Thank you so much for your efforts!

I just registered here to thank you after watching the movie.
Finally Episode II has become a movie that I can stand watching start to finish.
This was my least favorite Star Wars Episode, but now it is absolutely worth the time. I enjoyed it quite a bit.
I highly doubt I´ll watch the "Lucas Edit" ever again. And if I do it will only be for comparison.

Thanks again.

A review of the SL DVD release.

This is my go to Episode 2! Thankyou L8wrtr. I'm listening to the audio commentary right now!

A couple little nitpicks a other than that it's perfect, well for me anyway.

- A faded upside-down "crawl" appears flash frame
- I felt "He hired me on Kamino" subtitle could of been on screen a little longer
- Little audio hiccups, such as sounds from cut scenes and music being noticeably faded or cut.

I can't wait to download the Blu Ray and you're other Star Wars releases.

I know I watched at least one workprint of this edit, maybe two, but watching the final version was long overdue. And today I finally did so.

I really enjoyed this edit, and it was an extra treat to see it in HD. Technically the edit is spot-on, with fairly invisible audio and video work. I say "fairly invisible" because there were a few (barely) noticeable audio transitions, which I'm sure I only noticed due to my (some would say insane) familiarity with the original material. While there were some spots where I would have handled things a bit differently, I can safely say that this is as close as anyone will come to editing the movie the way I want to see it (until I decide to try it myself, of course).

I put off watching this too long, but now I can finally put it on my display shelf.

9/10

this is the best in L8 edits of the Star Wars prequels greatly improving the original. Anakin is less of a sulking teenager and a lot more likeable. the deleted scenes as with EP III are a welcome inclusion as they improve the romance between Anakin and Padame.

as others have said they are some niggling errors that are frustrating. I felt the subtitle to the dying shape shifter (her name I don't know) was too quick, and as another viewer committed a little more detective work by Obi-Wan would have improved the story.

Anakin and Padame seem to know C3-PO rather well considering this character was somewhat shortened in EP 1

the fire place scene really didn't need to be there, without this scenes the balcony scene would have worked as a kind of have they / haven't they slept with one another. as it is it's forcing the issue that they have just slept with one another but it's done in such a clumsy manner

I wondered if the scene between Anakin and Padame after he's returned could have been removed, one of main problems with the prequels is the fact that Padame knows that Anakin is a killer yet she still falls in love with and even marries him. this narrative would have worked well with the viewers knowing what our main character has done while Padame doesn't

the final 30min are fantastic, once again listening to the commentary track you beginning to realise just how much has been cut without ever realizing. bobba fett picking up his dead dad's head would have been a welcome cut.

overall like with all three edits I feel to much has been cut while the other two edits only slightly improved the originals this maybe the version I’ll continue to watch

my original EP II score 6/10
my fanedit EP II score 8/10

This edit is awesome. This movie was horrible, but your edit made it watchable, and most importantly, enjoyable!
