Video Editing

Thanks to BbqChkn for creating a fully accurate opening crawl animation. I added everybody who was credited on IMDB into the credits with full accurate font/style. I used a lot of footage from DSQRD’s edit Vengeance of the Dark Side because of the fixes to the blinking lights on the astromechs. I added a new shot of Obi-Wan dodging the missiles from Caleb Gamman’s edit. I added a new shot of Anakin’s starfighter barely making it into the hanger from Caleb Gammman’s edit. I added an extended shot of Obi-Wan jumping out of his straighter from Jean-Denis Haas’ VFX Reel. I fixed Obi-Wan and Anakin’s inaccurate lightsaber ignition sounds during the scene on Grievous’ bridge. I moved Grievous arriving on Utapao to right before the Darth Plagueis scene. I added the Emperor face relight during the scene where he reveals he’s a Sith from Caleb Gamman’s edit. I reordered the cutaways to Yoda during Anakin and Obi-Wan’s battle to keep it less interrupted. I sdded Yoda arriving on Dagobah from DSQRD’s edit.

Audio Editing

I used the 2020 Blu-Ray mix because it’s 7.1. I only used the 5.1 Dolby Digital EX Track to cover up the clone dialog that was added during the Utapao ambush. I kept as much of the original sound effects as I could, but I did have to insert a lot of new sound effects. For some scenes, I rebuilt the entire soundtrack from scratch. Something that I noticed after starting this project is that, in the dub recordings, Allah Gold says “Is an airship that that slowness crawl along.” However, in the original 2.0 mix, he says “Is an airship that slowness crawl along.” I spoke with the original creator (u/TheThirdGathers on Reddit) and confirmed that Allah Gold’s line in the 2.0 mix was a mistake and not a creative choice. So, the full line has been restored. There are a few other discrepancies between the performances and the subtitles. I tried to fix these by rearranging the lines, but I couldn’t get it to sound right. So, I left the rest of them as is. I actually ended up mixing the 7.1 down to 5.1 because 5.1 is a more common format that’s more compatible.

Subtitle Editing

  • I removed the opening crawl translation, and I retimed the subtitles to match the delivery of the dub. I also changed the font/style and italicized everything to match the original.

Chapter Markers

I created the chapter marker titles using a combination of Google Translate, the original DVD chapter titles, and lines from the movie. For the fight scenes, I just replaced the character names with their Backstroke of the West counterparts. For example, the “Yoda vs. Sidious” chapter marker was changed to “Vanquish Is vs. Speaker D.” It was mostly just whatever felt right.
