Info Wanted: Have there been any decent edits of TPM which try a different opening scene?

I’m nearly done with my edit of TPM, and while a few things are rendering, I’ve been toying with editing a different opening scene. The particular one I’m messing with is having the opening crawl/starfield pan down to the Neimoidian invasion of Naboo. It’s halfway decent, but it got me wondering if there have been any edits that do something similar, or try for a different opening entirely.

Any suggestions? I’d be interested in seeing one.

I’ve seen a lot of people take the opening of TPM and go right into the maul battle (most that do this are prequel combinations where they edit all 3 into one long movie) other than ones like that I’ve never seen a whole new opening, im sure it could be done btw im super excited to hear that this is almost done I cant wait

I think the lone gungan edition has a different opening.

So does yours

No offense, kid, but I don’t think you know how to boil water.

Smithers’ planned edit starts with the Queen’s ship leaving Naboo and attacking the Trade Federation ship

I’m interested to see how you edit it all together if that’s the approach you’re going for, I look forward to it.
