So what do you think? I’m pretty sure that Lucas never considered this angle, but it’s fun to think about.
You probably don’t recognize me because of the red arm.

Just watch ROTR if you want to see it play out.
Oh? Has this been the plan? Iiinteresting 😃

Sorry for the spoiler.
Meh.
If I’m going to reinterpret the prequels to make them “way more watchable”, I’ll just run with the idea that they’re in-universe schlockumentaries made by some Uwe Boll-esque hack (let’s call him Uwe Uwe Bollinks) who never read an actual history text in his life.

Haha, I think of the PT as “Canonical legend”.
Meaning that it is “canon” in the sens that the later movies can refer to events happening during the PT, but if there are some continuity problems, then, well, it’s because the events told are too old and blurry in the past now, and the director of the movies could not possibly get everything right. A bit like anachronisms that can be found in peplums.
I approve of all these techniques for coping with the grief of the PT and for relieving certain psychic dissonances that the PT might inflict, but I cannot agree that any of them actually make the PT watchable.
