He uses way to many special effects and his humor is horrible in both films. Just to give you examples, the two sports commentators during the pod races were ridiculous, and in the second one- they put a fifties diner in the friggin future. I could name a lot more, but this is the kind of stuff I hope is not in the third installment. Please Lucas, redeem yourself and then move on to your Indiana Jones sequel.
If you were a true Starwars fan you would apperiate Episode I and II even if they were bad, after watching them several times i thought they were both fantastic and i can't wait until Episode III.
While I did enjoy Episodes 1 and 2, i agree the OT is just better storytelling, I think the story was just more important to GL back then, NOT that the stories are bad, by any means. I do think that Episode 3 does have the potential to be the closest to ESB, which in my opinion is, and most likely will always be, the best of the six films.
