Yet again I have to say that TPM has the best core concept of the three prequel movies and could have been fantastic if only we had a young adult Anakin, and the romance with Padme begins right away.

Not that much of a fan of younger Qui-Gon, though. Liam Neeson added a lot of depth and gravity to the movie. And we already have far too many action star Jedi characters in the prequels.

So, the Geonosians are the Neimodians for TPM pre-production ?

It might be fun to see if James Robinson's performance in Braveheart could be edited into TPM with adjustment.

I had a similar idea for a fan edit. Not that particular actor but generally a late tenn-young 20's Anakin would greatly improve the movie even without much other changes (of course, in addition to drastic Jar-Jar cuts).
