    EDITS: (minus things that are just rearranged or omitted as 5 hours of movies are cut here). Revision. Removed error with a double scene, new edit Geonosis. Changed romance/song scene a bit. Cleaned up many transitions.
    THE PHANTOM MENACE: Short line from Obi-Wan from Episode 4 (as this should be viewed in Machete Order and after Vader claims he is Luke's father) about the old republic before custom opening crawl to clear up questions people might have about how Anakin got into space on a ship. Edited space battle with Maul fight as the start of the film. Maul fight music before Obi-wan engages Maul made more primal from original soundtrack. Edited Darth Sidious scene from earlier in original film to make it clear he is behind this. Anakin gives Padme his carving before he leaves Naboo to begin his Jedi training while Padme looks to be dressed incognito visiting his departing ship. Anakin's departing conversation with his mother occurs as a flashback MUCH later and during Attack of the Clones timeline after vision about his mother.
    ATTACK OF THE CLONES: 10 years later text added at start of film. Changed alien text to make it clear Padme is the ex Queen when introduced with Palpatine, which could be confusing. Heavily edited assassination attempt, music and sound during it and car chase. Edited bar scene to make it feel a little more exciting. Added deleted scene with Obi-wan and dart to transition to shortened diner scene. Edited later romantic scenes with music from the soundtrack. It works visually without the dialogue. Anakin never mentions he hates Sandpeople children or that he killed them to Padme and instead promises her he will be the most powerful Jedi ever, before breaking down and crying. Star Wars sad medley is played over it while Padme comforts him. This is again to make the love story more believable. Assembly line scene is skipped, with Jango capturing Padme/Anakin. Padme's love confession before arena event is edited and shorter. Arena event is HEAVILY edited and shortened to be more of a rescue from Mace Windu. There is only one creature that is there because Jango Fett kills it. Yoda does not fight Dooku as it never made sense to me from a Sith/Jedi power level perspective. He is also old and his fight with Palpatine should be seen as a last ditch effort, which is why he has to go into exile.
    REVENGE OF THE SITH: Three years later text before film. Edited space battle to be MUCH shorter and a little comic relief from Artoo as the gates to the ship where Palpatine is being held close. Artoo whistles to let Anakin/Obiwan know he can take them to Dooku. Crash landing made a little more exciting/shorter. Palpatine's talk with Anakin at concert edited to remove Midicholorians/Grievous and other repetition. Palaptine attacks Mace Windu and company faster with his first strike after landing, so it looks like they had no time to react. Removed Palpatine's message to Mustafar and dialogue before Anakin kills them because it made no sense. Anakin should believe he is doing "good" in a twisted way, by assassinating separatists, which a Jedi would never do. I believe he would find out later the Emperor played him for a fool, but it is too late to change the past. Anakin on Mustafar and Emperor's speech edited together and shortened with multiple video tracks. Anakin no longer says "you will try". Yoda Palpatine fight shortened and Yoda no longer looks up after he falls with disdain for emperor. Yoda doesn't say he must go into exile immediately. He just says he failed. Anakin/Obi-wan fight on tower shortened with Obi-wan swinging to the small platform in the lava immediately. Leia's name not revealed for Machete Order purposes. Vader's first breath is Padme's last breath. Ending with TFA trailer music and video mostly synced to things happening on screen.

    Newest version with several changes and shorter running time is here. For some reason I can't get permission to post it on youtube, but it seems to stream ok with the link. All disclaimers apply. drive.google.com/file/d/1n2Tuh6t01mkcU6tqndqthUAjKpQLKbn9/view Main changes. Reinserted edited elevator ride with Obi-wan and Anakin before they meet Padme. Solved following continuity problems 1) Have injured Obi-wan being carried to the bridge of the ship that is landed at the start of ROTS. More Obi-wan dialogue post landing. 2) Show Dooku trying to escape on speeder with the ships and Anakin and Obi-wan spotting him to show how they got separated from Yoda.
    Removed things not essential to the plot the or already shown in another capacity and cleaned up some conversations with edits I overdid and where there was a simpler solution. Example start of Anakin/Palpatine concert scene to get Anakin in the seat. Other changes include editing post Shmi death where it just pans down as if she is looking down on Anakin at the funeral instead of the conversation with Padme where he says the exact same thing he says at the grave. I like that scene but I felt my initial edit didn't work due to the camera angles. Edited start of Obi-wan interrogation with Dooku to skip the line about "oh no there must be a mistake". Cleaned up post Mace Windu death so that the first thing on Anakin's mind is Padme, since that is the major catalyst for him turning to the dark side. Removed Dooku flip and line about Sith Lords being Obi-wan's specialty since he's kind of have a tough time with them so far. I think Obi-wan had enough flair without that line and Dooku is more intimidating without the flip.
    Other than that just transition fixes. This will probably be the last edit as I am really happy with it other than the scrolling intro. I should have made it more flowery, but I kept it real simple because I know some people have a hard time reading it. I should have put something like "While battle rages in the skies above, Darth Maul hunts Queen PADME AMIDALA below" Then next paragraph "Answering the child Queen's pleas for help Jedi Master Qui Gon Jinn and young Obi-Wan Kenobi have arrived from Tatooine" The rest was fine.
    Anyways thanks for all the kind comments and I hope you had fun watching the edits. I think George Lucas is a great man and I always loved the world building and imagination him and his team showed in these movies. I tried to keep the shots with his daughter in as well since I feel they were very important to him and maybe why he decided to make these movies and why older people thought they were a bit flawed. He was a father and like all fathers he wanted to make his kids happy. For children I think the prequels are great as is and I think when he started the prequels kids were his main target audience. While a lot of us were older and there when the OT came ( I still remember watching both Empire and ROTJ at the theater and crying with others when Yoda died) , many kids loved the prequels growing up and it was only when they got older they wished they were a little different. I think he tried to listen to the fans as well on Revenge of the Sith.
    This man meant a great deal to us growing up. Not just in movies but in video games and pioneering sound and tech. My first big paycheck as a young man I went out and bought a THX certified Carver Power Amplifier. I grew up on the Lucas Arts adventure games. I hope that people are now beginning to understand how much a part of him was in Star Wars. When Jamie Lannister (Tyr) who is essentially Anakin Skywalker, has his arc finish in Game of Thrones I hope they appreciate the prequel trilogy for doing it first. Maybe people will also notice JK Rowling copied all the story beats from the OT for Harry Potter. Thank you George Lucas and the Lucasfilm team for everything.

