The drama preceeding each prequel film is worthy of its own film in my opinion. We were and probably still are insane, Yes, i think we can lay claim to being the most insane fans in the entire history of anything.

For me, I just innocently began using the internet to go to starwars.com back in 1998, and later got more into it for TPM news. I was a youngster, new to star wars, but in love with it just as much as any oldbie, I'm sure. The clone wars cartoon and the story elements in the battlefront game for ps2 are EXACTLY all I really expected or wanted from the PT. Instead I got Jar jar, Yipee, a ridiculously boring story, and empty pockets after spending all my money on new star wars junk.

Online, let me tell you... it was hell. Those with brains in their heads condemned lucas for creating jar jar, but that was just the beginning. Everybody split into two camps, basher and gusher. No room for middle ground. It was war. I'm glad it's over now for the most part because discussing star wars online was becoming retarded. Nobody listened, just insulted each other until everyone was just pissed, not really enjoying anything.
