I really wish I could help. I would think it would be awkward 'acting' along side Natalie Portman not there and all. And stuff.
Thanks, Chaltab. Yes, it will be difficult, but there's an element of fun, as well, creating the illusion that I'm talking with this particular actress.
I'll post some more soon.
And now to address the difficult question of: Jar-Jar. Jar-Jar presents a real dilemma for me. I still don't know whether I'm going to use the original voice, dub him using English, or do an alien language with subtitles. I'm worried that I won't have the time to redo Episode I with an alien language for Jar-Jar. The problem with dubbing him in English is a lack of a capable voice actor. At one point, I was toying the idea of Jar-Jar with a Scottish accent.
Anakin: I've thought about her every day since we parted...and she's forgotten me completely.
Jar-Jar: Maybe that's for the best, lad.
A little too silly, though, and tricky to pull off.
Also, if you DO decide to redo alien voices maybe some of us could help out with that as A) it would save you from having to do all of them, B) those would be 'lines' could be trimmed or sped up/slowed if need be and C) it would just be fun!

Trooperman, your edit is by far the most extensive yet, and if you can pull it all off, I'd definitely want a copy!
I'll mail you a disc when I'm done; perhaps even dual-layer with commentary.
Will it still be "Attack of the Clones" or are you changing the title and opening scroll?
I'd love to change the scroll, but I don't have the technology to do so. Perhaps someone who does could create one specifically for this edit, using text I have written as the scroll.
Are there any other signifigant changes you're making that you'd like to share with us at this time?

That would be absolutely wonderful. I just don't know if anyone would have the interest and time to do a professional-sounding job. Because I'd rather go with the original dialogue than use an amateur-sounding track.
Thanks for all the interest! I'll post some more soon.
