Hi, can anyone recommend me some good edits of the prequels? Especially Episode III? I’ve already seen Attack of The Phantom and loved it. the Adigitalman edit and the slumberland edit both looked very different and both interesting.
I liked Adigitalman's but personally no edit has yet to be better then the actual film for me.

The MagnoliaFan edits are worth a spin if you haven't yet tried them and all three Slumberland edits (including his/her Episode III) have lots of interesting choices (especially when it comes to the battle droids).
Both get around the Jar-Jar problem in different ways MagnoliaFan by using subtitles to turn him into a wise-ass Solo type character and Slumberland by trimming his buffoonery so he is actually funny (well I laughed at least twice) while remaining the same character.

I'll take a look at the Magnoliafan edits but the reversed Spanish really bugs me....

Well this is a forum for fan edits, if that's all that bugs you why not replace it yourself?

Well I am working on my own edit of Ep III right now actually.

Best of luck, I look forward to seeing it.
I found the sound of the Gungans, the Trade Federation bods and their droids voices a bit urksome in the MagnoliaFan edits but the idea worked for me.
I would like to see the same idea but with a much more convincing set of alien languages used.
The subtitles were clever because they made the films (especially Episode 1) much darker and Jar Jar turned from being a silly clown into a likable jerk with a cynical streak.
I have yet to see the edit where he is a Jedi (there seem to be more than enough of those in the prequels already).
So, no chance of someone re-shooting the entire prequels over again? =)

These are George Lucas' flims and he loves them pretty much the way he gave them to us.
He might make the odd change here and there (he already has with the DVD versions), we might get 3D versions if the fad takes off again but as far as he is concerned he had more control over the prequels than he did over the original trilogy and it's mission accomplished, let's sell toys.
Fan films are getting better but it will be a wondrous miracle if we ever got one as good as TESB.
That's why we are all here making the best of what Mr Lucas did give us.
Going by the Clone Wars television show it could have been much worse.
Yeah Clone Wars isn't doing much for me... And just when I thought the prequels had too much Jar-Jar.....They use him SO FRIGGIN' MUCH! And he is actually more annoying in the show than he was in the movies....
I don't mind the idea of an animated star wars series, but since you already know who's safe and who dies, there is NO tension in the show. It would be great if they would just take it post ROTJ, and use the books as a resource for stories. I would love to see Timothy Zahn's trilogy in action.
As far as recommendations go, I've enjoyed the Slumberland edits of I and II the most. But the best III edit I've ever seen is by Killer Sand Box.
Wanna trade fan edits?
Question. Is there a DVD9 of the ADM edit? if so could someone PM me a link?
Octorox, someone said they liked the edits done by 'Sithlord' a lot. You can read the details up at the FanEdit site, if interested.

I've never heard of that one. What's it like? Is there a page somewhere where I can read about it?
You know of the rebellion against the Empire?
You know... I'm sure this is crazy; but we have some freakishly awesome editors on here.... Why couldn't we re-shoot the prequels... I know how to shoot; and have the equipment... Someone has to know how to do some CG work... I know how to do green screen keying... We have all the music we could ever need.
I'm SURE this would never happen; but if some of us worked together on different aspects, I actually do believe it could happen.
Crazy dreams, I know... But how much fun would that be???
I suppose it would depend on how much ALL the 'editors' involved could actually agree on ALL the decisions wanted by each other.... ;)

we'd need costumes, props ect. It's lots of cash and it still wouldn't look as professional as GLs versions
Hmmm...... I might disagree... it all depends on what you write into it, and how you use what you have.

I don't know of any page with reference to the edit, so I'll do my best to describe it. I refer to it as "The Vintage Edit" because the editor added a slight grain to the picture. He made some of the best cutting decisions I've yet to see in a III edit, with the film moving along at a wonderful pace while cutting all the fat and moments most of us hate.

So how do we get "The Vintage Edit".... Torrent?
Hi, I missed that thread by asking a suggestion on an other one...

An ambitious scheme to be sure but it's not entirely impossible, (just look at how amazing some fan films look) perhaps you should move this topic over to the Radical Redux thread as starting from scratch is as about as radical as radical can be. It would be much easier to fill in the continuity holes if a new story avoided them entirely and this thread is really for recommending existing edits.

Completely different approaches. The phantom editor simply cuts down the film to tell George's story in a quicker, more enjoyable pace with some of the prequel silliness removed. Magnoliafan does more of a complete overhaul with new alien voices. I don't like it too much but you might.
Thanks !
