It's okay.
Coming from watching the sweeping scenes and brilliant space battles of the Original Trilogy though, it's shit.

I still don't understand all the hate.

It's hard to live up to the original trilogy. Pair that with over 30 years of nostalgia and you have an unwinnable battle.

Not saying the movie was good, because I honestly thought the only good parts were the pod racing and ending fight, but yeah.

same thing my dad said. He grew up on the originals and saw each one of them as they came out in theaters, but even so he admits the Prequels were good, but unfortunately it couldn't live up to all the hype.

Honestly, that's the problem with the Prequel Trilogy. I imagine with better dialogue and some other changes they'd be perfectly fine movies, but they're still nothing like Star Wars.

I don't expect anything to live up to the original films, but I can think of a million ways the PT could have felt more like Star Wars.

For one, what happened to the aesthetics? Star Wars is unique in that the tech, for the most part, isn't pristine, futuristic, or beautiful; it's worn, grimy, etc. Heck, Slave I is inspired by a damn streetlamp if I recall correctly. And in the case of the Empire, with it's pristine, austere corridors, the ships still aren't Lamborghinis, they're monolithic flying triangles.

I could go on and on, the latter is but one example of how the PT failed to capture some of the magic of the OT.

i do agree that the starships look crappy.

besides the jedi starfighter form ep2. that shit was sexy.

I hate it how they try to hit the opponents lightsabers more then they try to hit the other person. They sacrifice tactical advantage for fancy spin moves and choreography.

I enjoy all of them.

Eh.

edumacate urself

Guys, the OT had pretty shitty dialogue too.

I feel like the 3rd prequel was the best. The dialogue was bad, but it has good action.

That's basically what everyone feels. 3rd one tied into the 4th one well.

Exactly.
