The Clone Wars x Revenge of the Sith (v2 Released) [4K HDR/SDR]
Time

Update: Version 2 is now finished!

The new version is available in 4K HDR and SDR, with 5.1 Audio and English subtitles. Apart from the quality upgrades, I have made some improvements:

  • created my own Opening Crawl
  • improved nearly every transition
  • fixed some continuity errors
  • edited Palpatine attacking the Jedi (faster, more ferocious)
  • a soundtrack change for the credits
  • various minor dialogue improvements

I also made a video that showcases every change. Unfortunately there were copyright issues with youtube, that’s why it’s available here: https://odysee.com/@Utinni94:d/swtcwxrots:1.

If I already shared the previous version with you, the new ones should be in the same folder. Otherwise just reach out to me again.

Watched it last night and as someone who has watched this movie over and over since i was a kid. All i can say is you made it even more of a masterpiece. The intertwining of the separate storylines leading to the tragedy of Anakin Skywalker was amazing. Getting the to final duel between Anakin and Obi Wan felt earned and so rewarding. Well done!!!

Thank you for your comment! It means a lot to me. I’m glad you liked it

Attack of the Clones 'Sanded Down' (TPM Extension) (Released)
Time

Star Wars: Attack of the Clones ‘Sanded Down’ (TPM Extension)

DISCLAIMER: This is an extension and modification of Octorox’s Attack of the Clones ‘Sanded Down’ edit, which is reflected in the title and artwork. While he wasn’t involved in the creation of this version, I have his permission to share it with you.

Introduction

Hello there,
This edit builds on another already great version of AotC, with the goal of turning it into the starting point for the prequels — essentially allowing you to skip Episode I (TPM) entirely. To achieve this, I placed the Darth Maul fight from TPM and a scene from Kenobi before the Star Wars text crawl. Beyond that, I made only a few minor adjustments like reintroducing some scenes I felt were missing from the original edit. Here is a video showing some of the highlights incl. the new opening scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPzEN3col-E

I’m happy to hear about your thoughts and feedback in the comments. For pure link requests, please send me a PM.

Intention

My vision for the prequels is for them to be entirely centered around the clone wars era. My version of the prequels consists of the Clone Wars TV Show (my preferred viewing) bookended by two movies: This one and my other edit The Clone Wars x Revenge of the Sith.

AotC is a good starting point. However, by not watching TPM, you would miss the cool fight scene with Obi-Wan, Qui-Gon, and Darth Maul. Also, Anakin and Obi-Wan’s character introduction in AotC is very weak. To solve both things, I had the idea to begin with the Darth Maul fight. At the end of that sequence, Obi-Wan promises Qui-Gon that he will train ‘the boy’. The next scene is from the Kenobi series and shows Obi-Wan and Anakin starting a training session. By adding these scenes, we achieve so much in so little time: From the perspective of a person that has only watched the Original Trilogy before we see that the Jedi are at the height of their power, conveyed through the fast-paced lightsaber fight; we see Darth Maul, learning that the Jedi have enemies using the Dark Side; we see the maneuver that Obi-Wan pulls off to defeat Maul (mirroring what Anakin would later try to do in RotS); we also learn that there is a boy who is the chosen one and who will bring balance, and that Obi-Wan promises to train him. The next scene conveys that he kept his promise and we see this ‘chosen one’, and it is apparent that this is none other than Anakin Skywalker aka Darth Vader. The short conversation between Anakin and Obi-Wan also establishes their relationship quite nicely.

I guess you already know that AotC is very flawed and there are countless edits that address these flaws. The reason I went with Octorox’s Sanded Down, is that it is my favorite since it combines some of the best ideas from other edits.

Special Thanks

Of course, big thanks to Octorox for his Sanded Down edit and also the creators of the edits that his was based on (namely The Approaching Storm by Hal9000 and The Republic Divided by L8wrtr).

Additional Info

  • 1080p (~4GB)
  • Runtime: ~110 min

Changes

The following is a list of changes made to Star Wars: Attack of the Clones ‘Sanded Down’. I don’t know about all the changes in itself but you can read more about it here. Generally speaking though, it improves the pacing by cutting a lot of scenes and dialogue, adds deleted scenes, makes Anakin less creepy, the romance more believable, and Obi-Wan’s road to Kamino more straightforward.

