Well, I've been a fan of Chefelf's online antics for a few years now, and, as I had five minutes of free time for a change, I thought I'd start a little screen name here. Hello all.
Let me get right to it.
I'd like to sum up the Star Wars prequels with a quote from Mystery Science Theater 3000.
"Apparently the plot is none of our business."
Also, I had never heard of the Star Wars cartoons, since I don't watch television; this explains Grievous. My first thought when seeing Grievous was, "Man, he should cut back to two packs a day." And if he had lungs, wouldn't he die when he flew around in space for a moment? Perhaps he used the Force?
I also enjoyed Anakin's Benedict Arnold impression. With these new paper-thin characters, a complex situation like "switching from good to evil" requires no plot or dialogue, and can be done in minutes or even seconds! Wizard...
I made my own Senator Organa pic; I'll post it soon enough.

i found that on the lego website years ago. it was taken off after the wept. 11 attacks, i suppose to refrain from any perceived rudeness to arab people (though I never met an arab person that wore a turban).
i think his name was The Great Rendini. I haven't been to their site in a while, so it may be back.

That's a stupid reason to take the pic off. Maybe we should ban people from wearing turbans too, so no one gets offended.
I thought it was a mushroom from Mario.

And he is extremely fragile - completely unable to withstand having sideways-walking goombas shoulder him out of the way... cursed two-dimensional plumber... where is the Mushroom Kingdom Army - or did that go the same way of the Army of the Republic pre-TPM... with the net result that when the greedy trade federation (Bowser) blockaded Naboo (kidnapped the Princess) the Supreme Chancellor (Mushroom King) sent two Jedi (the Mario Brothers) to resolve the dispute (rescue the princess by cutting a bridge with a magic axe)... how's that for allegory.

So the plot was taken from Mario Bros and portrayed at the pace (and acting ability) of Sonic the hedgehog.
