Thanks for the feedback Statto :)

1 - Agree here mostly. I'm awful at audio work, so a lot of the longer sequences where I haven't cut anything are due to that. I've considered (with permission of course) refining this edit by splicing in L8wrtr's opening sequence to replace mine - the Trade Federation is greatly improved with some of those small dialogue changes he made, and shaves a bit more time off the edit.

2 - I needed to sew the seeds of the Anakin/Padme obsession/romance, and by my eliminating nearly ever other scene they are in together, the introduction scene was a necessary evil. Otherwise, they have no real scenes together at all. I also believe that the lines aren't that bad, just delivered badly - I mocked this up a while back http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BV-P39TOOBM

3 - Agree here. I'm not sure I had bluray ripping capabilities when I made the edit, otherwise I would've used the bluray as a source, which would have included cgi yoda.

4 - The lack of the Gungan's battle at the end originally left it feeling uneven. Keeping the grappling sequence kept everything even in terms of pacing and time spent on each piece of what was happening.

5 - I considered leaving the Qui-Gon funeral footage in. However, we already know that there are two sith lords, and that the apprentice was killed - we don't need it spelled out for us by Mace and Yoda. Obi-Wan telling Anakin he will train him is unnecessary, as we just heard Yoda tell Obi-Wan this. The Palpatine "hint" at the end is rediculous and far too obvious. I also tried to avoid any scene where other Gungan's were seen - It just makes you wonder who Boss Nass is and why he is there. All of those added up to me leaving it out.

Thanks for watching. :)