  • Added two scenes after “A long time ago in a galaxy far far away …”
  • The first scene is the Dath Maul fight from Episode I (copied from The Phantom Edit)
  • The second scene is from the Kenobi show where he begins a training session with Anakin (de-aged).
  • The Star Wars title crawl appears right after their lightsabers clash
  • Re-inserted the scene where Anakin grieves for his mother’s death and tells Padmé that he killed
    the Tusken Raiders. The scene was trimmed, so that Anakin’s statements don’t come off as too extreme. No more talk of “slaughtering them like animals” and “Not just the men …”. I felt this scene was necessary, to get a glimpse into his dark side and to see how affected he is by his mother’s death.
  • Re-inserted a trimmed version of Anakin and Padmé’s droid-factory scene (copied from L8wrtr). This improves the pacing and makes Padmé’s love confession later more believable since Anakin has basically just saved her life for the second time.
  • Moved the original creator’s production tag to the end (removing it did not feel right to me)

Star Wars Rebels Recut - A Fanedit TV Series
Time

I just watched the first episode, and I’m already genuinely in awe of how good this is!
Great job making the story more mature while still keeping the overall tone light and fun. The recoloring is really well done - it might seem like a minor thing at first, but it makes everything so much more visually appealing. I don’t think I ever would’ve wanted to watch Rebels again, but this… this got me excited!

that is nice, are u gonna edit the entire show ?

No, for now, I am happy with just the pilot and the finale. But I have worked out my personal viewing order & episode selection and I want to make that more accessible to people who want to (re-)watch the show without going through all the trouble of clicking through Disney+ just to find the next episode.

I am working on a little website that should hopefully make things easier (and promote my fan-edits, haha)

Star Wars: The Clone Wars (S1:E0 Battle of Christophsis)

artwork

Introduction

Hello there,
I want to share with you one of my earlier edits which strips down the Star Wars: The Clone Wars movie to a ~20 minute-long story that should serve as the pilot episode for the TV show. It focuses only on the battle happening on Christophsis while also introducing Ahsoka. Anything to do with the Jabba the Hutt kidnapping plot line has been removed. Here is a video showing the new opening montage and the transitions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8KbK_zzA0s

I’m happy to hear about your thoughts and feedback in the comments. For pure link requests, please send me a PM.

Intention

Star Wars: The Clone Wars is a movie that looks like mashup of multiple episodes with different story lines that vary vastly in narrative quality. The main plot is about the kidnapping of Jabba the Hutt’s son, and it has never been enjoyable to me. So much so, that on my rewatches of the show, I would only watch the first ~25 minutes, just to get Ahsoka’s introduction and the first main battle. However, even the first part has mentions of Jabba’s son’s kidnapping, and especially for a first-time viewer, it would be weird if that plot-line never resolved. That’s why I wanted to create something that truly never mentions that plot line. Besides cutting out these specific scenes, I made a new introduction sequence from scenes and narrations from other Clone Wars episodes. In general, this new beginning also makes for a much better introduction scene for Anakin and Obi-Wan as we are dropped right into the action. The result is a ‘short film’ that has the runtime of a standard episode and acts as a good introduction to the Clone Wars TV show.

Together with my other edit Star Wars: The Clone Wars x Revenge of the Sith it bookends the TV show quite nicely. I have made my own episode order which you can check out here: https://clonewars-viewing-order.streamlit.app/

Additional Info

  • 1080p (~630MB)
  • Runtime: ~23 min
  • English subtitles (Big thank you to Bored at 3AM)
  • The audio quality isn’t perfect

Changes

  • Changed the introduction sequence by using the narration and scenes from S1:E16 The Hidden Enemy, as well as scenes from S2:16 Cat and Mouse, and the movie itself. All three belong to the same story arc, which is why it works well. The narration also fits perfectly, since Anakin’s attack maneuver could be considered part of the “daring ambush” that is mentioned in the narration.
  • Removed every scene related to the Hutt-kidnapping plot line
  • Removed the scene in which Yularen first talks to Windu and Yoda
  • Removed the first scene of Obi-Wan and Anakin. The story is more engaging when we are dropped right
    into the battle. It also makes Anakin’s first appearance more epic.
  • The story ends after Anakin accepts Ahsoka as his Padawan. Everything after that was cut (except
    for some of the credits)

Have you thought of incorporating the clip on YouTube by Hello There called Anakin vs Obi-Wan Clone Wars Animation? It looks so close to actual Clone Wars animation and is simply superb. You should check it out!

Battle of the Heroes - Clone Wars Fan Animation

What do you think?

