You too huh?

Hal, there's a whole section of the forum dedicated to rewriting the prequels.  Take it over there.

I was 5 and had already worn out my Jedi tape.  We had to buy a new one.

I wore out Empire a year or two later.

this is not meant for people to tell their own story line or script for the pt but more of how would you have gotten the ball rolling on production and who would you hire  etc..etc

I'd hire Richard Donner as a director. He's shown he can deal with young actors (Goonies) and special effects (Superman). I'd start the script ASAP and be prepared to put lots of work into it and drafts of it. I'd hire Lawrence Kasdan to co-write it. To re-ignite Star Wars fever, I'd plan a big re-release of the OT... but I'd make these editions SPECIAL by re-inserting deleted scenes.

Hmmm...it's 1994 and ME, you say?

Sheesh the mental age of this place is going to hell.....

1994 i was 23 and just about to get my first taste of making movies in London (just look me up on IMDb after you guess my name).

Perfect location and age and ego to demand I direct the prequels my way (old school cos digital was big risk back then) at one of the big London sound stages.

I'd let George do the story and assuming he came up with The Phantom Menace, I'd story edit like crazy and open with an older class Star Destroyer launching a pod down onto Tatooine - it lands and Darth Maul emerges.

(filler goes here)

I'd let George keep the space battle in at the end, and we'd find out that 10 year old Anakin was indeed a natural and competant pilot, being mentored in a two seater Y-wing that is shiny and brand new. It's OB-1 Kenobi in the co-pilot's seat. OB-1 is a clone of Ben Kenobi whom Anakin will not meet in person until the next episode which Lucas tells me will be called Attack of the Clones.
