Very good. Frankly it’s a very smooth piece of work, doing nothing radical but tightening it all up. It doesn’t feel fanedity at all. I quite like how you didn’t go “too far” with anything: Keeping a handful of the elements people tend to object to, such as Jar Jar’s goofiness, has borne out nicely. Edits which seek to remove all of those things can feel more harshly cut, whereas it turns out they’re fine in smaller doses.

I haven’t compared this back to other leading edits, but clearly, this is an excellent version, which even at the very worst would make a great baseline to reintroduce the viewer’s preferred other tweaks into, and at the best, is an extremely strong version of this film.
