The prequels are a good versus evil story, where evil wins through deception. In some ways it was a deconstruction of the original, but ultimately the Jedi were still fighting for right, and the seperatists were bad guys.

I respectfully disagree. I'll grant that, as things presently stand, the separatists come across as bad guys. But the Republic & the Jedi come across, IMO, as corrupt and ineffective at best, despotic and morally compromised at worst. That's one of the big problems I have with the PT: there's no one to root for! Every single character is in some way repugnant and unsupportable.

Well, therein lies the problem I was concerned about. Will the prequel redux fix the problem of us having no-one to root for, or just make it worse by even further blurring the line between good and bad? Will making Count Dooku a sympathetic idealist, Grievous a humanitarian, and all this other stuff bring us any closer to the solid black and white divide between good and evil from the original trilogy, or move us even further away from it?
