I'm a original OT purist, but I still like the prequels here and there. It's been a minute since I've watched ROS, but man does this movie slap. The pacing is full tilt, and every scene feels so important and heavy. Ok, the love scenes still suck, but hey. The over use of cgi still bugs me a bit about the prequels, but it doesn't ruin the movie. I'm not sure what it was this time around, but man it was super captivating. I'm thinking what really had me smiling is that you could tell Lucas was behind it, and he put his creative love and touch on it. The Disney films just don't have that.....Anywho, give it a watch if it's been a while.

Are there any good fan-edits of ep 3, that keep the good and remove the sucky parts?

Oh yeah.

The Fulcrum Cut is the best. Since the most recent season of Clone Wars occurred concurrently with the events of Episode III in the timeline, some nerd somewhere spliced the season in with the film and it's a glorious 4-hour journey.

HIGHLY recommended.

I watched the Anti-Cheese edits years ago, but I'm not sure where to find them these days. Phantom Menace was the most changed film.
