True, I just figured that altering the flow of events enough to have them make it out of the tower and back to the beach to then just have them die in a different location seemed a little over the top.
Which would probably be why they cut it.
005, that’s some good stuff! Have any sources I can link to?
Most of the promo material seems to have been written before the reshoots. A lot of the images I referred to I found in the Disney Movie Rewards guide.
A version of the script was produced where not everyone died before Disney gave Gareth Edwards the OK to kill everyone:

He claims none of that ending was actually shot, but that seems to be at odds with the trailer shots of Jyn running around the Imperial base and beach with the plans in hand.
I think Tim’s statement of there being two buildings covers running with the plans. It doesn’t makes much sense to have the archives INSIDE the comm tower/command center. I believe they had to break into the archives, then get to the comm tower, which may or may not have been the command center. If originally the planet was the construction base for finishing the DS, it would make sense to have more than one building.
There’s also a shot of Krennic surveying the damage on Scarif on the ground, which may be a trailer shot, but why would they take the actor to the beach set if he wasn’t going to be on the ground at any point?
Saw Gerrara is bald in flashbacks and bearded in the “present”, therefore I believe most of the early trailer shots are from a cut that has some Jyn in training and/or her abandonment. The dialog “What will you do when they catch you? What will you do if they break you? If you continue to fight, what will you become?” sounds like training or his final speech as he leaves her behind.
I believe that the TIE on the transmission tower is a trailer-made shot, along with the promo shot of the Rebel leaders crowded around a hologram of the Death Star.
There are various promo shots showing what looks to be Vader and Krennic having a conversation on the Death Star. I don’t believe Vader ever is on the DS. There’s also dialog between Krennic and Vader that isn’t in the final cut, where Krennic is trying to convince Vader how badass the DS is.
All of the early promo material mentions how Scarif is the new construction base for the DS, which I think was changed to it just being a archive. Also the early trailers and promos mention how the Rebels know that “major weapons test is imminent” and they need to know how to stop it, making me think that originally Galen Erso or someone sends a message saying that things are bad, but maybe they need the pilot to find the location of the test. But if they know a test is imminent and know they need plans, why would they be reluctant to send the fleet to Scarif since they don’t have to believe Jyn’s word?
Maybe you should create a thread for your project, because I’m not entirely sure what you’re doing and there are so many threads you’ve made to gather ideas for it. Put it in “Other Preservations and Fan Projects”, keep everything in there, it’ll be easier for you to track because it’ll all be in one place, and it’s less likely to attract the attention of people who actually don’t want to help you.
So Mala’s gotten that bad with his anti-Rogue One sentiments? Dammit, now I really want to read his tripe for a good laugh (but I won’t, 'cause I don’t want to read any spoilers).
Just look at his TFA sentiments and find/replace with R1 words. However, he has not said that Felicity Jones looks like a squirrel or chipmunk or whatever. Yet.
The unused footage from A New Hope reminded me of Ady’s work.
I cheered and leaned over to my wife saying “Just like we would do it!”
When I first watched Blade Runner, I went in knowing I was supposed to wonder if he was a replicant or not. Turns out that I didn’t care either way. 😕
According to Pablo Hidalgo the RO “ending never changed”;
http://www.starwarsnewsnet.com/2016/12/pablo-hidalgo-clarifies-bits-about-rogue-one-a-star-wars-story.htmlA bit odd, considering all the trailer shots suggesting a very different ending, but I’m guessing that he’s simply referring to the overall fates of the characters.
Act 3 =/= ending. I assume he means the last five minutes or so.
Yeah, everyone running from one building to the other still puts them in the right places to be where they are at the end.

I’m sensing a pattern that people who hate TFA also dislike R1.
Well, since this person doesn’t ask for an update every few weeks and wrote clearly and eloquently, I decided to give him one of my trademark calming responses.
I have a question that’s not the usual: what are the “all changes since 19XX” videos? Are they our comparisons put to music or something?
Did anyone see this pilot? I don’t remember her… Was she in the film?
Well, I can’t say that I remember this woman specifically, but I do remember there being a female X-Wing pilot in the battle over Scarif.
This character appears in two photos in The Official Collectors Edition magazine.
I looked out for her on my second viewing of the film and could see no sign of her even as background crowd.
There’s another cut of this movie somewhere that is completely different. She must be in it.
I thought briefly about doing this one next, but decided against it because I think ARH will be more fun to do.
How can I use two wii nunchuck at the same time?
You can’t, and no game would allow you to because it’s physically impossible.
Where ROGUE ONE uses small title cards for planets, you could include them literally everytime a character walks into a different building or room.
Lol.
I love this idea so much that I want you to go chronological and do this edit next.
But if you do wait, I think the opening card should be:
“A long time ago, a lot longer ago than last time, unless you’re watching these in chronological order, then somewhat more recent in time, in a galaxy that’s still far, far away.”
Yes, Edwards finding a can of unused takes in the archives would be completely separate from the original negatives used in a restoration.
So, all the original TOS FX shots weren’t lost forever? Can we get a redo on that remastering thing? 😉

Where the hell did those come from? “Roddenberry Archives”?
Probably not.
Why would you fanedit such a perfect movie which is the best Star Wars since God spoke to Abraham ? You should fan edit this piece of shit called “A new Hope” in which there are several continuity errors.
Sorry, you already used your “shitty comment about a movie most people enjoy” last page. Please find a new thread in which to be shitty. Thank you.
Ady gave it a name, but it’s not mentioned on screen…
Too soon
No one mentioning removing the mind reading monster with questionably CGI tentacles? That’d be one of my only cuts, unless someone can convince me to replace the entire prologue and first few scenes with a crawl.
Sorry if anyone posted this already:
