Hello! I’d love to receive a link to watch from someone. This sounds like a wonderful project.

Why not simply follow the instructions given by EddieDean in the opening post of this project thread?:-
 

EddieDean said:

HOW DO I GET THIS?

Please send me a PM for access to the TRACKER SPREADSHEET, which details episode progress and provides the download links. The tracker spreadsheet also has links to the summaries and details for each edited episode, to give you extra context for the decisions made.

PLEASE GIVE FEEDBACK!

I would greatly appreciate your feedback! What did/didn’t you like? What worked/didn’t work for you? I’m especially interested in how the Maul/Mandalore content works seeded throughout, and how Ahsoka’s overall journey lands - I’ve given both of these particular focus.

<em><strong>ANDOR</strong></em> - Disney+ Series - A General Discussion Thread
Time

Join Andor Creator Tony Gilroy and Star Diego Luna to Celebrate the Series Finale

Watch the special livestream event for a chance to see your questions answered on YouTube May 13 ahead of the Season 2 finale on Disney+ that evening.

www.starwars.com/news/andor-series-finale-livestream-event
 

'It’s almost time to send Cassian Andor off as he takes his final steps to Scarif in the Andor Season 2 finale next week.

To mark the occasion, the end of a five year journey for the cast and crew behind the critically-acclaimed and beloved Star Wars series, Star Wars YouTube will host a special LIVE Q&A — Andor Season 2 with Tony Gilroy & Diego Luna — covering the momentous events of Season 2.

Join creator Tony Gilroy and series star Diego Luna (Cassian Andor himself), Tuesday, May 13 at 12 pm ET / 9 am PT as they’re joined by special guests Denise Gough (Dedra Meero), Kyle Soller (Syril Karn), Elizabeth Dulau (Kleya Marki), Genevieve O’Reilly (Mon Mothma) and Adria Arjona (Bix Caleen) to talk about the journey so far.

“I think the banality of evil runs through the entire show,” Gilroy tells StarWars.com. “Season 1 is about the education and radicalization of Cassian, about the making of a revolutionary. Season 2 is…you could call it the ‘Winds of War.’ It’s a whole bunch of characters that hopefully you really care about and suddenly there’s that inevitable moment where things have just gone too far and the inertia of the Rebellion and Empire conflict is too strong. It’s coming. There’s no way to stop it. And I think it’s about a lot of people, ordinary people, being pressured by this unstoppable force of war that’s coming.”

Like the special look back at Andor Season 1 earlier this year (below), Gilroy and the cast will reflect on their experience making Season 2 while also taking live questions from fans watching the stream from home. Tune in and submit your question through the live chat for a chance to hear it answered on screen!

Then get ready for the series finale of Andor, with the final three-episode arc premiering May 13 at 6 p.m. PT only on Disney+.’

Original Trilogy vs The Prequels: inconsistencies, retcons, plot holes and discrepancies...
Time

VegetableMan said:

Mocata said:

True, however, I think that quote is simply being used as a bullet point heading. In 1977 Vader was not Anakin so the problem is a post ESB one. Obi-wan isn’t shocked to see his friend on the Death Star because his old pupil was always just Darth Vader. Once he’s changed to be Luke’s father in 1980 there are more gaps to fill. Obviously there have been further retcons since and they meet in a TV series.

I don’t think the quote was simply being used as a bullet point, as OP made a specific entry for it. Point 14 already addressed what you’re saying about Obi-Wan and Vader, so there was no need to add point 15 unless it was to talk about that particular quote.
And since I’ve already seen the quote used incorrectly a few times (for example, I remember seeing people use it to justify Obi-Wan and Vader meeting in the Kenobi show, because “how could Obi-Wan know Vader’s more machine than man at the beginning of ANH?”), I just wanted to point it out.
By the way, I’m not trying to defend the many inconsistencies that exist between the OT and PT, it’s usually the thing that annoys me the most about the franchise!

