| Revenge of the Sith is awesome. People just lump it in with the other prequels because they hate them so much, but it deserves to be judged on its own. 3 and 5 are tied for my favorites of the series. |

A New Hope.
Though, when I first watched PM, I was pleasantly surprised by the CGI. And I quite liked the light-sabre battle between Maul and Obi-Wan / Qui-Gon |
Agreed. However I couldn't help but dislike most if not all of the starship designs and most of the costumes. I think ANH was better in terms of futuristic design, even if they only had models to work with. The design of the racing pods though, they were decent. I also couldn't stand the voices of the battle droids in PM. Way too childish and silly. Darth Maul was one of the few things in that movie that made it watchable. They should have given him more screen time. |

revenge is only good by prequel standards. it still sucks for the same reasons though. |

Although I hated the Kid, Jar Jar Binks, and the fact that Darth Maul got killed. Episode 1 was my favorite of the 3 "new" movies.
However. Any of the originals are MILES ahead of the new ones.
Also:
Empire Strikes Back is the BEST. |

Totally agree with you! Darth Maul was bad ass. I actually dressed up as him for two years straight for Halloween lol |

Revenge of the sith was kinda cool cause it tied things together, and Hayden Christensen was so much better than in SWII (which has gotta be one of THE worst performances I've ever seen). Darth Maul definitely rocked in number 1 too. The fight were he gets killed is awesome and almost makes up for how Anakin and Jar Jar are.
Still, they're totally incomparable to the awesomeness of the originals. Just the acting alone... The acting in the new ones is beyond words. Even good actors are terrible! I don't know how they managed that, but they did.
edit: Hayden Christensen was still in SWIII, but by comparison he was alright. |

| Revenge of the Sith is definitely the best of the prequels, but still sucks. Empire Strikes Back is clearly the best of all of them. Also, Return of the Jedi has a lot of suck in it. ing teddy bears everywhere. It was the beginning of the end. |
