Link where?

For the static shot of inside Reys house having some flickering lights or the light coming in through the door adjust slightly over time would really help that shot

has anyone got a pm of this edit?

I always thought it changed with ambient lighting. That shot in the forest is very dark, so the blue of the blade is more prominent, but the shot form TLJ is in broad daylight, making the blue appear paler than in the dark. If you look at other shots from TLJ the lightsaber appears much bluer.

I still love TFA to this day

I’m in class right now but there is a ton of Kylo helmeted lines here. Not sure if any will be useful though

If you are going to buy the blu-rays, you HAVE to buy them as a box set or with the 4k separate versions. If you buy the blu-rays individually, then you end up getting the 2011 versions you already have. If you are going to upgrade to 4k in the future then just go for the 4k versions now, because they include the 2020 versions of the OT and you won’t have to double dip in the future once you upgrade

I thought the separate BDs recently made available on Amazon and HMV were the 2020 versions, e.g. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08D723MD6/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&psc=1

(Sorry, probably should have said I’m in the UK)

If you buy blu-ray only you are going to receive the 2011 masters.

I feel like the trailer music would work a lot better during Rey and Palpatine’s tug of war.

“I am all the jedi!”

BOOM music

Until Palps is killed and the music goes back to the film.

My only gripe is Kylos’s hood/robe thing coming on and off between shots.

Which shots are these?

Kylo watching the base charge,
Kylo walking down the corridor towards Rey
Kylo destroying the chair
Those shots we doesn’t have it and then he does

Huh, you’re right. I hadn’t noticed that before. However, this continuity error was present in the original film.

Wait it was?? That’s garbage…

Could I get a link as well?

Yeah, I don’t think the cannon line needs to be changed at the end. The world saved I understand, but as Burbin said the “hit those cannons now” line works with what we are seeing and with what Rose said before.

Do you think you’ll update your edits when this is complete?

Oh my gosh that extended ship shot was beautiful I keep watching it on repeat!! I might actually send in a ship voice now if there is indeed room.

I was gonna post this in Hal’s Ascendant thread but I didn’t want to derail discussions of his excellent edit so here it is.

Alright, I am mad at Star Wars fans again… Did ANYONE really think that they would plan out the three movies fully in advance? The originals didn’t do that… the PREQUELS didn’t do that. OH NO, THEY WEREN’T SURE WHERE THEY WANTED TO TAKE THE STORY!!! DISNEY BAD!!! Get over it! Do you really think George knew that Luke and Leia would be siblings? Things always adjust as you move forward in the process. ROTS, the internet’s favorite meme machine had so much redone in regards to Anakin’s motivations but you don’t see these cry babies freak out over that! (Actually, we do since there’s a FREAKIN PETITION for the “4 hour-cut”).

Are you really going to rage over the fact that the writers weren’t sure what they wanted to do with Rey’s parentage if anything? Remember in 2017 when TLJ came out and RJ gave an interview even saying that he MADE the decision to have Rey’s parents be nobody. He CHOSE that. There was no plan, he had the ability to make the decision. Then JJ decided that it would make more sense in his film for Rey to be a Palpatine, and he was well within his right to do that if he felt it would make the film better (results notwithstanding).

RANT OVER

Such an improvement!!

You should take the link out of the OP and provide it to people who PM you. It’s forum rules to not provide links that go to fan edits

If Kylo’s farmboy body could put his arms to his sides it would be less recognizable as not his body

I can hear the cut in the shot since the ambient noise from the falcon flying through (like the wind swooshing and vibrations of the ship) cut out as soon as the shot cuts to the close up of the console.

So has the Naboo shot been finalized? I see in the OP it still says it needs to be finished.

On Kijimi, the KoR step into frame and the apparent leader says, “Palpatine wants the girl alive. Kill the rest.”

Since no one has mentioned it I need to point out that when we’re on Kijimi Palpatine still (supposedly) wants Rey dead. And during the force bond duel Kylo implies he sent Ochi to kill her. “Why would he want to kill a child?” etc.

The reveal that he wants her alive comes long after, when Finn talks to D-O on Ajan Kloss, and he discovers Ochi was actually supposed to take Rey to Palpatine alive, which for some reason we’re supposed to take as Palpatine still wanting her alive(?).

And this idea is only cemented once Rey reaches Exegol and Palpatine says “I never wanted you dead, I wanted you here”.

Point is that line doesn’t make sense at that point in the story, Palpatine is supposed to want Rey dead, while Kylo wants to turn her, and the Knights of Ren are working for Kylo, not Palpatine, he is their Leader, they only turn to Palpatine when Ben “betrays” them by turning to the light.

“Kylo wants the girl alive, kill the rest” would make much more sense at that point in the story. It doesn’t spoil the “reveal”, it works with what Kylo says in Passana, “I don’t want to have to kill you”, and it would be an opportunity to show Kylo’s bond with his Knights, as he trusts them enough to tell them his real plan, while he tells the people at the board room they’re going “hunting for the scavenger”. This would add more tragedy to their eventual duel, giving it a real sense of betrayal.

“Palpatine wants the girl alive” works to the opposite effect, making it seem the KoR are privy to more information than Kylo, since he believes Palpatine wants her dead, so it makes it seem like they had a direct link to Palpatine and were working on their own, always ready or planning to turn on Kylo. I don’t like this personally, we’ve seen enough bad guys plotting to betray their Masters, it would be more interesting to have the Leader betray his Knights, a bittersweet tragedy that results from his turn to the light.

Crap…

Anyone know if there’s any upcoming re-release of TROS, like how TFA was released again in 3D BluRay a while after the initial BluRay?

Zavvi is re-releasing the film in a new 4K steelbook, but all signs point to it just being the same disks from earlier in the year.

This looks incredible!! Once this is done I can’t wait to see this when its in motion!
