I've already started on episode III.
People seem to like episode II. As I work on III, it's almost like I can predict any mistakes that can happen even before I start animating the scene. I'm also less afraid of trying difficult scenes because I know all kinds of shortcuts to fool the viewer into thinking it took longer to render than it did.
The only obstacle I'm encountering is sequel syndrome, where the movie makers have to find a way to make this movie even better than the one before It. This is a huuuuuge mistake when it comes to sequels. Once you make a sequel that's super great (Empire Strikes Back, Wrath of Kahn) Every sequel after that gets compared to that one. Therefore, you need to do what Lord of the Rings did. Keep them all equal or better yet (and sometimes a little riskier) just make each movie it's own animal with it's own life and ideas (Matrix, Blade). I know there's no way I can keep out-doing the previous episodes because sooner or later you'll hit that Star Trek II, Empire Strikes Back, wall. So I'm trying to make Episode II a new animal.
Leechee Waa. The concubine to the Emperor, and her ladies in waiting.
A Claw. Basically a futuristic forklift.
