I have seen plenty of movies that are far worse (lately The fate of the furious). At least AOTC has a solid score, very interesting visual ideas, and was a unique experimental flick at its time. Some scenes are even quite good.
I actually agree with this. It’s not a “great” film. Maybe not even a good film. But it’s only really terrible when you compare it to a masterpiece like empire strikes back. There are some fan edits that I can actually enjoy the experience.
