Star Wars 30's Serial Edition Part 1

Not going to say much, because a lot has been said previously, HOWEVER, I do have to say that this edit really is fantastic. I’ve only watched Episode 1 so far, but its fantastic. So much of the movie was taken out to make it a much faster paced, more enjoyable movie. Nothing worth keeping was left out, and everything in it is great. Awesome use of music. Everything was great. I’m looking forward to watching the rest of the movies like this!

I can’t tell you how happy this edit made me. I’m still downloading the OT version, but wanted to watch the prequels first, because I hated them so much, and really needed a new way to experience them that I thought might be enjoyable.

First of all, you did what I thought was impossible. You actually made me enjoy the pod race. Previously I thought it was close to the worst part of the trilogy, now I actually found it the most enjoyable part of the trilogy. It was so kinetic, and tense, and well executed that at times I found I was forgetting to breath in enough air. I cannot say enough about what a good editing job this was.

Admittedly I was a little slow at first to warm-up to watching the films in this way. I don’t really like dialogue cards, so that was turning me off at first. But I was pleased to see how sparingly you used them. And unlike Stonehenge’s review, I don’t think it was a problem that a few times a chracter was shown talking, but with no dialogue card. I think it was usually understandable what the character was probably talking about, and I liked not being taken out of the action at these times.

Great job.
