PT reboot?

Now that Disney owns Star Wars and bringing it back to form, would you be opposed to them trying to fix the Prequels? Completely redoing them to fix everything that was off/weird/continuity/badly acted/etc.

I want to say the outline of the PT works, but the directing was all over the place and the acting suffered because of it. The CGI hasn't aged well and the digital sets were terrible. Some re-working of the story could make everything mesh together a lot better.

Thoughts?

No. I'm not a fan but they are what they are and they have people who do enjoy them. I'd rather they create their own stories instead.

No and they are fine, so saying "to fix" implies that something is wrong factually when it's all opinion. I thought the movies were fine, sorry that some couldn't follow along with what was going on.

Yes, the prequels are factually wrong and should be fixed ASAP.

They are in no position to fix anything. They should seriously start thinking about fixing their own story.

technically it would not be a reboot, but a remake.

Yup. And I think they'r gonna let it be and continue with the other five movies they have planned. I think they have their work cut out.

And if they ever do, they'd probably wait until after Lucas has passed away, out of respect.

I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if Disney, in 20 or so years, tried to completely remake the OT.

How does Leia remembering her real mother in ROTJ but Padme dying right after she's born in ROTS not equate to being factually wrong?

Anakin building Threepio is one of the stupidest plot points that adds nothing except for a way to introduce the droid.

The acting alone is grounds to reshoot the movies. It's not that I "couldn't follow along" it's that the movies were poorly made.

They will never do that. The OT is the classic that still works to this day. The backlash would be too great.

Tomato potato.

TFA's story was right as rain for me. Could have used a few more scenes in between others to flesh it out some more, but the overall story was still great.

1. The Force? But fine sure, let's go with that one, doesn't make all the movies wrong.

2. So?

3. Again opinion.

They are enjoyable, all have received mixed reviews and made bank. Just the hate is the loudest.

Absolutely not opinion. The acting is factually terrible. Even some of the actors note that their work in the PT was subpar. It doesn't fall on them, it falls on Lucas.

Lets distroy them and make them again

No. The prequels belong to Lucas and I don't know why people don't respect that...

Cause why should they?

tbh, as long as GL is among the living, i think it would be in poor taste to shitcan the PT. besides there's plenty of possibilities for great SW movies for the next 10-20 years without having to dwell on the same saga/time/family. i do hope to see it happen within my own lifetime though.

Nope.

I think it would be a good idea at some point. Maybe not for 10+ years, but it would be nice if the prequel trilogy was relatively watchable outside of Revenge of the Sith. Like I said in another thread, there's a great story to be told there, they just need to get the it in the hands of a competent and passionate filmmaker this time.
