Topher Grace Screens Star Wars Prequel Re-edit

silentbrad writes "/Film (as well as IGN and A.V. Club) reports about Topher Grace's fan re-edit of the Star Wars prequel trilogy into a single, 85-minute film titled Star Wars: Episode III.5: The Editor Strikes Back.' Quoting /Film: 'His idea was to edit the Star Wars prequels into one movie, as they would provide him a lot of footage to work with. He used footage from all three prequels, a couple cuts from the original trilogy, some music from The Clone Wars television series, and even a dialogue bit from Anthony Daniels' (C-3PO) audio book recordings. He even created a new opening text crawl to set up his version of the story.' It continues with what stayed and what was cut. It's just too bad it was a one-time-only screening."

    Oh, for fuck's sake, STOP REMIXING OLD CRAP. It won't be good, ever. You can't put lipstick on a pig. Take this "creative energy" (i.e. making entertainment product) and put it towards something actually useful. Have you considered learning calculus? It is immensely more rewarding, moreover it is the language of science. You know, that "science" stuff that everyone is always in favor of? Just think of the civilizational advances that would come from learning mathematics instead of motion picture editing. Ah, who am I kidding? We all know the future is in entertainment where nobody can say you're wrong...not like those despicable hard sciences where conclusions are falsifiable.
