First off I don’t care for the PT at all but I just wanted to edit/cut a movie just for practice so I used TPM. It turned out I cut the movie down to under an hour (58mins or so). Since it was so short I got the idea to attempt to combine the other 2 movies and make one long movie out of all 3. After a fast cut I got all 3 movies to be a total of 3 Hours 20 mins. The edit is rather haphazard and is far from professional looking but I just wanted to get some feedback as to what people think of this edit. Or hopefully it could spark some ideas for others.

Just to give you an idea of how much content was taken out.
-There are no credits after TPM or ATOC they just fade out and the next movie fades in.
-The entire podrace
-The entire Zam situation including the chase scene and the bar scene
-Opening star fighter scene in ROTS (they just fly to the ship without any obstacles)
-Both elevator scenes in ROTS

There is a lot cut. Nearly 7 hours worth of film cut down to less than 3 1/2 hours, you could imagine how many there must be

The edit may very well be the worst edit in the history of Star Wars edits but I just wanted to here what everyone had to say.

If this idea has already been done or talked about I’m sorry to have created another thread about it.
