Classic Rick McCallum interview.

He didn't use the word "dense", but he conveyed the concept. LOL.
I'm not waiting for or anticipating this show. I mean, if it comes I'll be interested, but all I sense in these interviews is that McCallum is trying to make it seem as though they've done more work than has actually been done. It reminds me of Lucas' changing reasons for why he doesn't release the UOT (expensive, not his versions, original negatives ruined, etc.). Rick seems to be bullshitting through the interview.
If they have actually written the scripts, and those scripts have more digital effects and CGI than the prequels, one can only assume the stories will be on par with, if not inferior to, the prequels. Scary thought.
