Unless someone can recreate something closer to what was intended via an original old script or something, it seems like it would be most efficient to focus on the elements used for II and merge the 2 versions. Since the time travel bit was used in I, its redundancy in II could be eliminated, along with the aforementioned bagging of the "Super kiss" bit as well. To make a single film, the best way to keep the time travel would be to hack it from the end of I, and move it to somewhere where it wouldn't be too close to the end of the II story. I don't know. My brain hurts now...
