This is the only version of Kylo lives that I liked. Basically because it also puts Rey on roughly equal moral footing. And having them leave together to an unknown future is ambiguous enough that it assuages the concern over everyone else instantly forgiving him.

I have an idea about Finn finding it hard to kill stormtroopers, since he knows what they’re going through

I like how the Sith cultists believe this is the only way to make peace: Sith believe in absolutes.

Im only six minutes in, and this is EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED FROM THIS FILM- inner conflict in the First Order (coup, mutiny, Phasma/Hux betrayal etc)

As much as I hated Rose in TLJ, I was kinna hoping her character would receive more development and be improved upon in ROS. I mean, come on, fans hated Ahsoka when she was first introduced. But did Dave Filoni lazily write her out of the Clone Wars? No. He took the time and effort to expand her character and make her as beloved as she is now. Instead, Rose got written out and replaced by an even more half-assed, under-developed character, bringing us back to square one.

This is great, especially Finn. He finally gets a logical arc that makes sense and shows character growth !

This was amazing. The Sith cultists were probably the best part. They believed evil was the only way to restore peace, and the line “Not you, her” literally gave me goosebumps Someone hire this man!

Ah Rise of Skywalker time (Grabs popcorn)

I feel like the stormtrooper rebellion should be the turning point rather than the Lando scene

I just recently joined the Star Wars universe so I'm not a fan, more a movie-goer. I would enjoy watching your version of this movie so much more than what made it to theatres. It would have been epic and well paced.

This gave me chills it was so good. Yes to Dark Rey.

This would be a great movie bruh. The only thing I thought was rushed was Dark Rey then Light Rey again, so the movie could be longer and have more scenes exploring this. Other than that I don't have any issues, really appreciate what you did there

I think the end shot should be Rey and Ben looking out over Luke’s old Jedi temple as the walk toward is and begin to pick up old rubble, the camera pans back to see Luke, obi wan, Yoda, Anakin, and leia all in ghost form from the back, looking over them as they rebuild the Jedi order so be something new

I honestly would've loved to see the last scene in the saga be what Colin Trevorrow had in his script. Everybody looking through R2's memory and seeing everything from the prequels to where there are now. Maybe this happens after Rey and Ben go off into the galaxy together right before the credits. I just think it's an amazing fan service moment to wrap up the Skywalker Saga.

That’s crazy how similar your version and the original version are, just shows how easy it would’ve been to make it a good finale.

My man. Do not sell yourself short. I'd say you outdid Trevorrow for sure. No, it's not perfect, but damn I wish I could see this movie.

"I've been looking forward to this." - Count Dooku, 2005

I love the idea of the Stormtroopers rebelling this way! Good work!

I’ve been looking forward to this as much as the real film.

Seriously LOVE this version! My heart hurts that we didn’t actually get something this thematically on point. Especially the acknowledgement that Anakin redeemed himself and that was his true legacy to pass on. So good! And YES to Finn having such an awesome character arc!

Don't sell yourself short. I really like your take on the rise of Skywalker. Keep making these great videos!

I love how the ideas and scripts that fans come up with are better than the shit that Disney gave us.

The fact that you posted this today made my day. I'm sick and don't know what to do with myself

If Hollywood has any sense, they'll hire this man. Excellent work, sir.

NO WAY I JUST FINISHED WATCHING UR PREVIOUS ONE

This is my new canon. Thank you.

Or... Ben steps out, igniting his uncles GREEN lightsaber! He recovered it from Luke's ruined Jedi academy the night he burned it to the ground.

I’m not a huge fan of the “love not hate” callbacks because I thought it was cheesy and sort of dumb when it was first used...but, I do like the idea of Finn rallying the stormtroopers and Rey switching positions with kylo. and I LOVE the idea of a mother’s unconditional love being the thing to bring a lost and confused child back from beyond the brink. Rey being the villain at the end would have been really interesting, and a good consequence to her character being so powerful-though I do think more would have to go into convincing her that only power brings peace. When Finn is in the stormtrooper base, I think it would be even better if no one stops them from being arrested at first (because they’re scared kids-even if you don’t believe the propaganda, you’re not going to speak up that easily) but later, a few guards come to escort them to the execution chamber and then it’s almost a moment-for-moment callback to Finn’s first conversation with Poe, and at one point Finn says something like “wow. So this is how he felt.” Also HE WOULD GIVE THEM NAMES.