That is a very interesting idea!
In my opinion, it would be a bit tricky to incorporate it here, though. Throughout the edit you mostly see Anakin and Obi-Wan in live-action. Switching to animation right at the climax would feel a little jarring to me. Also, I like how RotS intercuts this fight with the Yoda-Emperor fight. Keeping this while only having one of the fights be animated would be odd.

However, I believe your idea would work perfectly in a Clone Wars-Only project like this one for example.

Do you agree?

Introduction

Hello there,
I am excited to share with you a fan-edit I made that combines the final arc of Star Wars: The Clone Wars (S7:E9-12) with Episode III - Revenge of the Sith, resulting in a movie that should serve as the epic finale of the Clone Wars Show. What sets this edit apart from others with similar aims, is mainly the editting/trimming of the RotS parts, and a unique story structure with prologue and epilogue. Here is a video showcasing the changes in this edit: https://odysee.com/@Utinni94:d/swtcwxrots:1

I’m happy to hear about your thoughts and feedback in the comments. For pure link requests, please send me a PM.

Intention

This is NOT another Revenge of the Sith 4+ Hour Cut.

There are many edits that combine Clone Wars with RotS and there are many edits that improve RotS by trimming, reordering, etc. However, to my knowledge, this is the first fan-edit that does … both.

My intention was to combine Clone Wars and RotS in a way that is interesting, streamlined and engaging. Having the longest runtime by keeping each and every scene was not my goal here. Apart from transitions, the material from the Clone Wars episodes were almost left untouched, since they were near perfect to begin with. Changes to RotS include: removing/reordering scenes, cutting/trimming dialogue, a custom Text Crawl, and other minor improvements (inspired by Siliconmaster’s Revenge of the Sith: Rebalanced).

There are three things I want to highlight, that make this edit stand out:

  • This edit is structured to have a prologue, a main story, and an epilogue. Both, prologue and epilogue consist of only material from the Clone Wars show.
  • Order 66 is shown from Ahsoka’s perspective first. It’s more impactful because we as the viewers can relate to Ahsoka more because she does not know what’s exactly happening and how widespread this is. It is only when she discovers the whole truth, that we get to see the execution of Order 66 in the rest of the galaxy.
  • Apart from the various changes in RotS to improve the pacing and narrative quality, a portion of the ending was cut to make the main story end on somewhat of a cliffhanger: The last thing we see is Anakin’s transformation to Darth Vader. However, the birth of the twins, how they are brought to their future care takers, or Padmé’s funeral are not shown. We are previously told that they “are losing her”, but no explanation is given as to why or whether she or her child (here it is never said that she has twins) can be saved.

Together with my other edit The Clone Wars Pilot (Battle of Christophsis) it bookends the TV show quite nicely. I have made my own episode order which you can check out here: https://clonewars-viewing-order.streamlit.app/

Additional Info

  • Video: 4K HDR / 4K SDR / 1080p SDR
  • Audio: 5.1 / Stereo
  • Subtitles: English
  • Runtime: ~200 min

Special Thanks

Thanks to BbqChkn for making this cool Stars Wars Crawl Davinci Resolve tool
Thanks also to @renderdriver whose artwork served as the basis for the one seen here (the second one).

Changes

Below are all the things in which this edit differs from Episode III and the Clone Wars episodes:

TLDR: Watch this video.

