Illuminating some of his original ideas demonstrate that he's always had some pretty wild ideas and seems to underline my reasoning that the prequel trilogy did not feature enough peer edits or rewrites before seeing the screen.
You're not honestly going to defend Jar-Jar and the entirety of AOTC, are you?
Can you clarify this statement? I was saying that Lucas should have hired more "script polishers" not that he did and it took them 20 or so years to produce a somewhat coherent work.
Also, FTR, I'm not arguing that the prequels weren't massive commercial hits. However, that does not mean that my arguments are invalid. I do not really care for this line of reasoning, as it would mean that any Michael Bay extravaganza would be immune to any legitimate criticism.
It's also worth pointing out that despite it's immense success at the box office, I seem to recall that you possessed a fair amount of disdain for The Avengers

Look, Dude, the bottom line is this: Adults don't like the prequels, but kids do.
How many six year olds have told you that
The Phantom Menace sucks?
