I can't give enough praise to Spence's Final Cut(s) of the Star Wars Prequel Trilogy. I have always genuinely WANTED to love the prequels but still hated them. But Spence got rid of everything I hated and created better pacing for the things I liked. Ultimately, it's everything the prequels should have been.
The ONLY thing I'd change about this edit is that I'd like to have seen some small part of our introduction to C3PO left in. I always thought it was cool to know that Anakin originally built Threepio. Watching Spence's cut of the Prequels, Threepio just seems to show up at some point and then he's there.
Don't let that minor thing stop you though. ALL the crap was cut from this movie and everything excellent about it was polished to a mirror sheen. I would NEVER have thought I'd enjoy going back to watch Phantom Menace again but here we are. It's good.
