Tag Archives: Fixing the Prequels: RotS
So here’s a new wrinkle on things….
On a discussion board at TheForce.net, there’s a thread devoted to positive articles about the Star Wars Prequel Trilogy. And wouldn’t you know it! My “Fixing the Prequels” posts get a mention! And then it gets a little strange. Seems that … Continue reading
Fixing the Prequels: Finale
The Fixing the Prequels series was never, as I’ve noted many times throughout, a project for me to complain about the much-hated films. My goal was always to acknowledge the Prequel Trilogy’s very real problems by suggesting ways they could … Continue reading
Fixing the Prequels: Revenge of the Sith (part eleven)
Previously: ten nine eight seven six five four three two one And now we come to it: the final scenes of Revenge of the Sith. Most of what I would change here would be to touch up the emotional undercurrent … Continue reading
Fixing the Prequels: Revenge of the Sith (part ten)
Previously: nine eight seven six five four three two one So! When last we left off, Anakin had finally stopped wandering around the pitcher of Palpatine’s Kool-Aid and just picked it up and drained it in one swallow. What’s left … Continue reading
Fixing the Prequels: Revenge of the Sith (part nine)
previously: eight seven six five four three two one OK, this is long…quite long. But necessary, because this is when we finally get to the meat of the whole thing. At the end of last entry, Mace Windu had placed … Continue reading

Fixing the Prequels: Revenge of the Sith (part seven)
previously: six five four three two one Diving right back in with both lightsaber blades ignited…or something like that. Anyway, when last we left, Palpatine had engineered Anakin Skywalker’s elevation to the Jedi Council, but the Council, angered at Palpatine’s … Continue reading
Fixing the Prequels: Revenge of the Sith (part six)
previously: five four three two one OK, time to dive straight back in. Huzzah!!! When last we left off, the various forces in Anakin Skywalker’s life were starting to use him as a pawn in their own various games. This … Continue reading

Fixing the Prequels: Revenge of the Sith (part five)
one two three four Again, it’s been a while since we did this, and I’ve been lax for mainly the same reasons: work on other projects, and the continued calcification of the view that the Prequel Trilogy is utter garbage. … Continue reading
Fixing the Prequels: Revenge of the Sith (part four)
one two three Aaaaand again, it’s been ridiculously long for an installment of this series, for which, again, my apologies. But this time the reason is different, aside from the fact that time, as always,, continues to occasionally get away … Continue reading
