No! No saber at all! Was it you, Bingowings, that made the case for there being no need for Yoda to be an action hero by comparing his type of Jedi to Shaolin Monks and the other kind of Jedi to Shaolin Knights? I thought that was a perfect comparison that summed up how these prequels ought to have been handled in the first place.

 

I've been lurking here for a long time, but finally made an account....

I agreed 100% on Yoda being saber-less .... not to mention it makes the perfect world scenario of replacing CG yoda with a Puppet that looks like ESB/ROTJ Yoda easier to pull off....

 

and while were on that topic.... radical for me would be replacing a ton of the CG characters with costumes.. Gungans would be 100Xs better if they were in well done rubber suits, if Jabba were to remain I'd love to see one that looks like ROTJ Jabba... maybe an entirely revamped Watto/Sebulba (either puppets or costumes)... etc....

to me the CGI in many cases is way too "fake" looking.... it stands out and doesn't seem to blend with the real actors in far too many situations.  I know this would be incredibly hard to pull off in a fan edit, but I can dream I guess....
