tjdavis, thanks so much for the clips.

I've watched the first three clips so far, and I'm very impressed by how y'all were able to use the flashback approach to cover the high points of the PT. The AOTC love sequence is particularly nice. At this level, it's actually believable that they could fall in love.

As RoccondilRinon said, your edits show that the dialog of the prequels is the weak link. Watching the clips, I began to realize that the prequels really do work better as silent movies. Just by looking, we get the main jist - with little or no dialog. And for the purposes of the story, the main jist is all we need. In short, the "whats" are powerful and relevant, but the "whys" are weak and unnecessary.

Once again, I'm saddened that this project has been dropped, but I understand. These are such great ideas. I hope they find a home eventually.

Thanks.
