I agree Dushku, Jedi was a little bit sucky in the way it felt it had to describe everything that was about to happen visually and without Mark Hamill, but I loved the way the first two expanded so much on the backstories, especially early in Star Wars, where you get all the back story of Luke applying for the Imperial academy and threading the needle in his skyhopper, and Leia's backstory on Alderaan, Brian Daley was a genius.

I think one of the reasons why ROTJ didn't work so well is because it was so visual and so many story threads, which is why i don't think the prequals would translate well either, and we colud well do without extended scenes of the Anakin Padme courtship. peeyoosa!
