No, I picked up the first vol cheap for collection sake and didnt think much of it and thought vol 2 was better but I dont think as good as the films, how ever much I dont like Episode 1, If truth be told I dont hate Episode 2 as much as Episode 1 and probably could sit through the DVD if i felt like it, but i just found/find them underwhelming and just dont find parts enjoyable and both drag to me,
Now thing is actually sit through the fan-editted versions and can enjoy them and find them watchable. though they could have been better, as could the whole thing i feel if Lucas had done things differently
