zoom to the specific location.
Yeah, poor Finn.
This is all starting to sound very convoluted. It’s a nice idea in theory but it doesn’t seem practical to pull off in a a simple straightforward way.
I’m surprised this is going up on their Youtube channel. I thought this was a D+ series.
Does anyone have any sound effects laying around that could depict bursting through the ice wall, maybe some shimmer or WOOoooosh of trailing off into hyperspace?
The problem isn’t that the TIE is still operational, it’s that there’s never been evidence that the old models had Hyperdrives and plenty of evidence that they did not. Besides, the shuttle is more specifically tied to Vader’s fate in ROTJ.
In fact it’s always been explicitly stated that they do not in the old canon and the new.
And the original film verifies this:
Ben Kenobi: It’s an Imperial fighter.
Luke Skywalker: It followed us!
Ben Kenobi: No, it’s a short-range fighter.
Han Solo: There aren’t any bases around here. Where did it come from?
