RE: Can the story of the prequels be fit into only three films?

It seems to me that Vader in Ep3 shouldn't have looked exactly like Vader in Ep5.  Shouldn't Vader have had something akin to a crude Mark I outfit, then by the time he appears in Ep4 20 years later, there would be some advances in the suit to improve quality of life.  He would then be wearing a Mark III type of suit. 

It seemed more like they did this for the 'Look, it's Vader!' effect.

In fact, Ep3 felt a bit like 'The gang's back together' with the marketing, but I digress....

yes! the story of the prequals CAN be fit into 3 films.  It goes as:

Ep I- parts 1 & 2

Ep II - parts 1 & 2

Ep III parts 1 & 2

ie: HP:deathly hallows, and the upcoming hobbit 2 parter.  Of course it has to be done with a writer/'director who can pour his heart and soul into it and actually gives a damn about quality, story, and performance and not just $$$$ from merchandise. There was plenty of time to carve out a storyline for something of this size between 1983 and 1997(or whenever shooting for EP1 started).  Each part could be 2hr30min long.  I think fans would love it, I know I would. I think the time alotted would be enough for tons of entertaining, useful, creative ideas other than the tripe we actually got.
