On topic, there’s some viewing order thoughts here (specifically here) and here.
Thanks, gonna read, but I’ll go with B order. I’ve seen the marathon in release order and chronological order (both unsatisfactory) but never the PT inbetween and never with edited versions, so I basically want to make my friend cry of joy.
@TV’s Frink Staph! Stahp.
It’s your thread, so if you want to eat steak and call yourself a vegetarian, or make up words like “staph” or “stahp,” I guess that’s your call. I won’t say another word.
Come on man, it’s just a pun. Google them words, you’ll understand. Anyway, I exaggerated and I’m sorry. But hey, you do get that you were pretty off-topic with your quibble. Right? It’s self explanatory that if in this board someone writes about machete, and whatnot, he knows it’s meaning. And if the meaning itself is not the original one but a twisted for a purpose one, well, f it.
@darthrush Guess you’re right, thanks bro.
@Hal 9000 Wow, HAL! Thanks for your answer man, you totally convinced me. I’ll go with B and your edits for this ordeal. After all the “machete” objective is exactly watching the saga as a Luke story and with your edits I think my friend will be blown away. Man I’m jealous of him, watching PT edit in a marathon like this for the first time will be awesome. Kudos!

@MalàStrana R1? Whats that!? Oh, you mean the new let’s make some more money out of the franchise disney movie. Okay.
I would go with B. Put the prequel trilogy all together. If you like Q2, then do that. Personally, I would do all Hal’s. His Phantom Menace feels like not only an improved version but a version that still feels like a complete movie.
Yeah, maybe a full HAL would be the best (with B). Mainly 'cause Q2 do not really sit well as a whole in the “machete”.
Thanks. Still waiting more opinions.
This is not Machete. Machete cuts out TPM, hence the name.
My friendsa wantsa the fulla trilogy.
P.s.: some neat advice, on my doubts, would be really appreciated.
Hi guys,
This is my first post. Kudos to every Editor and everyone involved in the board/projects!
Now to the point.
Me and a friend of mine want to watch the whole shebang, TPM and VII included.
Yes, we gonna cry blood and commit Seppuku afterwards, but w/e.
So, the first doubts arise with TPM placement.
Introductory or full prequel abomination voyage inbetween OT?
Basically like this:
A) I > IV > V > II > III > VI > VII
OR
B) IV > V > I > II > III > VI > VII
And the second doubt is which fan edit of PT to go for. I do like both Q2 and HAL but never watched them in machete, not even the full PT as a whole, but always with some days of pause between episodes (YKWIM).
Q2 and HAL are my preferred and I gonna stick to them. Please do not advice on other edits.
So, which one do you guys think would be best for the “Machete + TPM A/B” order? Full Q2 or full HAL?
Or mix them up? I do love Q2 TPM more, but HAL ROTS delivers a better Anakin/Vader transformation overall. AOTC it’s a 50/50 for me.
So maybe Q2 TPM as introductory (A order) and HAL for the rest?
Thanks a lot in advance guys, I’m asking mainly because this friend of mine never saw a fan edit of the PT and I want him to have the best experience possible.
