I disagree. Otherwise, we really don't need new Jedi, new ideas, different ways to fight, that many new characters, ....... eventually leading to a forced decrease in creativity. The prequal trilogy is the same as the classic to me in the respect that, while they will all each stay true to the "Star Wars" feel, you need new things, new characters. I mean, if Mace Windu really isn't needed, what about Mon Mothma or most of the bounty hunters on the bridge of the Avenger? (each new creations to their particular movie, ESB and ROTJ respectivally)