A huge missed opportunity in the rise of skywalker was during the duel on the destroyed deathstar. When Rey left him kylo should not of saw a memory/vision of han, but instead heard the vague breathing of a respirator. Kylo would turn around only to see Darth Vader in light blue force ghost light. At first vader talks in a demanding tone, scaring kylo. Kylo ignites his saber, but to his astonishment vader deactivates it with a stroke of his hand. At this point vader would ignite a lightsaber and walk menacingly towards kylo, leaving him in fear. But just before he slashes at him he stops. Vader would then lift his hands to his helmet and drop it with a thud next to kylo... kylo looks up to see not the merciless face of a sith, but the face of Anakin skywalker.. anakin then talks to kylo about why dark side is trash and then badabook badaboom kylo begins his redemption. also would be cool to instead of seeing him throw his lightsaber into the ocean, but instead purify it like ahsoka did.

It's so sad to realize the wasted potential of this film when you listen to all these terrific ideas.

i love how every single person basically wanted rey to turn to the dark side, like all the fan theories and ideas i have read share this theme

I feel like keeping Palpatine in isn't necessarily bad, with one condition: he's only a ghost seeking to possess Rey. He could have expected Vader to kill him (as any sith apprentice should) and created a fail-safe plan to live forever using a sith Relic that would store his dark side essence, which would then be taken by his loyal followers to Korriban, the only place in the galaxy where the dark side is strong enough to prevent him from dissipating and allow him to manifest as a ghost. Perhaps Palpatine had foreseen that the destruction of the Jedi order would cause the Force to eventually converge in one individual creating the strongest Force user in millennia, and he wanted to take over that person's body to live again. That vergence in the Force is obviously Rey. Palpatine sent his pupil Snoke to seek her out, but after leaving Palpatine's sphere of influence he rebelled and decided to take his own apprentices and conquer the galaxy for himself. With Snoke dead, Kylo Ren could discover the means Snoke was supposed to contact Palpatine (holocron, wayfinder, dark side radio, Fortnite account, whatever) and speak with him. Palpatine learns about Rey from Kylo and manipulates him to fetch her by telling it's the way Kylo can fulfill his destiny (which actually just means Palpy intends kill him after he's taken over Rey's body). In the end you could have Palpatine take over Rey Exorcist-style after convincing he wants the war to end too, and it's the only way they can do it, by combining forces. However Kylo, who is at this point a reformed Ben Solo, manages to drive his ghost out of Rey and into himself, and then commits suicide before Palpatine can control him fully. Maybe that's too much of an Exorcist parallel, but that's about the only way I could think of involving Palpatine in the movie without totally ruining the ending to the OT.

I LOVE IT! Finally, someone brave enough to post a content of how they can fix the movie instead of just whining. I WOULD DEFINITELY WATCH THIS MOVIE 10X more if this is the plot. Honestly, anything is better than what DLF and that CT script can offer right now. I love what you did to Finn's arch and more appearance of Rose. And I love the concept of Dark Rey. They should have really have gone that way. But sadly Disney doesn't have enough balls to do that. What I love most is keeping Ben alive. Thank you! Thank you! I like the vague open-ended ending and it makes more sense and it opens a lot of possibility of how they can continue the story in the future as animated series or books. Well done! 👏👏👏

Ben's redemption was the best part of Rise, and you just made it even better. Props. I am now subscribing. You won me over

This is really good! And the underlying message - that you can choose who you want to be rather than being locked into an arc because of past choices or lineage, is much more Star Wars than what we got. And, of course, the rest of the story makes much, much more sense and is far more cohesive. What a shame that the overpaid hacks gave us the dud we got in theaters.

