Just wanted to leave my feedback on the Prequels I've seen so far. I'm to the point where Kenobi and Skywalker have there final duel in Episode III. I must say, job well done ADM. The editing isn't bad at all, and the stories flow together. I like that you removed a lot of the silliness, but left enough humor in to keep us entertained. I don't really get why it was necessary to keep Padme queen, but it really didn't take away from the Plot or add to it, for me, at least.

I do have one plot issue that is kind of crawling up my skin. You removed the midichlorians, and I understand why, but now we're left with an immaculate conception that just happened. This just doesn't sit right with me. Even with Jesus, you know that the Holy Spirit had something to do with the Virgin Mary becoming pregnant. If you ever do a 2.0 of "A Vergence in the Force" please remove this reference, as well. If you cut after Qui-Gon says, "The force is unusually strong with him, that much is clear." Then pick it back up when Anakin's mother says, "Can you help him?" You'll end up with a clean edit, and it it doesn't mess with the story line at all, cause it wasn't established in the OT that Vader didn't have a father, nor was it mentioned anywhere else in the prequels.

Oh, the dream sequence in "Path to the Darkside" looks unnatural....It doesn't mesh with the other dream sequences in the rest of the prequels. I think maybe in this case, it would have been the lesser evil to leave it and bear the anguish of Anakin appearing to jerk off.

Otherwise awesome job. I may try my hand at editing, at least the one scene with the immaculate conception, just to see if I can do it. Well, I'm off to watch the rest of III, and the OT.
