Major Star Wars Geekfight

Darth Justice has a blog post entitled "What Should Have Been", which takes Lucas to task about the prequels and offers up a few edits. Naturally some Lucas fanboys jump in later on and suggest that such heresy is improper, or some such stuff. Personally I think the prequels are a fine example of what happens when something gets so big it feels it's immune to critique. Lucas had the money, the technology and the talent to pull off amazing movies ... but there didn't seem to be any real desire to edit it down to get it right. So much of the prequels would have been far better with just some attention paid to a lot of small, but stupid things.
