So. Since the newest episode seems so promising, I've decided to catch up to what has been happening with the series. I've seen the first trilogy already, so that's done with.

The second episode is on TV tonight, so I'm watching that too. But the first episode - is it worth watching, or should I just read a plot synopsis? It has received very bad reviews and seems very childish, so perhaps not watching it would be better. What do you think?

It's worth watching the first two just to try and understand the plot better. Besides, the awsome soundtracks (especially in episode 1) and the odd fight scene make it worth enduring the bad acting and dialogue.

I wouldn't waste too much time watching Episode I personally, but I would still check out the duel between Qui-Gon, Kenobi and Darth Maul. Darth Maul is the only character from making Episode I equal gay status.
