Episode 1, Wat are Your Thoughts?

episode 1, your thoughts

i think this is the best prequel and pretty close to episode 6, so do both my brothers who are literally among the biggest nerds ever, one of them has the christmas special and the other has read all the comics and books, and built most the models for star wars.
what do you think

Everyone is different. I like EP III the best, cause thats just me. Ep I was was ok, but didn't quite satisfy my expectations.

Also, your mentioning the prequals, but you Poll is showing all Episodes

thats because i wanna know where it ranks with everybody else

Fifth I think. I thought it was pretty lousy, until ROTS came out. Suddenly AOTC seemed so obsolete to me that AOTC dropped to the bottom of them all. ROTS actually made TPM better to me!

'Close to Episode VI' is an insult around where I come from.

Meaning? TPM is way better or way worse?

i caught it on tv about two months ago and its worse than i remembered
id rather watch Caravan of Courage
or Howard The Duck
its truly dire

good old Ben Burtt sums up TPM in the BEGGINING documentary
he looks mega depressed

I laughed.
Har har.
The movie.
It smells like Jar Jar.

Well...Ep 1 wasn't very good. My two cents.

In my humble opinion I have liked all six films. The Empire Strikes Back is the best one of the original trilogy. As for the prequels chronicling young Anakin to Evil Sith lord Darth Vader, I liked them.As for The Phantom Menace it was good, but I wanted more from Darth Maul.

Its good but not the best

It is very nice fairy tale, I even didn`t mind Jar-Jar that much, though he was overused.

I hated Binks, I'm glad he was only in the last moments in ROTS.

FAIRY TALE?

Thats just it though
we didnt want a fairy tale
we wanted thousands of jedis taking on mandalorian warriors in battle etc etc etc

That would be epic...Jedi's charging on one side deflecting shots...some getting hit...Mandalorians digging themselves in, not giving an inch to the Jedi.

It was ok and imo the best movie for a little kid(like 5 or 6) to get into star wars. It didn't have that darker feel that the other movies have and little kids my actually like Jar-Jar. The best scenes were obviously the podrace and the "duel of fates"

Ep 2 didn't really have a dark feeling either...except for the Tusken part...Ep 3-6 were all SW darkish feeling.

But episode 2 would be might be more confusing as to who the "good guys" are for the little kids to figure out. (other than the jedi) Plus you have to to start at the begining of the trilogies. You right though that there isn't a dark feeling in it. And I don't think episode 4 had anything dark by our terms other than Vader himself. I also think this movie has more of an innocent feeling to it than any other star wars movie.
