As much as I'd love to be able to do some really radical editing to create something wholly different, my skills are just not up to the task. As such I'm trying to keep my edits confined to what I am capable of doing.

I just don't think it's feasible to cut out Anakin as a child or move some of the major events between films. As much as I would love to do so.

I've written my own prequels which I may eventually illustrate into comic format if I'm so inclined. The basics of my view of the prequels is that the Empire is already in existence in Episode I and Republic loyalists are fighting a losing battle against imperial conquest. The Jedi are mostly gone at this stage. Anakin is a young man, not a child, when he meets brash and daring young Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi. The two become instant friends and Obi-Wan takes on Anakin as his apprentice. The clone wars becomes the final conflict of the reformation from Republic to Empire. and in Episode III The republic falls permanently and the Jedi purge commences. At its very basic form. If anyone is interested in a more detailed description perhaps I'll make a thread for my prequels over in the script writing forum.
