    Interesting. Reminds me of the "Machete Order" (which removes TPM entirely) that we were all talking about here a couple of months back.

    I have started and stopped my own version of the same thing several times. Often because I get to busy or plainly to bored of the prequals to even care about doing it. I too would be interested in seeing this.

    There's a dedicated fan community out there with around nine billion different re-edits of the Star Wars films and the prequels. (I remember once seeing an trailers made for a version that would edit the Anakin story to be something running simultaneously with Luke's story, in a kind of The Godfather II sort of way). I wonder how Grace's edit would compare to those, but if you really want to see 'improved' Star Wars, it's out there.

    This. Fanedit.org lists dozens of SW prequel edits alone... but, in the end, imho, when it comes to Eps. I-III, the Only Winning Move is Not to Play. :p

    In the lap of squalor I assure you.
    I just want to see a cooking show where Mace Windu shows the public how he can cook many different imaginary starwars creatures rectally with his purple light sabre.

    Or a cook off?

    Where mace Windu and Obiwan see who can bumfry more Womprats than the other in 2 minutes.

    85 minutes, pretty good. Sounds about right. Anything that saves us from more Jar Jar must be good.

    He has said he did not do this as a criticism. Just as a means to learn and practicing film editing.

    Sounds interesting.

    Now if Topher could edit himself out of SPIDER-MAN 3 and PREDATORS, maybe those would be much improved.

    In other news Danny Masterson has made a killer playlist that he's shared with his girlfriend.

    I don't see why he just doesn't put it up on YouTube.

    Basically uploading someone's work in such a way has a lot of legal traps.

    I suppose someone could "steal" a copy and upload it.

    I've had the displeasure of seeing it.
    Admittedly, it is superior by all accounts to any of the prequels simply because much of the insipid dialogue, cardboard characters, and naive political machinations have been removed.
    Mind you, that's like saying that my shit smells better than yours. It's still shit.
