You dare speak of Plot in the Age of the Star Wars Prequel?! How sad you are to think that movies are dictated by the characters in them, their limitations and their lives, when movies are really dictated by what cool special effects can be done. Isn't that what it's all about. George Lucas thinks so, so why shouldn't Warner Brothers?
