The Edited Version of 'The Last Jedi' Is More Realistic

Crying Jedi
Someone just made an edited version of the movie "Star Wars: The Last Jedi" to correct the mistakes made by the producers and remove almost all characters that were not included in the original version of the story. It was uploaded to The Pirate Bay website last 15 January and it became an instant hit despite some roughness on the edge.

Entitled "The Last Jedi: De-Feminized Fanedit," the illegal torrent is described by the uploader "the chauvinist cut" and "basically The Last Jedi minus Girlz Powah and other silly stuff."

The popular version is only 46 minutes long, which the uploader notes was "not ideal," but "it had to be done." (The real version is 2 hours, 32 minutes.)

The uploader included a list of everything taken out:
"
  • No whiny/reluctant/murderous psycho Luke.
  • NO HALDO! She simply doesn't exist. Her whole subplot doesn't exist. The Kamikaze is carried out by Poe. ( = Poe dies.)
  • Leia never scolds, questions nor demotes Poe.
  • Lea dies. Kylo kills her.
  • Kylo is more badass and much less conflicted and volatile.
  • Kylo takes on more of Snoke's guards, Rey struggles with a single one.
  • No bomber heroism by china girl in the beginning.
  • No Canto Bight.
  • No superpowered Rey.
  • Luke is not a semi-force-ghost and is smashed by the first laser cannon shot. (sorry, I just had to!)
  • Phasma is finished after the first blow by Finn. (Women are naturally weaker than men, she isn't force-sensitive, and we know nothing about any exo-skeleton in her suit)
  • Asian chick speaks less, doesn't bully Finn, Finn doesn't try to escape, she is never formally introduced. She is just there and occasionally smiles at Finn or screams "Finn!". She has no sister. Serves her right for all the heinous stuff she did.
  • Lots of little cuts reducing the number of female facial shots. Too many to count. (Pun intended.)
  • Quite a few scenes rearranged so that the flow of the shortened movie is still somewhat coherent."
The instant hit version was further popularize when it caught social media attention.

The uploader says in another note that "there are plotholes and continuity errors and some cuts are not as smooth as they should be, especially audio transition-wise." The "intro sequence is now very watchable and actually much cooler without all of Leia’s nitpicking," the person continues.

"Star Wars: The Last Jedi" sports the lowest Audience Score on Rotten Tomatoes. In the eyes of the average Rotten Tomatoes user, "The Last Jedi" (49 percent) is worse than "The Phantom Menace" (59 percent) and even "Attack of the Clones" (57 percent).
