i think this is going to be great. and your right it seems that lucas makes a joke of the jedi order, however if you think about it that could have been his purpose. after all if you read alot of the EU, you find that at the end of the order, the jedi were getting very cocky, and arrogant, yoda says this himself in AOTCs. i think that is the primary reason the order fell s easily to the sith, it makes sense in a way if you think about it, but i can see why people wouldnt like it.

also a true sign of wisdom is when someone can admit that they dont know something, and can accept lessons from someone who may not be as wise as them to teach them. i.e. yoda.
