I agree almost totally with TMBTM. The emphasis on the distrust is great and the added Rebellion scenes with Mon Mothma work great. You could also add back in the “have you ever thought we may be on the wrong side” discussion between Anakin and Padme after the second of those scenes to really show Anakin doesn’t know who to trust. I also agree with TMBTM that the intro could be shorter. If ANYONE could lose the buzzdroids I’d be ecstatic! Also i have seen edits without the elevator shaft scene so i think that could be lost too. One thing I REALLY like is cutting to Anakin in the Jedi Council Chambers immediately after his confrontation with Palpatine. I’ve always thought his decision to tell mace Windu makes his fall that much more unbelievable and Windu already has said in an earlier scene he is going to arrest Palpatine once Grievous is destroyed. I do think the Anakin/Palpatine scene could be further cut so Anakin doesn’t SAY he is going to turn him in. Also, Mace saying “you are under arrest, my lord” should be cut IMO. Anakin hears him say that and it is much more effective if Anakin simply thinks it’s Mace vs. Palpatiine and both are not to be trusted. Also Anakin wants Palpatine alive so he can save Padme so leaving him to think Mace is definitely going to kill him is more effective. Also, I think the dialogue between Anakin and Obi wan during the Mustafar duel should definitely be cut. The “I have failed you” and everything after. There;s no need for that at this point and the dialogue is clunky to say the least. Overall, from a story perspective, I think you’ve made a huge improvement. I’d simply like to see some deeper cuts and to get the pacing down so it runs closer to 100 minutes, which I feel is a length at which the story can and should be told.

Some technical problems indeed, but still watchable.
This is the first truefanedit of ROTS that I’ve seen and found it quite good.
In the first 40 minutes we now see that Anakin’s mind is already quite twisted by Palapatine. He is already almost a dark character. Which makes his later complete turn to the dark side much more believable.

Speaking of Anakin/Padme love story: less scenes between them, the better. I mean, the purpose of their love story in this episode is that more and more things separate them. So it makes sens to me to cut most of their long scenes.

The opening sequence in Grievous battleship could have been even shorter IMO, but the political plot start very fast after that and is quite interesting and well executed. The reorganization of the scenes really brings some new blood to the movie.

The deleted scenes are very well edited. While they loose a bit the audience about the time that passed (is it the morning, the evening, the next day? etc…) I think it’s a good thing. It shows that the events don’t happens all in a couple of days and also helps to make Anakin’s fall believable. It’s not “Hello I’m the good guy” immediately followed by “now I am the bad guy” anymore. It takes time.
There are plenty of nice smart cuts here and there, and also new voices from time to time, music added etc… so it’s not just changing the order of big scenes.

There are still buzz droids, Palpatine and Yoda jumping everywhere etc… But this edit focused more on the plot than the annoying details.

Maybe a version 2.0 of this edit with less annoying details, a shorter opening act and no more technical problem would be my personal fav.

7/10 for it was a very refreshing and nice way to rediscover this movie.
