We are of the same mind it seems, SMan. I’m a huge fan of this edit, as well as CoD, but I just can’t stop myself from a purely extended version of ROTS. Plus, I actually slid the Yoda vs. Dooku duel into the end of my personal copy of this edit.

One day I’d definitely like to see a super-duper extended version of AotC with the Kenobi flashback in it. I’d mostly want to see if that scene allows for the rest of the Anakin and Obi-Wan scenes to make sense, as well as give purpose to Anakin’s rants about him to Padme. With Padme’s family scenes, the cringe from the Anakin and Padme’s love scenes might be subdued a little, too.

But I have a feeling this will probably remain my definitive version of Episode 2. Like you said, it’s just a fun film providing a great time now without all that baggage. You don’t really have to think about or justify any of the questionable content since it’s all been smoothly cut out.
