"A New Sith, or Revenge of the Hope"

Keith Martin took the time to consider the films and write-up this reconsideration of Star Wars (Episode IV) in light of what we learn in the prequels. It's quite amusing and makes a few salient points.

After revisiting the original trilogy over the past few weeks it is pretty entertaining to look at it that way. But I wonder if it's a sign of Lucas' storytelling genius or a sign of plot holes all over the place. And admittedly I've never seen prequel #3 and don't have plans on doing so anytime soon, so my view is pretty well skewed.
