Is this the absolute final version? If so can I get the download? Also is there an edit of the 2nd movie too?

This is part of a PT edit series. The current version seems to be the “definitive” version according to Hal. It’s not out yet but soon will be. There are older versions, but I suggest you wait for the final version

I just think it makes sense seeing as a Blue saber indicates being a combat dominant Force-User, and Green indicates being Scholarly and Force-Use dominant. Yellow seams to be a bit of an in-between, balanced in the use of the Force and use of the Lightsaber. In my Star Wars Saga re-write, Obi-Wan will have a yellow saber.
Also, it just adds variety, and I am myself partial to Green and Yellow sabers.

Well, it might be neat to try toying with other Jedi, or perhaps Old Ben? Though it might be reasonable to assume that his colourless Jedi garb might end up somewhat earthy after two decades in the desert.
I’ve tried toying with the Revenge of the Sith poster and have drawn Anakin and the other Jedi in Samurai-esque armour, in the style of OT Vader.

I second LordPlagueis’ recommendation of removing the “battle hardened” droids line. How does more combat help a droid? I don’t think they gain experience.

Well, in real life, machine learning has actually been quite big deal recently in AI development.

In Star Wars droids learn too, of course. If I’m not mistaken the battle droids in Episode I didn’t have individual minds but were controlled by a Central Control Computer and thus they were all equally experienced. It’s possible that the “main AI” was “battle hardened” through the experience of each droid.

Valid points you two, but it just seems out of place nonetheless.

Imhotep's Skywalker Saga (EP1-8 + CW03 & R1) (V2 Released)

Very interesting! I shall be keeping an eye on this thread.

One suggestion for the RotS opening sequence. When the trio of goodies are running down the elevator shaft, perhaps you could change the reason for that to be that Grievous actively changed the gravity, rather than the ship capsizing.
It wouldn’t make sense for artificial gravity to be affected by a ships angle. This would work well, seeing as you’re dubbing him. Have him say something like; “Strap in, tilt gravity 90 degrees, make them struggle!”
I recommend using a voice similar to that of the CN network Clone Wars Grievous.

Good luck with this, by the way, it sounds like a project that I will enjoy very much

I’ll likely be having Anakin be about 14 when he meets Obi-Wan, and have him be rather mentally mature for his age. I was going to have Owen be the older brother originally, perhaps 18 years at the start.
As for the attachment to his mother, I’d probably change it so it’s more fitting for his age. I’ll be keeping the death of his mother, though.
As for the depiction of Kenobi, I shall likely have him a bit of a mix of AotC Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon.
But as for the flow of the saga, it’s definitely one of my highest priorities, along with making the series more adult and tragic

The Cloak of Evil. (Clips available) (Part-Finished project)

I recommend, if you are to change Dooku’s sabre colour, I recommend that the colour be either blue or yellow. Blue would work, because it implies that he spends his time developing his swordsmanship, green implies that he is more scholarly and uses more force powers. Yellow is somewhat of a middle ground, which works best with Dooku in my opinion

Oooo… Thank you for the idea BlackHawk. Very interesting idea, which I think you’ve sold me on.

I think that the way I’d use this idea would be mostly to flesh out the main characters - primarily Anakin, Luke, Han, Leia, and Obi-Wan - along with the ethical questions and themes, rather than just the story. And so, something with Boba would be a bit out of place. But the idea is something I feel myself falling in love with.
Switching time frames would definitely work with Star Wars’ back-and-forth style of storytelling.

With the idea of Luke going to Obi-Wan’s home would work well, with Luke building his lightsaber there, learning from Kenobi’s journal as you said - could reveal much more than Obi-Wan would openly say to Luke - and finding Kenobi’s old Jedi armour - which I will have him wear in the last part of the Saga
