Disney “cannon” is… just… not cannon to me. I’ve read so many Star Wars books, seen all the movies several times (still believe Hal9000’s versions are the best).

I never liked that Disney stepped in and said “oh by the way, all those books (100+), comics and games are no longer cannon because we said so”.

I will keep an eye out to see what they actually do with this. I just hope they have SOME respect for all the CANNON that is already out there, and don’t try and rewrite it all.

Thanks for saying so, and I’m always glad to hear these are being enjoyed. Ep3 can be a doozy for people who enjoyed the first two, so I’d be curious to hear your reaction to it as well.

I watched it last night after watching the original version. Again, much better pacing. MUCH better. Everything fit much better. Being a fan of the Clone Wars and Rebels, I liked that you chopped out a lot of nonsense, and whiny Anakin, which made him feel more akin to Anakin of the Clone Wars series. Overall this is such a better version.

These for sure replace the originals for me. I haven’t gotten to watch your other cuts yet, but I plan to, including Episode I. I had a copy of “The Ancient Lore” which I thought was “OK”. But having seen your other two, I plan on seeing them all.

Again, incredible work!

Hal… I don’t want to come across as a fan boy but you’ve done an amazing job on these. I just got done watching Episode II of yours and what a difference. The day before I had watched the original version. Your version is so much more enjoyable and the pace is much better. In some ways I wish, had Disney not gotten their dirty little hands on Lucasfilms, that this would be the OFFICIAL version.

I’m off to watch Episode III!

Thank you again!

This is top of my list to see. I’m amazed at how much work you put into these. Its incredible that there are people like you out there doing this to improve the films! if only I could get my hands on the raw blue screen footage.

Anyway, how does one go about getting a copy?

I have read so much about this version and I am dying to see it. The amount of work that has been put in is amazing.

I would love to get a full copy if possible. I am a little hesitant to PM the creator because I’m new here and he probably gets way too many PMs as it is.

But any help in getting this would be appreciated. Thanks!
