I know of a few of these style edits going down since the Reborn project was dropped. This was a edit I was seriously anticipating as I know many others were as well.
YES, I had a cut I was already working on, and I even completed it. It was ready for the test audience which consisted of my wife and dog…Then I came across Anti-matter’s Prologue from Digital Fanedits, and fell in love with his vision like a frog loves Skittles. (You don’t know; frogs may love Skittles. DON’T JUDGE ME!) This revelation caused me to completely rethink my edit.
So, let this be my proclamation/announcement/village idiot stutter, that I hereby restart my Star Wars: Redemption edit.
As it says above this will be a trilogy. ANH, ESB, and ROTJ will pretty much stay intact with the prequels serving as flashbacks as usual. As it stands, I’ll begin the film with the same footage as Anti’s Prologue; but it may change after that fact. Check the thread for updates.
Oh, and as for the '09 date. Well, you guys know how that goes. I will do my best to get this done ASAP. I MAY use Anti’s Prologue as a source for prequels as his will be JarJar free, and I do NOT have the patience or the anti-depressants to make it through that ordeal. May angels dance on your belly for that task, Anti. If I go this route, then I will be playing the waiting game for the edit to release. But my anticipation to begin is very high, so we’ll see how long I can wait…Doh, it’s gone. I might be starting tonight.
I’ll be back soon with a more specific and ACTUAL outline for the project. Just let me get through Christmas, and New Years,and my wife’s birthday!
P.S. If someone is using the “Redemption” title for their Star Wars edit; PLEASE alert me to this, and I will change mine. The title is just a way to identify THIS edit.