      @@alecthom4001 Disney killed it/reported it and got it shut down. Nothing I can do about it. This is what happens when you aren't a Disney sycophant that kisses their ass on their new awful films. They are hypocrites who can't take any criticism, while their shills attacked all the prequels and Lucas 24/7. All they really killed though was my love for Star Wars and made me not ever want to support them again. So as Obi-wan said..."Good job /s". I will care about the franchise again when Disney loses ownership or all the trash they made has been declared non Canon or "legends" and they make KOTOR and the Thrawn trilogy canon again and fire everyone working at "Disney Lucasfilm." I refuse to support, advertise or defend the IP in any way. The quicker they lose money and kill their own IP the better imo. I was one of the franchises biggest fans. Now? If someone asks me about Star Wars, I will simply say it sucks. TLJ made everything before it pointless. It's completely broken and simply bad and not worth discussing anymore. The next Sci-fi movie or property I will be remotely interested in will be the new Dune movie as Star Trek is just as bad now.

    In any re-edit of AOTC, you have to include the deleted scenes of Anakin with Padme's family. There's probably 5 minutes of material there that goes a LONG way to making their relationship much more realistic. He's actually a likable guy in those scenes and her family thinks they're secretly dating already. Those scenes do a lot to show what Padme might see in him.

    The biggest thing missing from this is a very needed change in dialogue for one line.
    Obi Wan: "Why do I get the sense that you're going to be the death of me?"
    Anakin: "Don't say that master. You're the closest thing I have to a father."
    Obi Wan: "[I see. Well, that would explain why you don't listen to me.]"
    Ya see? It echos Qui Gon.

    Well done. A very enjoyable watch. The essence of Anakin's character in his rise and fall is better seen when the extraneous material is cut out. Better editing and story decisions would have improved them, but this work proves that they still tell a compelling story in the Star Wars saga. I was surprised that there was more chemistry between Padme and Anakin than I remember--maybe that is because you edited the more "painful" interactions out. Perhaps the best praise I can offer your edit is that it shows that the prequels are still very good movies. The heart of a very good story is there. Something just fell short in the execution in places with Lucas's theatrical versions.

    • @hackintosh3899
      @hackintosh3899  7 років тому +40

      Yeah there is a very good Shakespeare type tragedy there. The romance dialogue sounding like it was Shakespeare didn't really fit though in a space opera, so I cut a lot of it. I still think it is visually beautiful and Lucas has been maligned when he is a wonderful director visually. I also never saw the prequels as a kid, so maybe children like a lot of the kid stuff. I don't mind the Ewoks, because I saw them as a kid. They also came off kind of like Hobbits and as Max Landis said it's awesome that they were seen as so little of a threat the Emperor wasn't even aware of them. That theme of the smallest people can make the biggest difference is something I have always liked and he did the same thing with Willow. I think if Lucas had made it one Braveheart length film it would have been better. I think he simply wanted to give people what he thought they wanted though. More Star Wars, world building and he had children when he made the prequels, who he probably wanted to make a movie for as well. I think it's a shame Lucas has been attacked so much over the prequels.
      I enjoy Red Letter Media mostly, buy I think people will eventually realize how much Lucas meant to Star Wars (creativity) in the future and realize that attacking him with such vitriol was wrong. Especially with the lack of creativity in Hollywood now days.

    • @Swinbad
      @Swinbad 7 років тому +7

      I was and have never been bothered by the ewoks. Grew up watching the originals, enjoyed the prequels more than more. But again, this edit really helps focus the narrative. I do think that some of the deleted scenes from Episode 3 would have made the story even more compelling (the ones which develop a sub-plot where Padme helps plan the early stages of the rebellion, which helps make more sense of the end when Padme confronts Anakin, and then he flips out to see Obi-Wan). But this edit is really good and I appreciate the work you put into it!