The quote was indeed used as a bullet point, as far as I can remember (it was written / compiled some time ago) 😉.

The intent / context was ‘how does Obi Wan know Anakin is Vader’ and the evil and twisted exploits being carried out by Vader. It wasn’t meant as a literal Kenobi comparison quote from ROTJ - because as everyone knows… Kenobi has already fought him on the first Death Star (though as Mocata stated above, at the time of Star Wars '77, Anakin and Vader were indeed two completely separate characters; I never like to miss a relevant opportunity to bring that up). 👍

I probably shouldn’t have used a literal ROTJ quote for that bullet point if it somehow led people to mistakenly jump on that - seemingly the context and relevance of that bullet point post got lost in using that ROTJ quote to try and illustrate that aspect of the actual topic; plus the ‘best guess’ scenario as Obi-Wan may have heard news and rumours about Vader and his exploits whilst living in hiding - yet was unable to do anything about it. My apologies for any confusion.

It is also probably worth remembering this is an ‘unfinished draft’ - as stated in the opening sentence of the thread (and it was really never finished; only really being posted ‘as is’) - which is also highlighted later in the thread, too.
 

VegetableMan said:

This isn’t the first time I’ve seen someone complaining about that.

It really isn’t ‘complaining’ to chronicle and highlight issues that fans had with the disconnects and issues between the Original Trilogy and the Prequels, is it?

Hope you enjoyed the rest of it - if there are any issues with the other categories please let me know. 👍

Andor creator reveals scrapped K-2SO ‘horror movie’ episode

Tony Gilroy explains the ditched origin story and why it was scrapped.

https://ew.com/andor-creator-reveals-scrapped-k2so-horror-movie-episode-11728167
 

“Dan Gilroy wrote an amazing, entirely self-contained episode that was episode 209,” Gilroy reveals, referring to his brother and Andor writer. “It was an amazing episode that was like a horror movie.”

So what exactly happened in this scrapped K-2SO horror movie episode that was originally slated to be episode 9 of season 2? “It was the K2 story,” Gilroy explains. “They had to bring this huge ugly tanker ship to Yavin, and there was a KX unit that was trapped inside there hunting. It was sort of like a monster movie with K2 on it. It was really cool.”

As for why the entire episode never made it to the filming stage, it came down to a matter of economics. “We could not afford to do it,” sighs Gilroy. “It was made clear that it was out of the range, so we had to abandon that and consolidate things.”

and later in the article…

“We made as many concessions as we could, but it was still a huge gamble on their part to keep going and still a huge ask. So thank you, Disney, and thank you Lucasfilm. It was lot of tough conversations and a lot of anxiety, but really, in the end, they really backed our play.”

 
^ the full article is very much well worth a read - especially on the changing economics for the Andor series between Seasons 1 & 2.

Also…

In general, simply sending a PM is the default way of asking for fan projects on here (unless indicated / instructed otherwise in the project thread)Reading through the actual thread also helps - sometimes there are kind members helping each other out with links.

❕ I have found a Fan Edit / Preservation I am interested in - but I don’t know how to get / acquire / download it? ❕

^ Fellow members are more likely to help you out if you are a participating member of the community here; you don’t have to be a fellow fan editor, preservationist, tech wiz, artistic or skilled etc… just a member that has made, or is making, an effort.

 

Please note that cluttering up the project threads with ‘link request’ posts is not only poor form - but is also against the rules & guidelines here - the reasons for which can be found below…

I just made a new account so i will have to wait to accept the PM. I’ll comment again when the 7 days have passed if i don’t have access to the PM then.

Why not use that time to look around and see how this community forum functions, our site rules & fan project rules, read through any of the pinned ‘Index & Help’ & ‘How Do I Do This?’ threads, as well as any of the fan project threads that may be interest you - and join in the conversations on here.

