This is my first time watching any Star Wars content. From what I understand and remember I should be watching it in chronological order and I should only watch I-VI since from what I heard that those are the only ones that are actually worth a watch.

Main question

For the original trilogy I've decided to watch the 4K77, 4k80, and 4k83 v1.0 no DNR but I want to know what is the the definitive way to watch the prequels so I wanted to ask which Blu-ray release or fan edit or any release should I look for?

Sorry if I'm asking the wrong community, but I saw a post before in a Star Wars community and it doesn't look like there was much discussion on it.

I don't know if anyone has done special versions of the prequels, so I'd just watch them as-is. George Lucas hasn't re-released a fucked-up version of those (yet, anyway).

In my own opinion, these are the exact versions of the original series I recommend:
05-Star.Wars.4K77.2160p.UHD.no-DNR.35mm.x265-v1.0.mkv
The.Empire.Strikes.Back.1980.D+80.v2.1.UHD.2160p-oohteedee.mkv
03-Return.of.the.Jedi.4K83.35mm.minimalNR.v1.6.UHD.2160p.mkv

Or the 1080p versions if 2k is too much for you. I didn't make notes about why I preferred each one when choosing them a few years ago, so if there are any newer edits you might evaluate them yourself. And apparently Radarr overwrote my selections at one point because none of my file sizes match the table...

What’s the difference between those and Harmy’s despecialized releases?

For the prequels, you want the Anti-cheese Fan-edits.
