I can work on the Naboo destroyer shot

A take on the Love Pledge scene. I’ve had this idea in my head for the longest time that it could be interesting to portray Anakin as a character who doesn’t speak very much/isn’t incredibly sure of himself. Going along with this idea I have removed all of Anakin’s lines from this scene, which makes it much more watchable imo. I don’t think this particular edit of the clip is perfect but it’s a nice proof of concept.
computer time >:)
Wow! I love how this is coming along!
I had noticed that when I did my endor kef bir shot and I thought that it could be left in because it has almost no screen time and it’s just a neat little reference to the original painting.
computers are the worst >: (
Maybe a new shot would have to be made showing the Falcon actually lifting off?
Since a lot of edits are repurposing the chess scene to put it at the end, has anyone thought about repurposing the shot of Rey, Finn, Poe, Threepio, and Chewie in the cockpit of the falcon from earlier in the movie as well? It’s got that “family portrait in space” vibe that the original trilogy’s ending shots all had.
Holy shit that’s such a good idea !!!
if my computer was still around I would have happily volunteered to do all the masking lmao
I really love orange Exegol
to be fair that could easily be reframed as a part of his knowledge of First Ordet systems. It could be an a-class process or whatever tlj calls it lol
Oh my GOD
Idea: place Poe’s “can we kiss?” line during the final celebration when he’s embracing with Finn.
If the shot’s not long enough I remember a much longer alternate take/different angle existing in the documentary.
For the record I am desparate for these two characters to be in love because I desperately want to see people like me on the big screen for longer than one second.
I found time to watch the workprint and dang!! It’s infinitely more watchable than the theatrical release! While I would have personally made much more radical changes, all of these existing changes compound into a very wonderful edit! I agree with most criticisms I’ve seen so I won’t repeat any! I can’t wait to see the edit become even greater!
Lovely work! Immensely proud of everyone! 💕
I’m so proud to have contributed to such a lovely project! : )
Fantastic work everyone! It’s been a blast!
I absolutely adore this!!
Oh my goodness I love this!! Good work !
THAT’S SO GOOD OH MY GOD
Fantastic post!!
LMAO
Reading the Empire as an allegory for the United States during the Vietnam War, having women as Stormtroopers in the First Order makes total sense.
The allegories for fascism are very very clear, but most modern iterations are more subtle about disregarding women and other minorities. “Women are in our movement therefore the our fascist group cannot be inherently bigoted!”
Even though I don’t think there’s much genuine intentional political commentary in the Disney-era films, I do think it improves them to read them allegoricaly.
TLDR: I wouldn’t agree with the choice to remove women-voiced stormtroopers
edit: nevermind
It is pandering but it’s pretty harmless so cutting it seems pretty extreme and a little yikes.
I’m still mad that Finn and Poe didn’t end up smooching at the end.
There are so many things in this world that I would rather you donate to lol.
❤❤❤
Thank you, everyone, for your very kind words !!
I don’t plan on becoming inactive, don’t worry !