Incredible work! Really liked the idea of young Rey accidentally force lightning her parents to death - the shock of which (wahey) leads to her repressed childhood memories

Much better, I like your outline a lot!!

This is perfect I loved it, liked it more than the Trevorrow version.

In addition, this is something I've always wanted in Star Wars, is like while Rey's conflict with who she is in the light or dark and touching Ben's hand, you can see her eyes flicker between Sith yellow and her normal eye color, eventually ending in her turn to the light. Anyways great job on this whole saga, definitely better than what we got, though maybe we see some flashes of Sith in her in the Last Jedi so the whole Sith Rey isn't so fast. But still great job and was fantastic.

The storm trooper revolt and Kylo fighting his way off a Star destroyer sounds badass.

I liked Finn's part in the stormtrooper uprising! When he starts saying his stormtrooper designation number it really brought chills down my spine.

Make sure to watch Part 1, as this builds on everything established in that video! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q8mnm5iQyryaZok.html

I love how badass phasma is in your version of the story

Really good video! Personally I found your version to be a lot more interesting than what we got in theaters.

I would have loved Anakin to come back to speak to Ben instead of Luke or Leia, but overall I think this is great

Kylo's redemption was the best story in the sequel trilogy. Also, I would PERSONALLY like the movie to end with the realisation that the only way to maintain peace in the galaxy is to have a balance of light and dark in you.

I would swap Rose and Poe here, as otherwise it feels too much like a retread of TLJ, what with the capture by Phasma and all.

I think a good way to end it would be George Lucas’ original idea for the end of episode 9: r2-d2 and c-3p0 recounting the story of the Skywalkers to the whills decades after it happened. It really pays off the “long time ago” aspect of the series imo. Loved the vid tho 👍

i love this so so so much. this version of the story would do so much justice for the characters! the sequel trilogy as it is breaks my heart because it introduced such amazing, compelling characters, and then kind of let them all down in the writing

Bruh! I really hope you get hired as a member of Star Wars. This was pretty masterful, man! I already loved this movie, but this is amazing!

Bro, this is perfect, I love your story so much.

I absolutely love this. The pacing is top notch. I would also have them restart the Jedi order at the end.

Your idea of making Rey the Sith Messiah was inspired! It would have completely explained the main peculiar problem of the sequels: that Rey is such s Mary Sue.

I don’t know if you mentioned about there being an actual sith weapon (which I may have missed or you just may have forgotten which is okay) but Snoke may have been referring to Rey as the weapon since at the Sith temple is where you said she would actually turn to the dark side. I don’t know just an idea. I really like this version of ROS by the way!

Love the ideas in this great video particularly the storm troopers switching sides

This is a great story! My only comment is that there is nothing for Hux to do. It's great that you have Phasma back as she was so underused in Last Jedi, but I like the sibling rivalry of Ren and Hux.

I really like the way you redeemed Kylo/Ben and used Rey as the primary antagonist of the story. I feel like I would have given the friendship between the main trio (Poe, Rey, Finn) a little more weight because that's what I like to see, and StormPilot is my OTP for this triology so I would have put Poe and Finn into more scenes together to develop their relationship more after the groundwork that was laid in TFA. Also, your description of Leia's sacrifice gave me chills. I know it's not ideal to have her die in this film and you're not fully happy with it, but I really liked it. Seriously, great job with this series! I think if I had gone to see your version of the film I think I would have rather liked it!

Really appreciate the work you put in for us ✊ Was really looking forward to some knowledge

Dude, this is fantastic!!! Love it! Well done!!

Liking this video before watching just for the title card of releasing it even after the leaked script came out. Now to enjoy your version!

I loved this more than the movie and the rest of the scripts, thank you so much for this.

Wow. This is shockingly good, and this has the capacity to have been exceptional. I didn't think it was possible for a conclusion to this trilogy to be solid.

