Will you be making Episodes two and three? Would be nice, especially to continue all the work you’ve been doing on Jar Jar and the Neimoidians etc

If my version of Episode I gets decent reception, then I’ll be doing Episodes II and III. I have big plans for III, if I do. For one example, Padme’s funeral will now be to the tune of this musical piece: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UWt_kjS3JVY , which is a lullaby version of “Across the Stars”. I came across it on YouTube and thought it would be a great way to juxtapose Anakin and Padme’s somewhat childish relationship with the weight of her death (I’ve considered cutting her death for continuity reasons, but I like the irony of her death too much. I’ll find a way to work around the continuity of IV).

I’ve always considered II to be the worst of the prequels, but I’ll do my best with it. I’ve actually been playing around with adding Dooku to the end of Episode I, watching in the distance during the funeral scene, as Qui-Gon was supposedly his apprentince. The idea is to give his character a bit more depth, and sort of make the death of Qui-Gon be the final tear in Dooku’s connection with the Jedi. This should help flesh out the reasoning as to why Dooku sort of just shows up out of nowhere in Attack of the Clones. Also, if I do end up editing Episode II, I’ll most likely give Dooku a darksaber, as opposed to a lightsaber.
