The Boonta Eve redux of the Obi-Wan series made that series about as good as the source material would allow it, it was an absolutely phenomenal edit.

Are there similar edits of episodes 1 through 3, and if there are, is there a consensus on which edit is the best so that I could try rewatching them?

You want Topher Grace’s edit:

And yes, it’s the same Topher Grace of “That 70’s Show” and “Spiderman 3”.

Unfortunately it’s pretty hard to find. I haven’t looked very hard for a while, but if I see an easy link I’ll leave another comment.

Wow, 85 minutes seeeeems short. I do like topher Grace, though, I believe he'd do a good edit. Have you seen the 85 minute prequel cut?

I saw the trailer for it he released and supposedly there was a release of the whole thing but it’s impossible to find on mainstream sites. His five min edit of all the movies was quite good too. Like a long trailer for the whole story.

Not so much hard to find as never released, it sounds like?

Which makes sense of course.

Yeah that does seem to be the case. Im probably misremembering the details as it was ten years ago that I first heard about it.
