3. I am not denying the original prequels exist, nor am I attempting to replace them with my edits. They are simply offered as an alternative for anyone who doesn't like the PT in its current state.
4. My editing specifically is meant not to make the films look newer, as the goal of the SE was; it is to age them, to make them feel older and more like the OT.
So in a way, even though I'm chopping the films up worse than Lucas, they are the prequels, and the work I'm doing is bringing them closer to the OT, and not farther from it.
So it really isn't hypocritical. And I'm changing his "vision" because I don't like it; however if you don't like my work, then no damage is done. You have the option of watching the others.
