You guys can say what you want about the prequels, but I thought Ewan McGregor and Liam Neeson were excellent. Episode 1 also contains easily one of the best fight scenes ever. Although it is cut in with a kid flying through space going, "Wooahhh". I really hate that kid

The fight scene could have been way better. There was not a enough of Darth Maul. He could have been easily the best sith ever if Lucas would have showed how much of a bad____ he was. Seriously only two fight scenes. At least we could have had a "cantina" scene where he goes in and tears the place up. George should have used that double light sabre.

...I totally agree. This is a PRIME example of Lucas being a hack - he probably heard some crappy grade school report from one of his kids on parts of the cell, titled "Mitochondria", and decided to rip THAT off to pad out ep.I - I can't believe Liam Neeson was able to make that explanation on film w/a straight face. If I were him, I would've hoped that scene would have been filmed after most of the movie was in the can, so I could tell Lucas how goddamned stupid that line was and he couldn't fire me.

+1MM For cryin' out loud, I thought I was the only one!

In that moment, Darth Vader went from being the most evil villain (IMO, people) to one step in front of Dr. Evil... Yeah, that's WAY down on the list!

as a huge star wars fan, EP I moved way to slow. EP II was better but Anakin was to whiny to be the "one to bring balance to the force". EP III was the best of the prequels, but Anakin's and Padme's relationship was to unbelievable.

BTW if took the Jedi cousel over 18 freaking years to solve the mystery of the Sith then they got what they deserved. didn't it seem that they were always talking bout solving the mystery? Geez, George made them look like idoits.

Can anyone else picture George Lucas writing the screenplay at his desk with a big smirk on his face going "Ahhh Georgie - where DO you come up with these?!?".

I think he got so wrapped up into keeping everything a secret, that he opted not to test market some of his ideas - namely Jar Jar. I dragged my girlfriend to go see it after talking about it for weeks and then was totally embarrassed. I know that he was put in there for the kids, but the ones who were there weren't laughing either.

+1. It may be the worst line in any movie ever. Seriously, how the hell did that make it on the final screenplay.

I tend to think that many of these, "no shit sherlock", super obvious lines, are put in for the younger audiences.

Like in Spider-man 2:

Mary Jane, "You do love me."
Peter, "I do."
Mary Jane, "Even though you said you didn't."

YES YOU DUMB WH*RE!!!!! That line kills me every time. But maybe they had to leave it in to clarify with the 10 year olds.

i.e.
"From my point of view, the Jedi are evil!" - Anakin

Seriously?... did we need to verbally announce what is obviously already known... and make it cheesy to boot?

That's my two cents on it...

"Anakin, you're breaking my heart!" - Padme

A great line used for several months around my house. Absolutely over-acted.

Default George Lucas raped my childhood.

Episodes 1-3 honestly seem like really GREAT movies that are being re-played through the mind of an 11 year-old screenwriter wannabe as he describes it to his prepubescent friends.

The whole premise is really good, but the dialog was crap, the acting was HORRIBLE and WAY over-the-top (except for Samuel L, Liam and Yoda), and there was too much unnecessary fluff that could've been done without (Jar Jar, pod racing, midichlorians, immaculate conception, etc).

"There was no father. I carried him. I raised him. I can't explain what happened." (Makes you wonder how many times the Mos Eisley WIC office hears THAT excuse!)

Hopefully one day soon, GL will die from his beard-hair growing back into his skull and someone else will helm LucasFilm so we can get some REAL prequels made. Not to mention I'd love the Timothy Zahn books made into film.

Star wars is fantastic either way you slice it. the greatest series ever made and highest grossing as well. yes lucas has his flaws, but he is also worth billions from this series he created. cant take that away from him.

i do agree that the whole fight scene with maul could have been longer and more detailed saber fighting. he was a bad a$$ sith lord, too bad an appretice took him down

You know the funny thing is, as much as we complain about the movies, we will all more than likely be buying them as soon as they come out on blu.

Damn you for pointing out my fanboy flaws.

When they come out on Blu, I'll buy them all and watch them in order. And then I will never watch Episodes 1-3 ever again.
