I hate too many connections between the prequels and the OT. Let's make the universe bigger, not smaller please. Comic relief needed by NEW characters (Jar Jar or some other character completely recast and rewritten).

Makes some sense but what if the PT is completely not connected with the OT?

I mean stylisticaly speaking that could offer a confusion that these movies are like star wars or cheap rip offs that trying to catch the feel of star wars aswell.

See what happens to the EU and more specific to the games. They still have some starwars-y characteristics(lightsabers and white troopers) but they feel so wrong and cheap.

Like blending different styles to one with no connection to the previous ones is like reintroduce something brand new

.See what nolan did with batman. IMO always ;)
