Lucas is definitely lacking in the directing area--ESB and ROTJ definitely show what other directors can do with SW. I am of course, a big SW fan, and I'm the type of fan that can see the flaws, but I still accept it all as valid entries in the saga, and it doesn't diminish the entertainment value for me. I am very much looking forward to Episode III, as Lucas has said that it will be darker and not appeal to some people, which basically means it will appeal more to people than TPM or AOTC, as Lucas is sort of out of touch with how people perceive the movies. But I digress. Anyway, I am pleased to see that some people can actually make valid arguments criticizing the prequels, rather than just hopping on the SW-hating bandwagon, (which, no, I'm not saying that's what every critic of the new movies does, but in my experience it seems that way a lot). Kudos to you, Karpo, and kudos again. May the Force be with you.

I hope you were being sarcastic. Karpo's claiming his own opinions about the prequels are solid facts of the universe, which he does to a lot of things as well. However, I for one tend to lean on the side that despite my own opinions about Karpo's criticism, I and II were definitely NOT the best movies ever made. A New Hope is as of now still my most favorite.

Nah man, the best Star Wars movie ever made was The Ewok Adventure.
