'The Mandalorian & Grogu' (Upcoming Movie) - General Discussion Thread
Time

How much money did Disney pay for that “trailer?”

We already know this movie was going to be bad and flop hard. This advertisement just provides further confirmation. So many bad decisions in that brief clip. Oh well, I will just be on the lookout for the next Andor type of movie or show from Lucas film. Anything from the Mandoverse is dead on arrival.

Seems to be an issue with the “mobile site”. If I select “use desktop site” on my phone it works, but if I let it default to the mobile site I get the error message below:

This site can’t be reached
The webpage at https://originaltrilogy.com/ might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.

Your solution worked perfectly. As Jay said, my devices were rendering a mobile site. A simple solution to a minor inconvenience.

I am in favor of doing what is necessary in eliminating all the bots and spam. However, this website now does not work for me when using any chromium based browsers. I tested it on different devices with different browsers.

The site works perfectly fine when I use a Firefox fork browser perfectly fine. This is not the biggest deal in the world, but just something to be aware of. I wonder if this happened to anybody else?

Star Wars Rebels Recut - A Fanedit TV Series
Time

I watched your soft release of this episode because I was very curious to hear the Mandolorian language for the first time. It worked almost entirely very well, including the new music at the end. However, there are some little things here I noticed.

  • Sabine telling Rau to plot revenge was a bit premature before she had full knowledge or even looked at the wreckage. She was only wildly guessing at that point. Also, later in the episode she tells Rau that she is not after revenge, only her friends. The context is different, but still somewhat of a contradiction.

  • A small nitpick normal to the episode, but why does Sabine need to tell Ezra to run from the Mandolorians (“Ezra run!”)? Thank you captain obvious!

  • Having both Supercommandos say “yes sir” consecutively sounded awkward and redundant. Both should make that statement at the same time as would be the standard in media portrayals of soldiers responding to a commanding officer.

  • At around the 18:56 mark, the Mando’a subtitle “let’s hunt” blitzes by too quickly. I had to rewind and pause to catch what was said. I think this happened once before with another line that I missed. This is a nice menacing line that you want the audience to see easily the first time.

I hope this helps, even if it is just a tiny bit.

The Phantom Menace - Streamlined (v2 finished and released)
Time

I never thought someone would make a semi-revisited style edit of the prequels. I know Dazman worked on this movie, but you are taking this to another level. I really liked your work on these deleted shots.

As long as it takes, you are going to leave unique extra restored footage for these movies. Looking forward to it.

Considering your desire to streamline things, did you intend to add any more of these types of shots if they are presumably a few seconds?

The Shepherd King (House of David) (Part One COMPLETE, Part Two in Progress)

First, I want to thank the editor for sharing this. I saw the first work print movie, and it was very well done. I never watched the show, which makes this my first time going through this. The editor really did a very nice job with this.

While watching this, I never felt like anything was missing. The narrative was clear and the pacing of the movie felt natural - not too slow and not too fast. I never felt that I was watching an unnecessary side quest irrelevant to the main plot threads. Everything included was essential for a cohesive narrative. Even the intermission point was relatively well placed to give the audience a nice break point if you were looking to break up watching this.

It is hard for me to say if any changes are really necessary. I know the show itself was well-reviewed. There likely is not much to cut anyway. I probably should watch the show itself to give better feedback for potential changes.

One thing I can suggest is to make your own custom fan edit introduction. Something memorable, and dare I say biblical. It could be anything you imagine. An example is posted in the first few seconds in the video below.

If anybody comes across this, I would strongly recommend watching this edit. I think this edit could draw more interest if posted in other forums such as the fan edits reddit forum that is the most popular for spreading fan edits.

They really seem to be forcing the, “Watch the cute little Grogu baby” concept when that should have died after season 1.

I agree with what everybody else said. This is only worth it when available to stream. With an apparent Thrawn movie coming out, there is not much story to tell here when factoring in the time period between the sequels.
