Then he got cocky, and decided to try to "improve" his old films. This turned out to be disaster for us fans. The whole aspect of hard earnest work was ruined by adding computerized BS all over them. Bad, bad, bad, bad move. Bad bad bad bad!!!
Episode I was actually pretty good, IMHO. Not as good as the OT obviously, but it wasn't as horrid as many make it out to be.
Episode II went downhill. I didn't really like it much. It is the least of the Star Wars films yet far.
2004 DVD Special Total BS Edition: To this I say, WTF?!?!?!?!???! Horrid changes to even further SCREW the original films, ala '97 SE. Worse, worse, worse, worse, worse!!!! Bad bad bad bad!!!!!
Episode III: Let me just say this... I hope for Star Wars to end on a good note. I think I won't be let down in that respect, at least not by Revenge of the Sith.
Any further BS afterward (Such as TV shows, TV movies, channels, misc. other crap): Probably won't be good. At all.
So yes... he *was* excellent, but then he... lost it.
