To me, its not about "can Lucas make this one better than I or II".
I'm more concerned about whether or not Episode III helps Eps I and II fit along better with the rest of the episodes.
I'm more worried about how all six episodes are going to flow. I'm hoping it all seems natural and not like 2 seperate sets of trilogies filmed 20 years apart. Episode III is the episode that will make or break all six episodes or at least the first 3 episodes.
I also dug the parallel made between Revenge of the Sith and Return of the Jedi. Makes me wonder what Episode IX would have been called had Lucas decided to film the last 3 episodes.
BTW, I say he completes the last trilogy in CGI style. He should/could use the faces of a young Hamill, Fisher, Ford, etc and do the last three Final Fantasy/Animatrix's Flight of the Osiris-style.) Take advantage of the fact that all the main cast members are still alive to record the voices and all the while, push Lucasfilm into the CGI film foray, setting new standards and such.
SW fans all know and accept that Lucas loves to showcase new film innovations in each of his films, why not try it in this fashion?
To me, it would be better than never finishing the last trilogy at all.
