ATOC was the highlight of all the SW Films, and the story felt more like movie than a cult gathering. I mean just the Idea of Obi investigating Kamino, and finding clones, and acting like everything is cool, is something everyone could understand, and HELL it was very interesting. It would have worked even under another movie title.
Cant say the same for TPM. Where YES it was the intro, but what a sorry intro it was. It sucked. Eventhough it focues on Anakin, does'nt mean we have to be forced watching elongated unecessary scenes with this toddler. It's quite annoying. For instance, to show that he was gifted, they did'nt HAVE to show us a 20 minute race. Plus the severity of him winning the race, was too under emphisized. And they could have taken a MORE dramatic route, than a RACE scene, to free him from his owner.
Plus, I felt instead of introducing anakin ALL movie long, they should have taken more time for The Jedi's. But they "Just Are". Im more interested in Jedi Origins, than just ONE of the many Jedi's, as a toddler no less.
My rant was just MY, preffered expecatation of TPM, but lets face it, TPM could have been done MANY different and better way's, to the show the beggining of SW...but Lucas chose to go the Kiddie route. And wanted little kids to imagine they were young Vader. That's all. There are scenes in TPM, they gave me the same feeling I got when I saw Harry Potter, and it just does'nt make you feel like an adult, nor are you viewing something designed for the adult mind. The End.
ESB, is a great movie period. Finally the Cornieness of ANH, is brought with some depth. And intrigue. One of the Best endings ever.
AND I can't really put EP3 in that spot, because I have a feeling it we be better than AOTC. Anakin will be in Vader Costume, Lance Windu will Die, Anakin and Vader will Fight like never before, and James Earl jones, will be back. IF Lucas messes this one up...then he's be a fool. But is'nt Speilberg doing it?
Also Yoda, gave the best fight ever. But I think Lance had the Best Battle scenes Over all. He jumped like 50 feet in the air, than fell about 200 feet, and landeed on his feet. And killed Jango.

''People don't get that at the end of the day, it's a film for kids, but it does transverse that.'' - Rick McCallum
I understand that as well, especially for ANH.
And those silly ewoks in ROTJ.
But they lost (I think) that quality that appeals to all viewers with TPM.
And I thought out of the whole lot of SW films, TPM was the only one that came out Flat in this way. And other people hate it because it just did'nt live up to the years of hype. I just think It was "poorly" done within the means of SW movies. AND I think as a Stand slone film it was even worst. 2 negatives, (added together to you math wise guys) dont make a positve.
It stunk as just any old film, and was the Worst SW epsiode so far. I dont doubt that after all 6 have come and gone that TPM will be considered the worst part, by a mojority of fans, for years to come.
