Yeah the game’s graphics are just next level stuff. I believe there’s a cinematic option that let’s you play around with the camera, creating different scenarios.
A useful tool.
Yeah I’d say go for it. With a workprint it helps to convey the changes holistically, making it easier to give back feedback.
I’m digging the cut list. looking forward to seeing how it all translates on screen.
Specially intrigued by how you’ll pull off the opening scenes:
-Insert Nasa blue planet clip
-Add Rey meditation scene
-Create new scene with Leia talking to Luke about Reys training
-Cut to Luke from TLJ night scene
-Insert Lukes death scene from TLJ (switch day to night fx)
I really like the music choice, it just screams Mustafar.
A combination of the troop assault and the establishing shots from this thread would really give the scene its due introduction.

This guy’s Mustafar test from the radical redux thread is amazing.
Hello There! here is an unfinished test to place the battle of Mustafar in TLJ, I have an idea behind my head with the voice of Vader, so that he guides Kylo to him to link the line “finish what you started” with the he story of Palpatine pulling the strings, to me it is more important that this revelation is made just after the death of Luke.

Incredible. The use of the stormtrooper assault from battlefront 2 footage is bloody genius.
Whopper.
Oh nice! Just watched, another great video mate.
I think it’s worth experimenting with having Kylo with his helmet on during the Exogol scene, you get alot more dialogue options to play with that way and prior to that you could have him reconstruct it on Mustafar.
Enjoy your pizza!
Some useful references for those interested in changing the colour of Exogol.

I can now finally watch that scene without skipping it completely.

I think if we’re to have Kylo on Tatooine this would be a feasible way of doing it. We could have Kylo’s ship parked beside the homestead, creating anticipation for him to appear. This way you could get away with replacing the ghosts with Kylo. She looks to her right, smiles at kylo, he looks back at Rey, shot of Rey and Kylo silhouettes gazing at the twin suns, add the ghosts of Luke, Leia and Han for good measure.
Fin.
Edit: You could even have both the Falcon and Kylo’s ship take off towards the sunrise in separate ways.

I hope you’re right but it doesn’t explain Disney clamping down on everything to do with deleted scenes. I guess what I’m getting at is that there must be fire under the smoke.
They probably made two different films with all the reshoots they did.
The only thing I would change though is the implication that Han’s just a memory, I personally didn’t like how he just forgives himself and suddenly he’s good again.
He’s interacting with the memory though…the idea is that Leia is basically making him re-live it because he felt so torn in TFA. He claims Han’s death set him free but you can tell he still has remorse. And he couldn’t pull the trigger on Leia in TLJ either. There’s still good in him apparently. Personally, I’m more a fan of irredeemable Kylo in the DOTF script, but TROS is what we got, so we need to make it work. If Kylo were to be redeemed, what’s the best and most feasible way to do it…? I just think it’s more impactful that Leia’s sacrifice had a bigger hand in his turn. Not just, ‘Well, Rey healed me and now my mom is dead. Oh, and there’s dad’. When I saw that in the theater for the first time, it didn’t land with me at all. Is his redemption earned regardless of how we edit this? That’s debatable. But Leia being the instrument here in making him re-face his hardest decision seems to have the most impact. And it gives more justification for why Rey would heal him. She senses it. Otherwise, why would she heal the guy that was going to kill her just seconds earlier…? It’s because she still feels he can come back to the light and is giving him that chance. Leia was trying to show Kylo that, as well…that it’s never too late to reject the dark path.
Anyway, that’s my two cents…just a visual suggestion, but Hal is free to go in the direction he feels is best. It’s primarily his flick after all as the editor/director. 😃
I see your point, I just prefer it if the nature of Han’s appearance was left ambiguous while still implying that Leia was a part of it. Leaves more place for the imagination.
TRoS had a cut subplot of Rey building her lightsaber throughout the movie:

Wow I never thought this idea would translate well on screen but you proved me wrong, now the scene is so much more impactful.
The only problem with the alt shot is that there should not be any rocky mountains in the background, they were removed in post in the rest of the shots.
Took a shot at removing the mountains for the alt-take “Rey Skywalker” shot (at 20 seconds in).

Seamless.
One thing that I can’t unsee is the road with the few cars on the top left corner of the forest.
Poe praying to Leia. (That’s not sarcastic, he’s interceding to her for help even if it’s symbolic; we all do it.)
Poe a hispanic Catholic drug smuggler?
They really had it in for this guy with the stereotypes😂
Like this? (0:31) https://youtu.be/dFG0YgxEN2M
I think a combination of shot 2, Chase Adams’ establishing shots https://youtu.be/bVM5aOUbRdk and Vader’s Castle would work perfectly.
Is there a 1080p version of this anywhere? Love those extended tree shots.
