I see all these new faces around here wondering if there will be the "Bring my shuttle" line and whatnot (thanks Cracked.com) and it dawned on me... I have read over 26,000 posts on this one thread alone for almost 4 1/2 years. Not to mention the couple of years before that for ANH:R. I wasn't here since the inception but damn it's been a long ride hasn't it? There is absolutely nothing Star Wars related that I've been anticipating for years except these edits. That's a strange feeling to NOT anticipate something Star Wars. I have my own edit that's been sitting on the shelf for over a year because I just cannot find the time to get back into it. A fan-edit, a true collaboration helmed by Ady (most work too), is the only source of SW that I care about anymore. That's kind of sad in a way.

My only fear is... what if Ady feels the need to stop before Jedi is completed? Then what? I honestly have no interest in Ady's edit on the prequels. There is no way he can make those even somewhat interesting to me. When he's done with Jedi, I'd like to see a collaborative effort to reboot the prequels. It's a shame nobody I trust with the idea has taken up the mantle. This is where I think the next logical step should be taken. Forget the idea of polishing a turd of the existing prequels. Ady I think honestly you have enough talented people (I include myself) that we all could get together and do a new prequel. We could do it with today's technology in the retro style, without all the fancy schmancy crap that litters the new films. I know you must have thought about it. I would do it myself if I had the same following as you. People are behind you because of your dedication to making the OT what it NEEDS to be. Well, you would have the same dedication but intensified ten-fold if you were to helm a project such as that. I alone have an extensive amount of knowledge and material to loan and would give an enormous amount of my personal time to such an undertaking. 

I dunno, just chew on that for a while. There are literally way too many people to count that would jump on board. We're all a little crazy when it comes to the OT. That's why we're all here right? We're the only ones who understand each other.
