If Lucas came out saying that he's going to re-release a special addition of Star Wars Episode III, but the Mace/Sideous fight would be enhanced.. maybe some actual stuntman involved, etc; would you object or prefer it the way it is now?
already was a stuntman with ian mcdiarmid's face digitally graphed on....very poorly. im sure he would be flattered, however, that you would mistake such an old man for being so limber.

That fight was a black hole of suck. Yes, I'd deeply enjoy if they reshot it. McD' and Jackson (to a lesser extent) had no business picking up a lightsaber and dueling so damn slowly.
Yes, for sure, and Ian did at least some of the fighting himself, GL had him do it so he could get some good close-up shots of his face. But the duel sucked, Mace is like as good as Yoda with a blade, as is Palpatine, and they were moving really slow.
I agree Kit "Fisted severely by a dish-gloveless Palpatine" Fisto was the worst offender.
Some of those CGI mask shots REALLY need to be done.
They stood out like an ESB asteroid slug in a small bowl of cereal, and made the audience feel less comfortable than a party full of people who have to witness Luke and Leia getting WAY too drunk and getting off with each other at the annual Jedi picnics....

Re: Should the Mace/Sideous fight be redone?
why should it be redone? because there wasnt as much leaping around and shit? there wasnt as much leaping around between Obi Wan and Vader in ANH, should it also be redone?
It was two masters going at it, pitting their skills at swordsmanship against each other.
