I recently came across a series of videos discussing, What if the Star Wars Prequels were good? The presenter talks about how, with a number of key changes, the Prequels could actually be a lot better than they actually were.
What if Episode I was (sic) good?
What if Episode II were good?
What if Episode III were good?
I personally find these ideas to be pretty interesting, and I think that it would have improved the Prequels significantly. A lot of what this guy talks about is actually how I personally imagined the prequel events to be before Lucas made them, especially with the character of Anakin Skywalker and his relationship with Obi-Wan Kenobi.
What's Rey's vocal accent?
I know its a bit late, but RIP Jason Wingreen. He passed away on Christmas 2015.

What's the chance of Mark Hamill being nominated & winning the Best Supporting Actor Award for 2016? Be it the Oscar, Golden Globes, Emmy, BAFTA, Cannes. I say this cos Marlon Brando took home the Oscar for Best Actor in Leading Role in The Godfather. His screen time was short. But we all remembered all those sliced lemon & tissue paper they shoved into his cheeks.
There's an interview that's doing the rounds atm where Ahmed Best talks about how he's often been hurt by a lot of the hatred that he's copped because of Jar Jar Binks. I get that a lot of people hate Jar Jar, but to hate Best because of it?!? That seems silly. It's not Best's fault that George Lucas wrote Jar Jar to be such a freakin' uselessly lame character in Episode I. And to be fair, Jar Jar was a better character in Episodes II and III, and even in the Clone Wars series as they realised that Jar Jar should just stop wasting screen time and actually contribute to the story.
It's sad to think that some fans have taken it so personally and decided to lash out against Best. He was only giving the performance that Lucas wanted from him. That's an actor's job. And Best makes a fair point in that he was one of the pioneers of motion tracked acting. But honestly, a lot of Transformers fans rightfully hate G1 Wheelie, but we don't hate Frank Welker because of it! Actors don't write scripts or direct films!

T'was nice to see Obi Wan slowly regain some old Jedi skills (gotta love light saber deflections).
The series so far has been entertaining, but flawed. The pace has been an issue for me. I get the feeling this series would have made an excellent (well...better...perhaps), standalone film. Also, the 'gotta keep saving Leia' trick is getting annoying. I was hoping she'd be returned to her foster parents by now and the story go into another direction...but, oh well. It is what it is.
