I know! It was all so absolutely pointless. The PT movies tried to display Palpatine's "plot" as subtle and ingenius, but even basic analytical skills would clearly reveal how wasteful and simplistic it all was. The only reason his plans worked was because the old Republic was even more incompotent by comparison and on every evel.

All three are sadly too true. The third one most of all. After RotS I'm surprised that GL even found the need to film real people.
