EDIT: This idea has been expanded to a three film trilogy! Each film will condense a trilogy into a single film meaning each generation gets one movie.
I know I saw a thread somewhere about this but I've been giving it some light thought. I don't know if it's possible to improve the trilogy with a single film, but I think it would be a fun experiment! I don't have all the ideas as to what goes in, what gets cut, and how to reorganize all the shots so right now it's just a jumble of possibilities.
TBH, I'm not sure this will work and odds are good the whole thing would be a mess!
- Star Wars: Abridged I — Republic (Episodes I - III)
- Star Wars: Abridged II — Rebellion (Episodes IV-VI)
- Star Wars: Abridged III — Resistance (Episodes VII-IX)

- I'd like to either cut out Grand Moff Tarkin or reduce his role in ANH and keep the antagonist as just Vader.
- Instead of arriving at the Death Star, it's the Executor which bombards Alderaan. (Maybe cut the dreadnaught from TLJ firing along with another sci-fi movie to complete this)
- Cut out Yavin 4 and have the base be on Hoth
- The battle of Hoth would be a bit of a weird thing. I THINK there might be a way to splice footage of the battle of Yavin, Hoth, and Scarif together. Have Luke be in his X-Wing while Han and Leia evacuate Hoth.
- Have Obi Wan tell Luke to go to Dagobah during this battle (instead of using the force to destroy the death star)
- Cut out the asteroid sequence from ESB (there's a reason)
- Have Luke's training go on as normal
- Somehow have it so Han is never frozen in carbonite and escapes Bespin
- Remove Jabba's palace entirely
- Repurpose the bacta scene here with his hand being rebuilt
- Luke heads back to Dagobah
- Meets up with the fleet where the Death Star is revealed to still be under construction (but is fully operational)
- Repurpose the asteroid sequence so that Han takes out the Death Star
- No Ewoks or ground battle
