That's more of that subtle commentary on racism and classism that Lucas is always talking about.

I'm watching this now. Somehow the dialog gets worse every time I watch it.

I hope someday I’ll come to like this one. There should be a lot to love. It’s a Star Wars.
But man is it rough.

Love this one

The car chase scene in Corruscant is cool.

Fett/Obi Wan fights are awesome. The Seismic charger was incredible in the cinemas.

The finale is brilliant
The fight in the colosseum, All The Jedi’s Arriving, Fett vs Windu

Then Dooku vs Obi Wan/Anakin

Dooku vs Yoda Was my fav.

The cinema went nuts when Yoda drew his lightsaber.

I went to see this one with a group of friends, one of them doesnt know nor care about SW at all.

After the movie he asked me, super serious...why the fuck the crowd went nuts when the little green midget fought?

The “Yo da man” commercial with this footage in it was a blessing, in that I was able to save the price of a movie ticket because I had just been told by the movie that it sucked.

I’ve found something nice to say about this movie c

Be seated.

The intro is pretty great. The slow approach flying through the mist and clouds through coruscant is beautiful.

Then it all goes to shit the moment they land and you don’t even buy Padmes in any danger really. But the fly through bit is great.

It Still hurts me that Di Caprio turned down being Anakin.

No offence to Hayden but Leo would of ruled.

Attack of the clones is a great movie. Star Wars most underrated movie imho

I think I've seen this more than the other prequels, and the acting and dialogue somehow gets worse with every viewing.
