I dunno what it means. But there’s much much more in this film that I love. Then there is in attack of the clones, which I detest. Every single scene of i TX except when he goes to save his mam.

Yet in total I’ve watched attack of the clones far far more many times than this.

This movie is just too crowded and loud.
The storytelling makes me dizzy.

I genuinely wish it didn’t exist. It’s appalling.

But out of it sprang Clone Wars.

Why do you hate it so much?

Clone wars was born much much later as a response to how bad and badly recover this film was.



I have a personal gripe with it. Don’t let that get in your way of enjoying it.

Honestly... and I'm sure it won't surprise many folks here (in fact it'll just allow some more ammo), but AotC is my favorite of the prequels.

Which is not to say that it doesn't also have some of the single worst scenes in it. Overall, though, it's me fav.

Revenge Of The Sith is underrated on RM, easily the best of the sequels.

Phantom Menace at least restarted it all, and it tells a superior story to AOTC, even if Jar Jar is jarring in it.

AOTC has several scenes and sequences that are great as well (the opening part in Coruscant, Obi-wan on Kamino, Anakin slaughtering the Tuskens). It also has the weakest scenes in the trilogy, and some of the worst in the SW movies.

2. TPM

The Padme and Anakin scenes are really rough, but everything else about AotC is pretty cool.

The droid factory scene was abysmal. The final battle could have been cool, but has a poor setup, setting, segments and weird dialogue.

Not sure if you’re being serious, but watching different kinds of movies are good. Action movies have always been a fun watch. If I said that Expendables 2 was an amazing movie, you would have a point. However, I rated it poorly. Actually my wife thinks those movies are really fun, and is a large part of the reason for us watching them. Happy wife, happy life.
