I think the funniest part in Ep3 was when Palpatine appeared as a hologram Darth Sidius (anyone else notice darth can be swapped with "in" for most of the sith?) and my dad asked me (rather loudly) "isn't that the chancellor?"
Ep1-3 has only proved what I thought all along, George Lucas can't direct for toffee, has no idea what his own story is about (remember, ep6 was going to be called
REVENGE of the Jedi, when we'd been told several times the Jedi do not seek revenge! Hello George, did you actually read anything that you wrote??)
Personally, I'm going to ignore Ep1-3 and pray they don't affect the post RotJ books in any way as the continuity in those is fantastic and even the bad ones are much better written than eps1-3.
Maybe we'll get lucky and George will give up the rights so someone better can come along and remake them properly.
Anyway, must get back to my book to find out how Luke's son (Ben) grows up
