Here's my alternate V2 opening rough cut, there are many changes from V1, a longer V3 is also in the works, so I can choose which one to use.

This is a very rough cut of the first few minutes of my Episode II edit. It has some technical issues still and is missing a scene yet to be inserted.

It does have the filmic adjustments, but no color correction, grain, or slight technicolor emulation has been added.

Changes:

-Now starts with scenes explaining the current atmosphere of the republic, the want for a new clone army, as the current army is low in numbers.

-supports new plot of the film

-Anakin and Padme have been friends for a while. They know each other well, and have worked together before. This supports a natural progression towards their love.

-Dooku has captured Obi-Wan at the beginning, establishing him as the "bad guy" from the start. This edit will even show Dooku more consistently throughout the film.

-Starting here, the film begins much more exciting and in a very similar way to ROTJ.

- references to plot elements that have been completely changed in the edit have been eliminated.

-several changes have been made from V1, this version is longer and contains new exposition.
