Out of curiosity why do you all "wonder if" endlessly about the prequels? You hate them, that isnt going to change. Its evident in any prequel edit Ive ever watched. Where most OT edits are much more carefully edited, in an attempt to make them better movies all prequel edits are designed to change them, to make them "better" movies and it shows. Every true prequel fan edit has been a jarring hack and slash job trying to turn the movies into something they are not.

Now, I know that my PT-hate is considerably less than the average fan on these boards, but I like to 'wonder-if" because I love Star Wars so darn much, I wish the PT wasn't so flawed.

As for edits, I think Phantom Editor's work was brilliant. I admit TPM wasn't the film i was hoping to see, but even as the film it was, a childish adventure film, it was highly flawed. Phantom Editor successfully made it a much better childish adventure film (albeit still with a really UNchildish plotline about politics and traderoutes).

I wish AOTC wasn't an awkward teen lovestory interspersed with a mystery that is never solved, but even if I loved awkward teen romances and unresolved mysteries, the film still had major flaws that Phantom Editor made less obnoxious.
