How the PT should have played out

This is how the PT should have gone:

Episode I - begins with the start of the Clone Wars and develops the relationships of key players Anakin, Obi-Wan, and Padme and ends with a major victory for the Republic

Episode II - Set a few years after Episode I, the Clone Wars draw to a close as The Empire comes into existence. Anakin is torn between his friendship with Obi-Wan and Padme and his distrust of the Jedi Order. Anakin ultimately turns to the Dark Side (mirroring Luke's denial of the Dark Side in Empire Strikes Back) and becomes an agent for The Empire. The movie would end with Anakin becoming Darth Vader (in name but not in appearance) and Padme discovering she is pregnant.

Episode III - Anakin (now Darth Vader and a student of the Dark Side) leads the Jedi purge and realizes he must confront Obi-Wan and Padme (who has secretly given birth to Luke and Leia without Vader's knowledge) who have formed The Rebellion with Bail Organa. Vader inadvertently kills Padme and blames Obi-Wan for him causing her death. Vader and Obi-Wan fight but Vader ultimately ends up defeated and becomes the character seen in the OT.

That would have been interesting.
Now how do you think the sequel trilogy should have played out?

Yes, the following should have been omitted.

1. Child Vader saying whoops every 5 minutes.

2. Jar Jar Binks.

3. Young Boba Fett “kill them daddy” Keep the character mysterious.

4. Anakin with Padme, totally rewrite or don’t focus on these scenes.

5. General Grievious - unnecessary character and why is he always coughing?
