Well, its only really the time between Episodes I and II that is really long. In the original trilogy, there are three years in between IV and V, and one year in between V and VI, so the three years in between II and III isn't very extraordinary... Its the 10 years in ebwteen I and II that throws it off...
What Lucas should have done was start the trilogy with Episode II. Everything in Episode I was hardly necessary to understand the saga as a whole. We didn't have to see where Han met Chewie in the original trilogy, we don't need to see where Obi-Wan met Anakin or where Anakin met Padmé, etc. There would have to be more explanation of Anakin in the opening scroll, and then more explanation of the Separatists within the movie, but it would have worked better with the trilogy overall...
Then Episode III should have been split in two. One focusing more on Anakin's corruption; the next on him actually turning into Darth Vader.
It would have been better.