      Every film has a nugget of good story that can be polished out of it and condensed with highly selective editing; that doesn't make it a good story, even if the potential was there. Good story is good execution of consistent characters, well rendered drama, clear arcs, as well as a believable showing and not telling. This fan-edit, which is about thirty minutes shorter than the shortest film in the trilogy, shows that there was a salvageable storyline peppered and stretched over three films, which... is noteworthy. The editor's work was though, and I applaud them for that. What makes this fan edit *feel* so much better than the Prequels is that the editor eliminates entire acts from the movies, lore that undermines the very spirit of Star Wars, and poorly written dialogue that fails to meaningfully depict sensible and distinct characters. I *just* finished the Prequel trilogy again, which is probably why the algorithm suggested this to me, and that's likely why this is so fresh in my mind.

You made the romance story work! I fell asleep every time I went to see one of the prequels in the movie theatre. This one kept me awake the entire time!

      That is in the prequelmemes edit. Seeing I can't get Disney to ok a final release where I solved some continuity errors getting to the Dooku fight, Obi-wan getting carried out of the second Dooku duel, added Obi-wan dialogue in the elevator, post crash landing and shaved like 2.5 minutes, I highly doubt they would ok that one. :) They actually own the prequels in their entirety, unlike A New Hope. To be honest I'm just hoping Disney doesn't shut down my KOTOR remaster mod which is almost done. It's like 7 or 8 gigs with all the textures and I will probably have to host the entire override folder. I started really going to town on it now that they shut down the Apeiron remaster. I understand why they had to do it, but hope they allow just texture swaps and a all in one mod, where hopefully people can just copy it to their override/module/sound directories and it "just works". Then again I could have modders shut it down to, even though I will try to credit anything I used (which is going to be hard seeing some textures are from an obscure russian mod where I have no idea who is the source), even when the modders basically recreate things from intellectual property they don't own lol.
      The fun of edits. :)

    I really liked this edit, much more of a dense story, it must've taken you so much time to edit this and i really appreciate it, came out awesome! Some feedback would be that some scenes felt like they cut out too much leaving us guessing sometimes what happened before. Sometimes also leave a second or two extra too to keep the emotional impact and not cut directly to the next scene. Would've liked some more qui-gon and grievous too personally. But overall a really great edit! With everything unfolding in a much more quicker manner I made more connections too to why people acted like they did and felt like I understood everything better!

  • @TraceurNath
    @TraceurNath 5 років тому +36

    Overall it's certainly enjoyable, and I appreciate you doing this and sharing it. My thoughts:
    I don't see how you can have the end to AOTC without Yoda. Dooku would have executed Obi and Ani without Yoda at least showing up. If not for himself, for his Master, I can't reconcile this.
    I also personally hold ROTS in high regard and think it was unnecessarily taken apart, but I really liked the alternate ending and some of the clean-up.
    The reimagining of the Ani/Padme romance in AOTC was fucking masterful.

There were some parts that the edit was kinda missed like When you see Padme with a complete shirt and then she has a crop top because of the fight with the beast in the stadium was cut out.

    IMO, you shouldn't have removed Grevious. Without him and without an explanation via the crawl, the audience doesn't know why Palpatine was kidnapped and by whom. The jedi just stroll up to the ship with no background info other than "the Chancellor is on the observation deck at the top of the spire"

    Before the prequel trilogy, i imagined the prehistory quite differently. Obiwan would still have been a jedi padawan, Amidala was still the queen of Naboo; but i imagined Anakin to have been a rookie teenage pilot around the same age as Luke and a member of the galactic fleet. He would’ve had latent force powers that explained his excellent piloting skills and would cross paths with Quai gon and Obiwan in their quest to protect Amidala. Quai gon would recommend Anakin to be a jedi to the council but as anakin is already too old, the council would advise against it. But with Quai gon’s insistence, they would relent and so begins the adventure of the three Jedi: Quai gon, Obi wan and Anakin. The romance would still exist between Anakin and Amidala (which wouldn’t be as creepy, since they would be around the same age) and would be a deterrent to anakin achieving full Jedi hood, since he can’t fully let go of human frailties as love expected of Jedi knights. Because of his love of Amidala, he abandons the jedi and joins the sith and becomes Darth Vader. That’s how i imagined it.

    I've hated the prequels for decades (and I'm old enough to have seen the original movies as an adult). But I kind of loved this. It recaptured the one thing the modern movies don't have: the sense of majesty that is essential to Star Wars. The modern movies seem to mistake mere scale for grandeur. A good Star Wars movie should feel like it comes from the Golden Age of Hollywood, maybe even the Silent Era. It should tell a story visually, not just enhance the story with flashy visuals. By focusing on the characters you've managed to restore that to these films and to remind me of why I used to be such a devotee of the originals. Thank you.
