I was looking forward to seeing the fan edit 'Attack of the Clones: The Alternate Timeline' by SomethingSWRelated. A year or two ago I remembered being subscribed to his YouTube channel for more behind the scenes videos and updates on the edit. I was so bummed to find out recently that he has abandoned the whole project and fan editing. I can't even find the posts he's made on OriginalTrilogyDotCom.

Even though it seems the project was scrapped partly because the work load was too much for him, I would still like to know more about the cancelled project. I am currently working on a prequel fan edit of my own and would like to adopt some of his ideas. For example one idea I loved from his edit that I saw from one of his now deleted YouTube videos was cutting out Dex from AOTC. He did this by giving translated subtitles to the Changling assassin as they are dying from the poisoned dart. Telling Obi-Wan in it's alien language with it's dying breath "Kamino... System." I love this idea way more than having Obi-Wan visit the bad looking cgi Dex. This is an idea I will definitely use for my own edit.

So if anyone has more info on this abandoned edit, anything you can remember then please let me know.

I once had a dream that I was an assistant to Tony Stark and he was on his way to compete in a foot race at the Olympics. But I failed to provide him with his sunscreen before he left the hotel. So I made the decision to get my bike and rush over there to give him his sunscreen. But before I left I decided to act all cool and inspirational in front of some kid passing by "Hey kid, turn on channel 5 at 2pm, cuz you're about to see some Frickin Wicked Shit. And get hella inspired!"

I start hauling ass and zig-zag my way through traffic like a mad man. I felt like Joseph Gordon Levitt in Premium Rush. Eventually I stop, sitting down behind a Walmart after riding through the store for a shortcut. As I am taking a breather, out of nowhere come Ian and Anthony from Smosh walking towards me. They are homeless and offer me some drugs to snort. I think to myself "The years have not been so kind on them after they lost the channel." The drugs they gave me puts a real pep in my step and I make it to the Olympics arena. But because of the drugs filling me with so much energy I can't stop moving.

I sprint onto the track just as the runners are in the middle of their race. I run passed Mr. Stark who looked pissed and sun-burnt. But I was too high to care about anything except running off all this energy. I was clutching onto the bottle of sunscreen like a runners baton. I beat all the runners, I even run around the track multiple times before I couldn't take it anymore. I get stopped by some news reporters asking me who I am and how I felt after beating all the runners. My only response before collapsing was "LONG LIVE MR FUDGE TRUCK!" So I am on the floor have a seizure in a puddle of my own throw up. The news cameras broadcast the whole thing live. Tony Stark all pissed walks over stands over me as I am still seizing. He says to me "You're fired." Then an announcer's voice says that because I was on drugs (which was obvious given the powder all over my face and erratic behavior) and was not signed up to compete, I was automatically disqualified from winning the race and Tony Stark won for coming in second.

Meanwhile, the little kid I spoke to at the beginning of this weird dream is watching the whole thing on TV in his hotel room with family, he says "I don't feel inspired at all." Then he switches to another TV channel. END OF DREAM.
