That's a damn funny picture.

In a sense, he's already the most prolific vampire in the history of movies, having sucked the life out of a generation of Star Wars fans. [Rimshot.]

I just came to post this article as well.
I love the idea, if only someone less famous did it, they wouldn't have any qualms of making it available for the internet to see.

I believe the first draft of TPM, had Obi-Wan as the main character, basiclly replacing Qui-Gon for the first half of the film. Qui-Gon didn't show up until they arrived at Coruscant. Qui-Gon them went with them back to Naboo. I don't know why he changed it.
At least according to The Secret History of Star Wars book.

I find the Secret History to be an interesting read. I think TPM suffered for not having Obi-Wan as the main character, giving the audience a whole new character only to know that he has to die. It also, in my opinion, paints Obi-Wan in a more negative light for the entire prequel. He resents Anakin and takes him on as a dying request of Qui-Gon. Sounds like the start of a great friendship

Also, it's a little sad how an entire generation of twenty-somethings seems to have learned the ins and outs of proper storytelling by studying why TPM wasn't it.