Thank you for feeding the Reylos this is amazing and epic

Great, nice ending! Thank you so much 😊

You’re plot twist in the end is amazing. Rey turning to the dark side and Ben trying to bring her back and the First Order troopers removing their helmets and rebelling is perfect. It’s liked the opposite idea from Revenge of the Sith.

This gave me goosebumps, such a better retelling

I love you for having Gustav Holst's The Planets as your background music. That Musical Suite was actually the inspiration for the Star Wars score

I LOVE this so much! wow. excellent version - I would pay good money to see this for real.

When Anakin watches Rey bury his lightsaber IN THE SAND

Loved watching both parts! Speculating on what the movies could have been is a lot of fun. Love the idea of having Ben Solo survive

I've been looking forward to this.

I need this version so much!

This version was so much more interesting and enjoyable than the actual film! Great job!

It's excellent just imagining what fans and fam alike are cooking up for an even greater version of this piece!-)+

One thing though With your (better) version of the movie, the title doesnt really seem to fit anymore. There isnt really much of a Skywalker rising, unless you count Ben Solo, who is only half of the protagonist team. Given that the arc words seem to be "you are who you choose to be"... I would propose "Star Wars: The Path of the Chosen". It has a nice double meaning as it may refer Ben & Rey´s journey to become the sith heirs, calls back to the "chosen one of the force" and also plays on the arc words. But that was just from the top of my head.

Nobody can deny the amazingness of Babu Frik

Excellent work!! A much better story.

Holy Moly! I loved your take on the film. The ending is great. Seems great for Rey and Ben. Literally everything I wanted for Finn, Rose and Poe.

So much better then the orginal script . Very Nice !

amazing as always!!!

YES! YES! YES! I’m literally only like 3 minutes in but I wholeheartedly agree with everything (especially about Palpatine and his connection with Rey) you’ve said. Also the whole coup thing with the First Order? That’s basically what I originally thought they were going to do before the trailers and such came out. Despite Rey maybe going to the dark side and coming back was a tiny bit rushed, I’m sure it would’ve seemed seamless in the film’s original three hour runtime. If Disney had wanted the film to have an Endgame-esque ending, they should’ve have given the film enough time to do so.

This is much better than the sequals than we got

This is a great video! I love your version of the film, you just got another sub!

I just finally got around to watching RoS and couldn’t even finish it I was so annoyed and found this video instead. So now your version is cannon to me as it’s pretty much exactly what I wanted from this franchise.

This is what i wanted, thank you...

Solid Dawg... you pretty much Re-did starwars I your own way...... loved it!!!!!!

Oh. My. Gosh. The Finn scene moved me. Especially when you showed a clone wars scene while you described it. Gosh I would have loved to see that

I love this, but the Sith world is called MORABAND in the current canon, as we saw in The Clone Wars Season 6.

This is really good.

I absolutely love this fix man, wish we had it as Episode 9, I hated Ben dying

this is better then both the rise of skywalker original and duel of the fates, great job!

I like most of this a whole lot . Finn and Kylo’s arcs especially. I do have an issue with Rey’s turn in that it doesn’t feel dark side enough, maybe it should lean more heavily on her determination to be somebody and stoking the anger of her abandonment - I just think telling her that accepting the power will end the war isn’t quite right. I so wanted the double turn when I saw the trailer and I’m glad you incorporated it, though.

I loved your version

Very well done

My friends and I had talked about a reversal of roles where Rey turned to the dark and Ben turned to the light and you put that in a way that would've made an amazing movie bravo!

I really like this!

I can't put into words how much I love this! Yes, it certainly needs work in some areas. I think the way Rey joins the light side again is kinda..ehh but I still love it. I would take this version over the trash we got any day. If I ever have the skills to do so I'll make this into a novel or comic. I really want to be a writer and/or artist someday and this stuff is exactly what I wanna make. Great Job, those three weeks were worth it!

Great video, good story and themes considering what was available in a disjointed trilogy. Just subscribed, keep up the good work :-)

Wow. Your is so much better !! Nice work!

My favorite part about this version is that Finn gets to do literally anything other than stand somewhere and scream at the absolute top of his lungs “Rey”
