1994 i was 23 and just about to get my first taste of making movies in London (just look me up on IMDb after you guess my name).
Perfect location and age and ego to demand I direct the prequels my way (old school cos digital was big risk back then) at one of the big London sound stages.
I'd let George do the story and assuming he came up with The Phantom Menace, I'd story edit like crazy and open with an older class Star Destroyer launching a pod down onto Tatooine - it lands and Darth Maul emerges.
(filler goes here)
I'd let George keep the space battle in at the end, and we'd find out that 10 year old Anakin was indeed a natural and competant pilot, being mentored in a two seater Y-wing that is shiny and brand new. It's OB-1 Kenobi in the co-pilot's seat. OB-1 is a clone of Ben Kenobi whom Anakin will not meet in person until the next episode which Lucas tells me will be called Attack of the Clones.
