Rewrote about 1500 lines of dialogue to create a completely new story designed to form a satisfying conclusion to the entire Star Wars saga, while restoring as much of George original concepts for the sequels as possible. The story is more philosophical, taking inspiration from the Expanded Universe ("Legends"), perhaps most notably from Kreia and Jacen Solo. The scene order is completely, unrecognizably rearranged, while maintaining a meticulously finetuned pacing. Despite having a comprehensive story, the edit is split up into three parts of roughly an hour each for easier viewing. A beginning, a middle and an end, if you will. Created an extended intro that bridges the OT into the sequel era. Complete color regrade. Added new VFX including Kylo Ren using force lightning, and the planets Yavin and Coruscant. Added various Force visions, dreams and callbacks to the other Star Wars movies. Added many references to the prequel trilogy, continuing the story elements that were set up there. Added a lore-accurate explanation on the Whills and their role in the universe. Added deep musing voiceover sequences. Added new panoramic shots and shots from other movies to fill in gaps in the narrative. The lightsaber battle on Snoke's ship is now a lot more fast-paced. Restructured the space battles. Changed a lot of music into tracks from the other Star Wars movies and other media. The First Order is now the Imperial Remnant, driven back to the remote edges of the galaxy. Leia is the chancellor of the New Republic. Luke Skywalker and Han Solo stay more in-character and have a more satisfying arc now. Snoke now has a better backstory and a more important role. Kylo Ren's motives and dark side journey are a lot more comprehensive. Rey is now a Jedi from the beginning of the movie. Finn has a lot more character and is an agent for the New Republic from the start. No Phasma, Holdo or Rose arc. No Starkiller base. Jakku and Pasaana are now Tatooine. D'Qar and Ajan Kloss are now combined into Yavin IV. Extended and grandiose ending sequence. Two bonus post-credit scenes. Numerous more changes, both large and small, including a few... surprises.
