After seeing TPM which was a pretty big disappointment (I saw it twice at the theater, and it didn’t get any better unlike TFA which IMO was good the first time, then great the second time, but not (yet) better than the originals), I felt that AOTC was a huge improvement after the first viewing. The reason was it looked more like Star Wars. Everything in TPM was shiny and new and modern looking, and the lighting on ships and sets was all wrong. It wasn’t perfect in AOTC, but definitely headed in the right direction. I liked some of the excitement in the movie such as Obi Wan jumping on the thing and flying out the window and the battle with Obi Wan and Jango Fett although I wish he wasn’t in the movie. The romantic parts were pretty barf worthy, but otherwise I enjoyed it more than TPM, probably mostly because I wanted to like the movie. In retrospect, I don’t really like the movie. The only one that is pretty good is ROTS, but only about half of it. I always thought about writing my own Episode 1 through 3 and actually started on it once but didn’t get very far. I figured it was a waste of time because nobody would really care.
