I grew up with the OT. I was roughly six years old when I saw Empire in theatres. My friends and I saw Jedi several times the summer it opened, any time us farm kids could get a parent to gather us up from our farms and drive us into the city to one of the theatres showing it. It took a long time for me to appreciate these films, especially Empire, which I have come to believe is one of the greatest fantasy epics ever to hit the screen. Needless to say, disappointment has come to dominate my feelings regarding the latest Star Wars offerings on the big and small screen. I don’t think I’ll even bother to watch another disney SW movie again. Before Andor, I was certain I’d never care about another TV series, but the quality of this show has renewed my interest. Now I’m thinking I’d like to go back and watch Rebels. I was hoping to come across a fan edit that sharpened the story and trimmed a lot of the childish nonsense. Anyone who has seen a fan edit, or more than one, of the Rebels series and would be willing to recommend one to me, please let me know which I should check out.
It depends on what you’re looking for Hans-olo! I wouldn’t go into star wars Rebels expecting Andor levels of quality! Rebels still is a much lighter and kid friendly story (even when you take out a lot of the more childish elements) but if you ask me it still has a star wars feel to its core. If you’d like to experience most of the show at its best I’d recommend my edit (but that doesn’t mean it’s the best edit or the most enjoyable, just that I have used the most content so far to my knowledge hahaha). I know there are a lot of movie style edits out there which are much shorter then what I’ve done that give you the core story (which is Rebels strength in my opinion).
