Half the things I totally agreed with.
The other half I felt were nitpicky, but still, deep down, couldn't help but agree with also.
I don't even like admitting that.

OK, It’s a little late to do this but this thread is just funny/pathetic…..
Reason #1
The Title
I don't think it ever occurred to anyone that the title of Episode II wouldn't be The Clone War. That seemed like an obvious title and a good one. Lucas then announced that the title would be Attack of the Clones to pay homage to the days of the 1950's movie serial. What he's forgetting is that those serials were terrible! Attack of the Clones, while it will grow on you just as any bad thing will, is a horrible title! Why would you want to pay homage to crap? It's especially bad when you realize that the clones in question are fighting for the good side. That's even less scary and stupider sounding. The title is essentially Attack of the Good Guys.
Answer: star wars episode two: THE CLONE WAR, do you have any idea of how many fanfics began with the same stupid name like that?!!!
OK, next, I don’t mean to insult anybody but: why do you think parents around the world name their sons after them or after some relative? They are paying and homage, junior!! That’s why. If you don’t like it, stick with SW episode two.
All 3 titles are from an evil point of view, check the movie again and you’ll see that all the good guys didn’t want to use the clones because it will be the end of democracy. Why was the empire strikes back named after every crappy return or a villain in any crappy comic book or t.v. show?

Reason #2
"I shouldn't have come back."
The movie begins with an assassination attempt on the life of Senator Amidala. When several of her staff lie dead she says: "I shouldn't have come back." Isn't she a senator? How could she possibly avoid coming back? In what way has she been representing her planet for the past ten years that hasn't involved being in the Senate Chamber with all the other senators?
She was not away for ten year!!, read some of the “approved by Lucas” novels and you’ll see that she has been the target of a lot of assassination attempts

Reason #3
Dissing Yoda
When Yoda sees Amidala he says: "Seeing you alive brings warm feeling to my heart." Amidala completely blows by him and starts yammering on about whatever is on her mind. There is so much dialogue like this in the movie. Someone will say something almost human and another person will respond (or not respond) in a completely inhuman way. Yoda can't even score a simple "thank you" from Amidala after his kind words. It's enough to make one wonder if Lucas has ever had a conversation with another living being.
See my answer to your second reason: she leaved the senate a year ago because of an attempt to her life, she comes back and boom, another one!, I’ll be pretty pissed too

Reason #4
Spice Miners
"Our intelligence points to disgruntled spice miners, on the moons of Naboo." When the Queen's life is threatened their intelligence points to "disgruntled spice minters on the moons of Naboo." Great. This is just another reason to mention "spice miners" and is never mentioned again. A perfect example of George Lucas going down the Star Wars checklist on his way to making a poor film. "Gundarks?" Check. "Spice Miners?" Check. "Poodoo?" Check.
“our intelligence points to disgruntled Al Qaeda members some place in irak” mmmh sound like the same stupid check list of the past four years don’t you think?
Reason #5
Jimmy Smits
I don't mind Jimmy Smits. He seems like a nice enough guy. There is just something so utterly distracting about him in this movie that I can't stand it. Thankfully he's only in a few tiny scenes or I wouldn't have retained a damn thing about this movie. Every scene he is in I am forced to just stare slack-jawed at his magnificence/out-of-placedness. It may be narrow minded but I am just seeing Bobby Simone from NYPD Blue. Okay so I've never actually seen an episode of NYPD Blue but I've seen the commercials.
Answer: hahahahahaha….OK next reason
Reason #6
Gundarks
They just had to do it. In an elevator ride Anakin pointlessly brings up the time that he saved Obi-Wan after he fell into a "nest of Gundarks". They laugh about it... and it's really dumb. I will eat my hat if Nerf Herders are not mentioned in the next movie.
Please put some mustard on it because you are in for an indigestion

Reason #7
The Meeting
"Annie? My goodness you've grown." "And you've grown. More beautiful." This sets it in motion. The groans filled the cinema as this scene just refused to die. You would think that the obvious things (i.e. Palpatine's evil, Amidala and Anakin's romance, Anakin becomes Vader) that everyone knows is going to happen would have a little more in the subtlety department. I am reasonably certain that there will be an agonizingly long baby-naming sequence in the next movie where they agree on "Luke" if it's a boy and "Leia" if it's a girl. They will probably even stumble through some of the original names that Lucas had for Luke like "Dirk Starkiller". It doesn't matter how bad an idea you think of for one of these movies, Lucas will come along and make your idea look good by comparison.
It’s called normal human chit chat, happens all the time with couples and parents oh yeah great “300 I.Q and English dictionary carrier” one

He didnt say that, this is a legit thread, just ignore the hordes of over serious SW fan boys bashing it.

You know, all posts aside, I found some of the material funny (If and only if the way it was presented to me), some of it glaringly true, and some of it nitpicking.... but also true. Now, I'm a big fan still. And nothing will really change that, ever. And I don't think the purpose of this is to change that for any of us, but to gvie us another viewpoint on the movies.
I had a lot of the same complaints while watching the movies, to be honest. ESbwas perhaps my favorite movie, but eh prequels I found ot be lacking when held up to that old relic. Certainly, the overuse of CGI was ridiculous. Watching AOTC for the second time made it obvious as a pink elephant in an elevator about just what was real and what wasn't real. I found on a whole, acting by anyone who didn't have an English accent in AOTC to be just horrible. The relationship was pretty piss poor; Anakin was an ass, which is probably why I don't like him now; too many cameos and too much pizzazz, not enough explanation; etc. etc. I could go on all day, myself.
And yet I still love the flicks. Moreso the old ones, but still... love em. No matter what anyone says they contain a magic that no other film has. The end.

i'm starting to think that fans have a big problem not with the prequels but with CGI.
you say that it's pretty obvious what's cgi and what's not, well, you know, i'm a big fan too and i find it more obvious to see the special efects on the original trilogy.
everybody's saying that the prequels are full of cgi but nobody remembers that the original WAS filled with special effects or as my little borther calls them " the cgi of the old timers"
