I will be withholding all enthusiasm. I was 5 when IV came out, and had been a pretty engaged fan throughout my childhood. When the remakes came out, I tolerated some of the plot vehicles/extra scenes used to explain some of the gaps and whatnot. I found the updated sequence at the very end of VI to be an insult, putting Hayden Christensen into the scene instead of the old dude that was Annakin.
The I, II, III where an atrocity though. Jar jar, was not needed in the comic relief, we still had the droids. (one of which was made by Darth Vader, really?) the kid was way too cute. For example, Luke was a troubled teen, moody, feeling trapped in a desert #$%^ hole. Why was the kid so damned cute? They killed of Qui-Gon(?) and Darth Maul (the two only interesting new characters). They put CGI italian-american accented badguys, CGI Jabba, etc. Kid's mom gets killed, all of a sudden, he is a vicious murderer swearing loyalty to the emperor?
Well, anyways, I feel I have rambled a bit here. Now that GL is not at the helm entirely, maybe they can salvage the series. I know they are not catering to me, nor my demographic anyway, so I guess we will wait and see.
