i won't even get into the quality of lucas' writing for the new episodes.

That's the crux of the issue.

If the guy could write and/or direct, the abundance of or lack of SFX wouldn't matter either way. The movies don't suck because of the CG effects, they suck in spite of them.

Case in point: arguably the best SW movie is Empire Strikes Back... Irvin Kershner directed it and Leigh Brackett wrote it. Lucas was simply overseeing the whole thing.
