Finally watched TOTR & TBKR.  These edits are simply outstanding!  Thanks, JasonN.  If adywan is the master of Episode IV, then JasonN is certainly the master of fixing the prequel trilogy.  It is not only more thoroughly enjoyable now, but makes much more logical sense in its own right, as well as in connection to the OT.

There's probably too much to write about here as far as my likes/dislikes, so I'll save it for a review sometime on fanedit, but, basically I really enjoyed this version of the PT, and fully agree with almost every change that was made. (minor quibbles being simply inevitable in the realm of fan-edits).

And I was initially hesitant about the second two films, because I personally didn't mind seeing Yoda duel (which I gather JasonN despises).  But after having watched the films, I will admit, it's the right choice and it keeps the focus on Anakin where the prequels should belong anyway.

My favorite stuff: the blue crawl, all of Episode I, Jango's voice modulator (that was amazing, it actually kind of sounds like original Boba Fett), Count Dooku not being a Sith (love this plot element), radically better love story development between Anakin and Padme, and most all of Episode III.

My wish list: repaint the color of that yellow speeder Anakin uses to chase Zam (black, perhaps).  Also, repaint Yoda's lightsaber back to green. jk :) [By the by, I believe Windu's lightsaber is purple because Samuel L. Jackson specifically asked Lucas if he could have a purple one.]
