"Rise of Skywalker" opened while I was ever so briefly in LA last December.
In the immediate debrief of our communal viewing [namedrop] Ryan and Seth [/namedrop] strenuously disagreed with me that deepfake tech might have been (or should have been) used to enhance the late Ms. Fisher's performances. I have yet to re-watch, so I remain on the fence.

Another short film I've partially written and will never film is an amalgam of stories of the 4 little graves in my backyard. Crying with you right now Snail.

How much longer 'til they reconnect your, um, shit?

Yeah, safesearch was off. Sorry, not sorry.

<edit> Hat tip to Boter for at least catching (and explaining) the reference.

Welcome back.

Obviously JJ knew she was Palpatine's heir from TFA forward; Did Ryan know?

The purpose of that rhetorical is to proceed to this one: Do we still think the three sequels were bumbling along (as we the internet echo chamber did while discussing leadership & casting announcements), or was this the plot outline Kathleen Kennedy, et al, were pitched at the outset?

Put me down as of the opinion that the latter is the case. We can quibble about the execution, but the plot backbone has been there. Now I'm off to google what the "ring theory" guy has to say.

"The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of The Force."
Now we know that's true.

The guitar part that first comes in right at 0:44 is what I've named the 'spanish' stuff.
Probably not the most accurate, possibly racist, IDK.

Does that Slipperman thing exist anywhere with the audio files intact? Quick search on the archive indicated not.

I concur with the parts of Junior's comments that I grok. I've got sound-guy cred but no production.

The spanish/classical picking is cool, but I think I'd to hear it sharper, brighter...the distortion masks the skill of the player there. Maybe everything is mixed with too much low-frequency? Fill out the upper registers somehow? Spanish style guitar 'usually' brings higher overtones.
