The idea of this thread is to go beyond spot patching (though some edits have made improvements with minor changes).

Then why is everyone talking about Grievous who is basically a caricature of ridiculousness when it comes to wielding lightsabers. And Dooku, who was the most cardboard villain maybe in the history of cinema. Plus his name is Dooku, why on earth would you keep that? The Gungans, I thought were a CGI mess. The Trade Federation, I don't even understand what it was, something to do with trade I guess. Beyond that it was very confusing, being that it had an Army and a place in the Senate. Why keep that when the only thing about the Trade Federation that was explained, just didn't make sense. This thread is very long, I've tried to read as much as I could. What radical ideas have been introduced so far? Maybe I missed them, it's a long thread.
