She likely felt that way because she simply saw the PT, and felt the OT was to slow compared to the PT.

Which is a failure on Lucas' part for not being a good enough filmmaker to match the pace and style of his originals. If he had made the prequels in a retro kind of way, mimicking his old style, I'm sure he would have been praised for it and everyone would have said how clever it was of him to make a seventies style film in the nineties.

I don't think his intention was ever to "fit" the PT-effects wise with the OT. And he's not out to impress people. The entire reason he pushed the effects so much on the PT is because he was so happy that he could make it how his original vision saw it, which he never got a chance to do with th OT, where he had to make constant sacrifices. He talks in interviews of how happy he is with the PT, but how disappointed he initially was with the OT. I'm actually proud that he got full control to do whatever he wanted, and didn't listen to any of his co-workers, or any fanboys when making his decisions.

Wel a lot of thing could have been done. Why didn't greedo shot in the original version(he could have easily filmed that), why is jabba now there when he was fully introduced by greeedo. Answer me those question well you can't cuz so many of the changes of the OOT are retarded. Lucas couldh ave made the PT more like the OT if he wouldn't have gone crazy with CGI and he should have used more minatures. Look at Titanic and the lord of the rings and the chronicles of narnia (out friday) used a mix of minatures and CGI and it looks wonderful. Now i have no problem w/ CGI or the archival Star Wars editions i just find his changes riducules because they fucking changes the characters!!!!!
