I'm about half-way through my first draft of Episode III. I'm pretty much writing the script for EPIII as I go, because it seems to be very dialogue-heavy (which is a bit of a worry, perhaps). My other concern is that EPIII still looks to be twice as long as the other two episodes...oh well, we'll see how I go.

I've given my previous two episodes a little thought since then. I'm thinking of making Palpatine 'President' instead of 'Supreme Chancellor' in view of what I found in the novelisation of Star Wars. On the other hand, it doesn't sound as good as Chancellor (and it doesn't have all those cool Hitler connotations either).

Another change I'm considering is to the name of Darth Maul's Jedi moniker. I found in wikipedia that Darth Maul's original name was 'Khameir Sarin', but it appears that this was something made up by Supershadow. Given my absolute hatred for all things Supershadow, I would prefer my prequel trilogy to have no connection with him whatsoever.

But thanks for the feedback fellaz. You guys have been by far the most receptive of my ideas!

I guess one positive thing that could come out of these projects is that if George Lucas does die sometime soon (although perhaps, unlikely), I'll be able to sit on them for another 50 years, then submit them as properly formatted scripts/screenplays in a bid to have them remade...

Although perhaps Hollywood is not as much of a fan of story continuity and authenticity as I am...

Stuff came up and I finally got the chance to read it all. Good stuff. I like how you didn't need to make up "new" things for the Star Wars universe. However, I think having so many lines that are close to being the same as lines in the OT is a mistake. A few are okay though. I especially liked the connections to EU things, and that they were presented so that you didn't have to know about them to realize what was going on. Hmmm... the stormtroopers are already present, and are technically the "good" guys. I like that. Just one other thing, the plnaets are a bit more spaced out aren't they?

Why is Boba Fett in ep. I?
I think the first epsiode needs a grander entrance such as the begining of ep.III. A huge space battle reminicent of the thousand ships in the Trojan War coming to save the Queen. I do, however, love the Obi-Anakin sparring and the way Obi finds Anakin.
The whole Jedi actually being maul thing, was great! A Luke I am your father moment, BUT it shoulda been someone of greater importance like Mace Windu.
Your ep.I was a little confusing with the whole grevious mandalorian things. There needs to be one bad guy. May not be clearly defined but all stories need that. Besides that, nothing really else I didn't like.
Boba NEEDS to be cut. He is (and I know this is hard to say) insignificant. His death is an accident! Don't turn him into a character worthy of adding extra story to the movie, instead focus on Anakin and Obi.
WHERE'S QUI-GON? thats all.....
