Star Wars IS a Saturday morning serial. That was the whole idea. The FANS
turned it into something serious and philosophical. It is a saturday

Too bad to hear this, but ihad a sneaking suspicion that Gendy Tartokovky's great "Clone Wars" animated shorts would set the high standard this movie couldn't live up to.
Truthfully, the best of Star Wars work has been either directed and/or written by someone other than Lucas.

As always, you make good points. I can concede what you say, which is one

exactly because of what you said: Lucas crafted a tale that's more
Even Saturday Morning serials have a palatable plot..your insulting
