I think JMO is familiar with most of the details about all the popular prequel fanedits, if my memory is correct. This is almost definitely going to turn into a midichlorian conversation, by the way.
I don’t know if there is a consensus on favorites, but l8wrtr’s is indeed probably the best well known complete trilogy of very high quality. Around this forum in the last year or two, I would definitely say Hal’s have the most momentum and are preferred by many.
What about octorox’s edit how does his compare to hal’s and l8wrtr’s.
Not sure. I might take a look once people consider it finished and polished. As far as his cuts, you can take a look here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/179rtro9Lq-jwlEWSoYkd97yGME7UIMg1-SPRgJ8SDbs/edit
I like the idea, but it depends on whether the execution holds up.