Leave some feedback or reviews for projects you have previously seen. Or join in the discussions about the Original Trilogy - or the wider Galaxy Far Far Away. Or participate in the discourse here on film, tv, music, art, books & comics, gaming, tech, history, sports… or life in general etc. Read up on how some of the many fan projects on here are made / evolve / come together - or check out the talented artists’ cover artwork, and budding authors’ stories, script-writing, and re-writes.

Simply becoming an active and participating member of the community on here means a significantly better chance of others helping you out in acquiring any fan projects you may be looking for…

BFI to screen Star Wars 1977 Theatrical Version

Just entered the ballot for 2 tickets today, so we’ll see what happens!

Entered the ballot (BFI Member) so here’s hoping!

Good luck to the pair of you - hope you’re both successful. Please keep us posted how you get on with it. 👍
 

The whole film festival looks really intriguing and if it anything like their previous film festivals you’re hopefully in for a treat. The BFI certainly know how to put on a good show - and their love of film and respect for film fans really comes across.

Even their old outdoor film screenings are something else - and so much thought and work goes into them.

 
 


 
 

Ep. 126 - Inside the BFI National Archives - Film on Film Festival - Special Episode : from the Filmumentaries Podcast.

The blurb: For this early release of the podcast, I’m taking you behind the scenes at the BFI National Archive in Berkhamsted. The reason for the early drop? Tickets for the BFI’s excellent Film on Film Festival go on sale to the public tomorrow, 9th May 2025, and I wanted to give you a bit of insight into what makes this event so special. The Film on Film Festival runs from the 12th to the 15th of June and is dedicated entirely to screenings on physical film – from 35mm to 16mm, and even nitrate. It’s a rare opportunity to experience films as they were originally shown, in all their analogue glory. While at the archive, I spoke with several of the experts who help make the festival possible and who work daily to preserve the history of cinema. You’ll hear from:

James Bell – Senior Curator of Fiction and Programme Director, Film on Film Festival
Chris Stenner – Film Laboratory Lead
Sonia Genaitay – Curatorial Archivist
Martin Coffill – Projectionist and QC
David Jones – Film Scanning Lead

A huge thanks to Kieron Webb and Sarah Bemand for organising the day. It was a real privilege to explore the archive, meet the people who keep the machines running and the prints in circulation, and to share it all with you here. If you’re attending the festival on the 12th, please do let me know and be sure to say “hi”.’ - Jamie Benning.

Grand Admiral Thrawn said:

Last night’s episodes were amazing. I know that is the word going around online as well. Just… wow.

Compelling, wasn’t it? I was glued to the screen for all 2.5 hours; the stories, immersion, tension, build-ups, acting, monologues, costuming, action sequences, payoffs, the unpredictability, the surprises… as well as the usual high-end standards of direction, cinematography, editing, and sound… the whole range of emotions… it was exhausting to watch - in such a great enveloping manner.

The whole series has been a joy to experience - and feel like a big kid again in waiting impatiently until next week’s finale.

All credit and kudos for them sticking the landing with respecting and adhering to the ‘canon’ - with both more recently portrayals of events - and also the long past EU from the era of WEG Sourcebooks etc… beautifully and organically executed.

The whole show is a masterclass.

 

 

Dreena’s message and plea for help on the radio…

 
“Palmo One.

This is Palmo One. This is the voice of Ghorman. This is Palmo One making an Emergency Broadcast on all open channels. This is Palmo One. This is Palmo One.

We are under siege. We’re being slaughtered. The Imperial murder of Ghorman has begun! There are hundreds of bodies at moment.

As I say these words, hundreds of murders Ghormans lay dead in Palmo Plaza. Thousands more on the streets. Mor every minute.

We’re being destroyed!

This is Ghorman reaching for any open channel that can hear me! If you can… if you can hear me… If you believe in truth, if you have any faith left in truth, please, please mark this message and pass it forward. This is murder!

The Empire built this fire! They made this fire and led us to the slaughter. Now they expect us to die without knowing why.

The conspiracy we’ve fears is real! It’s here today!

