I guess I’m just weirdly in the minority of “regular posters” here that legitimately enjoy fanedits of the prequels. Octoroxs edits of the first two and Hals ROTS, while not the artistic masterpieces of ANH and ESB, are to me very enjoyable popcorn flicks. They are definitely prequels, so the ot is where the real magic is, but I can at least have fun and enjoy the ride getting to where the real magic is.

“This is where the fun begins”.

Although there are some moments in ROTS that actually resonate with me on an emotional level and actually feel very powerful and almost get me shook up. But to be fair these are mostly to the credit of John Williams. This one actual feels emotional to me. But then again I’m so used to edits I barely remember the original. Also while Obi-Wans character in the prequels leaves some to be desired, but as an actor Ewan McGregor did a great job.

TLDR I’ll give 2 lists, one including fanedits of the pt and one with the originals.

No fanedits:

ANH
ESB
TFA
ROTJ
R1
ROTS
AOTC
TPM

Including fanedits:

ANH
ESB
TFA
ROTS
TPM
ROTJ (although if I ever finish my conservative edit of ROTJ that just trims annoying things like a simple prequel edit this will be higher. I should have finished it years ago but I have a hard time staying dedicated to it and I always start over when I come back)
R1
AOTC which in Octorox edit I still legitimately enjoy.
