It's a long article, so here's a snippet:
Last year, "That 70's Show" star Topher Grace made his own fan edit of the Star Wars prequels. The entire trilogy was slashed from an original runtime of a combined 415 minutes to a single film that ran for a quick 85. Aside from a small handful of private screenings, his version has never seen the light of day (to avoid copyright infringement).
But there are lots of other fan-edits out there. Five months ago, YouTuber Andrew Kwan released his own version of the prequel trilogy, which clocks in at two hours in length. And it's pretty damn good.
Let's go over Kwan's edit and highlight how it salvages the prequel mess into something actually palatable. And believe me - it's more than just cutting back on the Jar Jar scenes.
