only Jar-Jar? 

Alien

Hopefully, *most* of Episodes I-III will be left on the cutting room floor. Take the whole flipping "saga" and condense it to 2 hours - about right for the amount of actual plot...

Two hours?

That should be enough to cover the plot of the entire series and still leave 1 hour and 58 minutes to do something interesting.

Paris, because she could do something interesting in two hours.
