I seem to recall there being a pretty good fan edit that condensed it down into one long movie and cut out all the unnecessary love triangle stuff.

I can wouch for this one. Very well done. I wish they cut out more Alfrid time though.
Alfrid makes me understand why people hate Jar Jar so much.
You like Jar Jar?
I like Darth Jar Jar. I want video genAI to execute what it was really built for and replace Dooku with DarthJar.
Like is a strong word I think. I don't mind him. But I was a kid when Phantom Menace came out, I didn't really fully experience the original trilogy before I saw it. So that's why - for a kid it's a fun goofy comic relief. So might have liked him back then, which moved my tolerance for him in adulthood. Didn't see the movie in years though.
LotR is sacred to me on a similar level like the SW original trilogy was sacred to the die hard SW fans back then, probably. I can't say I hated the Hobbit movies (though they are clearly inferior - the edit really saved them), but I hate Alfrid with everlasting passion.
