Synopsis:

This fanedit combines the best aspects from other RotS fanedits along with many of my own concepts/edits to create a definitive version of “Revenge of the Sith”.


Intentions:

To combine the best aspects from other RotS fanedits along with many of my own concepts/edits to create a definitive version of "Revenge of the Sith".


Change List:

01. Added a new title crawl (developed from an After Effects “Star Wars title crawl” sequence originally created by Taolar) 02. Major cuts/edits to the Anakin, Padme, Obi-Wan, Yoda, Mace, General Grievous, and Palpatine characters 03. Tried to edit the Obi-Wan/Anakin relationship to be more akin to a elder brother or friend relationship (much less of this constant “my young padawan” or “yes Master” crap) 04. Count Dooku is no longer “Darth Tyranous” and has absolutely NO connection to the Sith – he is still a Jedi (abit a rebel Jedi) in my Prequel fanedits 05. Dooku’s lightsaber has been rotoscoped purple instead of “Sith red” 06. Removed the subplots of “Jedi not being able to marry” and “Anakin keeping his marriage to Padme is a secret” 07. Re-edited Anakin’s post-nightmare talk with Padme to heighten their relationship and remove poor acting 08. Removed scene of General Grevious arriving on Utopa and speaking with Sidious 09. Edited the “Jedi spying on Palpatine” subplot to better reflect the Jedis’ suspicions of Palpatine, increase Anakin’s anger toward the Council, and remove any mention of the “Chosen One” prophecy 10. Added the deleted “Plot to Destroy the Jedi?” scene back into the film 11. Trimmed the “Opera House” scenes a bit to remove Anakin being caught about spying on Palaptine and to remove the dialogue regarding midiclorians 12. Added the deleted “A Stirring in the Senate – Bail’s Office” scene back into the film 13. Re-edited the “Mace VS Palpatine” duel (along with the following “Anakin’s choice” scenes) to remove redundant elements and increase drama 14. Re-edited the “Order 66? sequence to include the Clonetroopers attack on the Jedi Temple and Anakin’s encounter with the younglings 15. Rotoscoped Yoda’s lightsaber to be purple 16. Removed Obi-Wan/Yoda’s attack on the clonetroopers outside the Temple 17. Added additional children screams to the audio during the hologram playback of Anakin attacking the Jedi Temple 18. Completely removed the “Yoda VS Sidious” duel from the film 19. Re-edited the final battle into a single duel between Obi-Wan and Anakin 20. Removes Padme “losing the will to live” reference 21. Padme now gives birth to only Luke 22. Cut and re-edited the “Birth of Darth Vader” sequence to remove overtly ‘stupid’ plotpoints 23. Replaced the shots of the WIP Death Star from Vader’s final scenes and replaced it with the planet Coruscant 24. Film now ends with Padme, Darth Vader, and Obi-Wan/Luke sequences 25. Added “Faneditor’s credit” to the end credits
