Christopher Bahn poses some thoughtful answers to the question: Can Star Wars Episode III Be Saved?

I have my doubts. If it wasn’t the final piece of the StarWars hex-ology, I would refuse to see it just based on Episodes I and II. My justification? I will give you five, each of which are enough to justify having George Lucas exiled from this planet:

1. Midichlorians.
2. Midichlorians. No really, Midofuckingchlorians.
3. Hayden Christensen. Seriously.
4. Half-hour of Pod racing. No really, half an hour.
5. Jar-Jar Binks.

Christopher Bahn makes some recommendations for salvaging the last episode of the series, and I agree with him 100%, especially on how to deal with George Lucas,

“…knock him out, encase him in a block of frozen carbonite and put him out of the way somewhere until the movie is out in theaters.”

But will resurrecting Ed Wood from the grave and having him direct the film save it? I dunno. It could already be too late.
