Episode III: Revenge of the Ridiculousness
Time

You could make Obi-Wan a little slow...

DOOKU: Your swords, please. We don't want to make a mess of things in front of the Chancellor.

OBI-WAN: Because of the Chancellor.

(Followed by a long, awkward silence, or a hesitant yes from Dooku).

...

OBI-WAN: This time we do it together.

ANAKIN: I was just going to say that. (Or even better, have him repeat his "No, I'm taking him now!" line from AOTC)

OBI-WAN: Because of Master Yoda.

ANAKIN: No...

OBI-WAN: Because of Master Windu.

ANAKIN: No...

etc.

...

ANAKIN: From my point of view the Jedi are evil!

OBI-WAN: Because of...[lists all Jedi he names in the movies in turn.]

Why I dislike Adywans Star Wars revisted

You think it is possible to make the PT look like a 70s movie? LOL

Such a thing is only possible if he remakes the movie from scratch, or perhaps gets the original footage with bluescreens/greenscreens and inserts new background footage. He doesn't have the resources, time, or budget for any of that, I'm afraid, not to mention that he doesn't do CGI modeling himself (or has done very little, at any rate).

Because it would be incredibly difficult to make the PT look like the OT without also bringing the OT more up to date. Would you have preferred him to delete most of the ships in the PT battles rather than adding them in the Yavin battle, which he did seamlessly? Or how about the holographic displays? Would you rather he stuck with the displays in the OT which are far below the level of what we have today, in what is supposed to be a more advanced society, and instead removed the PT displays and made them look like they were from the seventies (or earlier, since the PT takes place between 30 and 20 years before the OT, in-universe)?

Adywan's intention was to bring the movies into the present so that the Star Wars saga could look more uniform in its visual style. His intention was to create an alternate special edition, not to replace Star Wars or to restore it to its 1970s state, which has already been done.

His changes had logic behind them, and many of them fixed mistakes with the movies, or helped make the movie more visually consistent with the prequels. The SE left many errors as is, and added many silly things that weren't necessary or wanted.

You said you watched the entire OT in the morning. In order for that to work, you must logically have started around 5:30 (unless you're a time traveler, like Bingowings).

 I got up one Saturday morning and started watching the OT. It would've been around 6 or 7, and would've concluded some time shortly after noon. So I spent that entire Saturday morning watching the OT. No time travel needed.

 *sigh* Joke fail on my part.
