Unfortunately, I didn't manage to mention it here in time, before it too was removed. I presumed it was going to link to the Star Wars:Turn To The Dark Side - Episode 3.1 edit by 'Double Digit' that all the commenters were talking about at that point.but it turned out to be a link to a completely different 3-in-one prequel edit called Star Wars:A Last Hope instead!Īs I was curious to see how it looked, I immediately downloaded it (using RealPlayer). However, when I read through that link, I noticed that there was *another* Vimeo link 14 comments down by someone called haier which was still working at the time. Someone over there also brought up this Star Wars:Turn To The Dark Side - Episode 3.1 edit last week, and linked to these particular comments about it on, even though the Vimeo video had been removed by that point. Here's something I mentioned over on OT.com, so I thought it was worth adding here too. It is fine for interest's sake I guess, but it sure won't change the way you see the films. Maybe I am being harsh, but it just didn't work for me. A few abrupt and awkward cuts and dissolves and the beginning of the end credits scared the hell out of me with how sudden it kicked in. It placed too much importance on Vader within the saga. Last shot is the helmet lowering onto Vader, AFTER the scene where Kenobi hands over Luke on Tatooine. And really, if we could all wish only a single thing away from the PT, it'd be Jar Jar. Considering we have hardly any TPM and there is no scene of a creation of the clone army, Jar Jar doesn't have to be there at all. That's not a bad thing I guess, but the Yoda Palpatine fight is still there. The edit is by far mostly made up of ROTS. I mean, yeah, by all means, PLEASE get rid of as much of TPM as you wish! But either leave enough so we can understand a little (even if the originals barely did.) of what is going on, or just cut it out altogether and start the damn thing with AOTC.and then cut out most of THAT too! As this edit is we just keep getting hit with established characters who clearly have some kind of history. I really don't understand this trend of starting an all in one PT edit with the Maul/Jinn/Kenobi duel. I know the original films did this too, but certainly not to THIS extent. Just too much stuff happening without really knowing why, who, what.nothing. Now, I am not really going to go on too much here.the rest of the review will just be more of this. He is chatting with some obnoxious, surly teen-ish kid who is getting all grumpy and creepy.especially when they meet some sea horse dude with an annoying voice and some grinning girl who immediately goes to bed after some token chit chat about, apparently, someone trying to kill her. There is another beardy guy who looks a lot like the young guy who DIDN'T have a beard before. Oh, some guy with a beard just got run through with a shiney pole.was he a good guy? Should we be upset? Cheering? Who knows? Some little green guy hobbles around and says some stuff to the younger guy in the brown cloak who DIDN'T die, they burn up the beardy dead guy and then it jumps into AOTC. Merely giving the viewer a loose fact about what is going on means that we don't care.
We have no real idea, aside from the vague explanation on the opening crawl, who these people are.
The footage used from TPM does indeed start with the lightsaber duel at the end. I found it improbable that a lone person, Sith or not, would just rock up to a planet to take it over or even just start making some trouble. Technically fine, but content seemed a little off.it was all too simple to explain away the few events that are shown from TPM. People just seem to do things for no reason, as another review above said, Kenobi just seems to kick around aimlessly for a while, always seeming to end up in the right/wrong place. Probably my taste more than anything, but allow me to explain.
