What Do YOU Think Star Wars Should Do Next?
Time

I agree Skybatman.

I’m hopeful if they keep damaging the brand over and over again like they are, eventually it will get to the point they have to sell it because there’s no return anymore. So long as Disney’s name is attached to it, no ones showing up. This would be the absolute best outcome for the brand.

The fact they keep doubling down on terrible ideas, tells me they are gonna do just that.

I’m also, of the opinion that most of the recent stuff isn’t even salvageable through “editing”. Most of the content is so empty to begin with that there is not much to enjoy after all the tight cutting anyway.

As someone who’s done edits of the shows, I couldn’t agree more.

At least the Prequels can be fixed with minor editing, but I can not say the same for any of the Disney content. The Prequels had a good story that was smothered with bad children’s humor, some bad dialogue, etc. All things that can be fixed with a few cuts. There’s no amount of fanediting that can fix the “first draft” level writing of these shows.

<em>Kenobi: Trials Of The Master</em> - Fanedit by PixelJoker95
Time

I think this show has next to nothing worth salvaging. But I’m just interested in seeing some of the new material he created for it. Like Obi-Wan discovering Anakin is alive while at the cantina, just the way it was in the far, far, superior Kenobi novel.

Some of these scenes could make for an awesome extended ending to Revenge of the Sith, which is probably something I’ll throw together for myself after PixelJoker finishes his edit.

sad that anyone agrees with Anjohan, it’s just empty rhetoric

I find it sad that you don’t agree with that. But like Bede said, I also find it pointless to argue cause I can already tell you we are on completely opposing sides, and would never find any sort of common ground.

STAR WARS: EP VI -RETURN OF THE JEDI &quot;REVISITED EDITION&quot;<strong>ADYWAN</strong> - ** PRODUCTION HAS NOW RESTARTED **

Thanks for testing that, Ady. I’ve added a different take which I think sounds better. I’ve tried putting the unmodified line in a rough test, and I definitely see what you mean, it’s missing that robotic quality despite it sounding like JEJ:

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1zlE34aGJd-yL0S_f52YbJwPko4fPAUQb?usp=drive_link

As you’ve made clear enough, you don’t feel it necessary to change this. The only reason I’m posting about it again is because I’m sure this will go in an alternative audio track project made by Octorox (or somebody else) at some point. What will likely end up happening is just replacing “Obi-Wan” with “Your mother” in the audio track to minimize any noticeable loss of that robotic quality between the sentences themselves . But all posts I make about this topic from now on will go in Octo’s miscellaneous projects thread, instead.

That test is perfect! I consider this an essential change for the perfect ROTJ edit, so I’ll definitely be on the look out for Octorox’s alternative audio when this project is finally done. 😃

the prequels don’t play a role

But hasn’t he changed things to conform to the sequels? Seems dumb to then throw the prequels to the wayside. I haven’t followed every detail of Revisted, so if Adywan stated this, I must have missed it.

Adywan, or anybody making an edit of ROTJ, is free to use these:

If for whatever reason these two particular takes of the line aren’t up to snuff I’ll add more.

I honestly think this is an essential change for any ROTJ edit.

'Rey Skywalker' (Upcoming live action motion picture) - general discussion thread

Anjohan said:

When it comes to film and tv media, my stance has been known - although heavily misunderstood by many. I’d argue it’s even been forcefully misunderstood the second time around.

It’s okay Anjohan. I 100% agree with your points and I’m sure there are plenty that also do, but choose to just stay silent to avoid the headache’s it is sure to cause. I come here for the fanediting portion of the community and rarely care to jump to these posts, knowing they are gonna go down the political route with the stupid crap these directors and actors constantly say before these movies come out…

But if they want to push their movies this way, that’s fine, cause I ain’t watching them, and couldn’t careless about them. I’ll just stick to the EU at this point. Hell I’d rather read Crystal Star again over watching one more second of Rey on screen.

So with that I’d say it ain’t even worth arguing anymore. Disney will continue to nosedive and I couldn’t have hoped for a better outcome for them.

Asokha Radical Redux Ideas thread
Time

If Sabine has to have the force, they shouldn’t have made her terrible at it in the beginning. The show spend it’s first few episodes basically telling you she’s terrible via Huyang. Instead she should have been able to use it to a small extent from the start, which could have easily been hand-waved away as something she learned how to do from her previous training with Ahsoka.

The way the show did it made Sabine’s force abilities feel unearned. Because she goes from not being able to move a cup just a few episodes earlier, to being able to push Ezra 30 feet across the sky. She even barely was able to grab her lightsaber in the very same episode, it’s just way to big of jump in power scaling. It could have worked if there was a “Oh I can do this.” moment in the show to justify her new “outlook” on the force, but there wasn’t.

I think the best way to correct this would be removing all of the earlier mentions and scenes of her being unable or terrible at using the force. Have her first time using the force be against her second fight with Shin, where she slightly pushes her. Showing the audience that she knows how to use it to some extent, instead of keeping the cup scene, where her face in that scene almost makes it look like she’s never seen the force or knows what it is lol.