  • Mixed logos of both mediums: Disney+, 20th Century Fox, Lucasfilm
  • Soundtrack change for the Clone Wars title sequence: “Star Wars Main Title & A Galaxy Divided”
  • Insertion of a philosophical quote, which is typical for Clone Wars episodes
  • S7:E9 of the Clone Wars, up until the scene where Ahsoka and Anakin separate, serves as a prologue. It then transitions to “A long time ago in a galaxy far far away…”
  • New Opening Crawl recapping the main character’s missions
  • A lot of dialogue and action during the space battle sequence leading up to the Dooku fight was cut (incl. the entire elevator-going-up sequence)
  • More dialogue cuts before and during the Dooku fight
  • Anakin now barely hesitates when killing Dooku
  • Transition from Anakin saying “His faith will be the same as ours” to Ahsoka’s landing on Mandalore
  • Transition from Gar Saxon talking to Almec to bombardment of Grievous’ ship
  • More dialogue and action trimming before, during and after the Grievous fight/escape scene
  • Slightly changed the dialogue between Obi-Wan and Anakin as they arrive at the senate building
  • New scene transition with added soundtrack after Anakin learns of Padmé’s preganancy
  • Moved Grievous’ Utapau arrival and Anakin’s nightmare scene to later
  • Trimmed dialogue between Yoda, Mace Windu and Obi-Wan
  • Cut Anakin talking to Padmé about the state of the republic, mainly for pacing purposes
  • Added a transition from Yoda’s preparation to leave for Kashyyyk to Ahsoka, Rex, Bo-Katan on Mandalore (“You must find Maul”)
  • Added a transition between Clone Wars S7:E9 and S7:E10 (when Ahsoka meets Maul)
  • Added a transition between Ahsoka saying “We’ve lost them” and Grievous’ arrival on Utapau
  • Added a transition between Sideous saying that he will soon have a new apprentice and Anakin’s nightmare scene. The conversation with Padmé on the balcony was cut
  • Cut scene where Anakin talks to Yoda. Instead, he goes from speaking to Padmé about his nightmare directly to seeing Palpatine at the opera
  • Cut Yoda almost getting shot on Kashyyyk
  • Added a transition between the beginning of the Kashyyyk Battle and Ahsoka on Mandalore talking to Obi-Wan via hologram
  • Shortened the pause between Ahsoka saying “Tell Anakin…” and Obi-Wan saying “I will”
  • Added a transition between Jesse’s scream and Anakin talking to Obi-Wan before he goes to Utapau
  • Cut Grievous saying “I’ve been trained in your Jedi arts by Count Dooku.”
  • Cut Obi-Wan’s weird close-up shot (“Oh I don’t think so”)
  • Added a transition between Cody picking up Obi-Wan’s lightsaber and Ahsoka interrogating Almec
  • Added a transition between Maul’s speech to his Mandalorian soldiers and Obi-Wan’s continuing fight with Grievous
  • Moved scenes that happen before that in Episode III to later
  • Grievous’ death transitions to Mandalorians complaining about the republic occupation
  • Added a transition between Clone Wars S7:E10 and S7:E11
  • Added transitions back and forth between Clone Wars and Episode III during the council briefing. I took the liberty to make it so that word of Grievous’ death has not yet reached Cody and therefore also not the other council members. The only information they have at that time is that Obi-Wan has engaged the enemy. This is crucial as it makes the pacing later on so much better. I.e. the “calm before the storm” is not interrupted by a fight scene between Obi-Wan and Grievous.
  • Added a transition between Rex saying “You didn’t tell them what Maul said about Skywalker” and Anakin talking to Palpatine before he reveals himself as the Sith Lord
  • Added some background music to the conversation between Anakin and Palpatine, as it improved the transition from Clone Wars
  • Added a transition between Palpatine’s reveal and Anakin informing Windu (By that time they know about Grievous’ death)
  • Added a transition between Windu’s departure and Ahsoka’s farewell to Bo-Katan
  • Added a transition between Maul meditating while locked up and Padmé sitting by herself at home
  • Removed Palpatine speaking during the scene where Anakin broods in the council chambers. Used soundtrack music to bridge the hole to keep the same cuts
  • Edited Palpatine’s attack to make it more ferocious and fast-paced
  • Edited Mace’s death and Anakin’s fall to the Dark Side (rearranging shots, cutting dialogue)
  • Added a transition between “We shall have peace” and Maul shockingly opening his eyes and Ahsoka feeling that something has happened to Anakin
  • Added a transition back to Episode III where Anakin marches on the Jedi temple
  • Cut Palpatine saying “Commander Cody”
  • Added a transition from Episode III to Clone Wars when Palpatine says “Execute Order 66”. We first see Order 66 play out from Ahsoka’s perpective first
  • Added a transition between Ahsoka discovering that the entire Grand Army of the Republic is affected, and Order 66 in RotS
  • Order 66 plays out without sound effects, only music. Some scenes were trimmed slighlty to make it fit better to the soundtrack. The transition before worked better that way, also it makes the events even more tragic
  • Adjusted exchange between Obi-Wan and Yoda in the temple after discovering Anakin’s betrayal
  • A lot of bad dialogue was cut during the reunion between Anakin and Padmé on Mustafar
  • Cut Anakin saying “This is the end for you my master!”
  • Shortened the end of Episode III quite a bit because I preferred an open ending. The last thing we see is Anakin’s transformation into Darth Vader and you hear his breathing (this ending was inspired by the Phantom Edit)
  • Added short credits listing only the main cast with a new soundtrack before transitioning to the epilogue
  • S7:E12 of The Clone Wars serves as epilogue. This gives Ahsoka and the Clones their own dedicated and heartbreaking ending
