Did you know Revenge of the Sith had a 4-hour long cut?

Skywalker Sound’s Matthew Wood discusses the original version of Episode III: Revenge of the Sith and its 4-hour long cut.

The Turn: A History of the Evolution of Anakin’s Downfall (focusing more on the late changes to ROTS when still filming)

…would seem to be good places to start. I’m sure there are other quality and informative articles out there on the topic.

Good luck with it. 👍
 

PS: it may be worth checking through Project Index: Star Wars Fan Edits & Other Projects to see if anyone here has attempted such a reconstruction / edit project of the ‘4 hour cut’ for Revenge Of The Sith (or similar ‘extended’ versions).

IIRC, a few editors on here have tackled this. ✔️
