I had a thought the other day that you could replace Anakin with Rick Olie and it would be a much more compelling film. A younger Rick Ollie, the only pilot left in Theed, has to help the Queen leave Naboo, but during so he makes a mistake that damages the ships hyperdrive, they land on Tattooine and out of desperation they enter the Podrace using Wattos podracer. His performance in the Podrace leads quigon to think that he has force powers and takes him infront of the Jedi council. In the third act, Rick joins the pilots taking on the droid control ship and using the techniques learnt in the podrace he flies into the heart of the ship and blows it up.