Imperial ships are already landing across… Help us! Is there no-one who can help us? Is there no-one?”

Mon Mothma’s speech…

 
“Fellow Senators, friends, colleagues… allies, adversaries. I stand before you this morning with a heavy heart. I’ve spent my life in this Chamber. I came here as a child. And as I look around me now I realise I almost have no memories that pre-date my arrival… and few bond of affection that cleave so tightly. Through these many years, I believe I have served my constituents honourably and upheld our code of conduct. This Chamber is a cauldron of opinions, and we’ve certainly all had our patience and tempers tested in pursuit of our ideals.

Disagree as we might, I am hopeful that those of you who know me will vouch for my credibility in the days to come. I stand this morning with a difficult message:

I believe we are in crisis… The distance between what is said… and what is known to be true… has become an abyss. Of all the things at risk, the loss of an objective reality is perhaps the most dangerous. The death of truth is the ultimate victory of evil. When truth leaves us, when we let it slip away, when it is ripped from our hands, we become vulnerable to the appetite of whatever monster screams the loudest.

This chamber’s hold on the truth was finally lost on the Ghorman Plaza. What took place yesterday… what happened yesterday on Ghorman was unprovoked genocide! Yes! Genocide! And that truth has been exiled from this Chamber. And the monster screaming the loudest? The monster we’ve helped create? The monster who will come for us all soon enough… is Emperor Palpatine.”

Bix’s speech…

 
“My Love. You’re sleeping now. You look so peaceful. I wanna be brave, but I can’t. If I was brave, I would stay and do this in person… but I know you, and you’d just talk me around, and I’ve been thinking about this too long to let that happen.

I have to leave. I have to go away. I’m not sure where or for how long, I just know I can’t stay here with you now. I believe what you said. It is a choice. It just can’t be me. I can’t be the reason you leave here. If you ever gave this up for me, I’d… I’d never forgive myself. We have to win. We have to beat them. And I believe you have purpose in making this happen. I need to believe that…

So, I’m choosing for the both of us. I’m choosing the Rebellion.

And when it’s done… when it’s over… and we’ve won… we can do all the things we ever wanted. Everything we’d know we’ve missed.

I’ll find you.”

Saw’s speech (S02xE05)

Saw’s Speech: 90 second video at the official Star Wars youtube channel - www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0hXnZ42eJ0

Saw’s full 4 minute speech video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=d13oAUj4mtY

 

Saw: “I was younger than you are now… I was a prisoner. They made a work camp in the jungle. No droids, no beasts… just men and cargo. Onderon Jungle. Real jungle. Hot, wet, blistering jungle. Old men died fast. Just dropped where they stood. We came back… next day, there’d be nothing but a bone or two where they went down. Our clothes, just… just melted away. So they worked us naked. Two, three hundred men. Boys really. Back and forth until the only thing you could remember was back and forth. Then one day, everyone started to itch. Everyone, all at once. Even the guards. You could feel your skin coming alive. It was the rhydo. They had a leak. You could feel it before you could smell it. So they all panicked and ran away, but it was new to me…”

Wilmon: “It’s done. You can open the valve now.”

Saw: (to Wilmon’s machine) “Aahh ha ha! I have always loved you…”

Wilmon: “What are you doing?!”

Saw: “There it is…”

Wilmon: “How can you do that?!”

Saw: “Because I understand it! Because she’s my sister rhydo, and she loves me! That itch, that burn… You feel how badly she wants to explode? Remember this. Remember this moment! This perfect night. You think I’m crazy? Yes, I am. Revolution is not for the sane. Look at us: unloved, hunted, cannon fodder. We’ll all be dead before the Republic is back and yet… here we are. Where are you, boy? You’re here! You’re not with Luthen. You’re here! You’re right here, and you’re ready to fight! We’re the rhydo, kid. We’re the fuel. We’re the thing that explodes when there’s too much friction in the air. Let it in, boy! That’s freedom calling! Let it in! Let it run! Let it run wild!”
