Did you expect Episode I and II to be great at this point?

Dude what aboot Fight with Jango.....The Jedi in the Arena....Yoda......The Imperial March?

Fight with Jango will be improved with the fight with Grievous...the Jedi in the arena will be improved by the Jedi in the temple fighting the clones and Anakin...Yoda's fight with Dooku will be improved by his fight with Sidious...and the imperial march will be heard in thriumph in ep III!

I think the problem with 1 & (and moreso)2, and I love them both, was scripting. The plots and action were well done, but the script and dialogue were dry and wooden, without a lot of the personality of the original trilogy. That said, my hope is that ROTS will be so good that it will "validate" 1&2 in the sense that when you go back and watch them, there will be an element of "ah, I know where this is going"...

EpI trailer I thought looked cool and after the exceptionally long wait,
I didn't want to imagine the let down... Oooooops.
EpII trailer looked way better on its own merits.... And the movie was.
EpIII trailer more so and the saga conclusion prospect makes it the best
of the three for me at this point....
