TPM: Almost any scene with Jar Jar. I tried to love him, I really did, if only for my daughter’s benefit (She was 3 when TPM came out) I tried. I think the super-duper, quadruple back-flip sow-cow dive Jar Jar made was one of the worst moments. The E.T.s in the Senate. You know the ones that confirm that Earth exists in the GFFA.

AOTC: Anakin’s fall on Coruscant. He would need to use the force not only to slow his fall, but also to accelerate to about 195MPH in order to grab the sky-car without tearing his arms off.

ROTS: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. The Buzz-Droids are bad as well. As my son said, “Hey dad if they can get droids there can’t they get explosives there easier and cheaper?” I just sighed and said, “Yes son.”

ANHSE: Greedo and the Jabba scene that followed and essentially covered the same crap that was covered by Greedo. Those two scenes destroy three characters for me; Han because he was always a hero instead of developing into one. Greedo because he’s now the absolute worst bounty hunter ever. Jabba because I doubt Capone would let Ness live if he stepped on his shoes. Jabba should’ve dropped Han the moment he stepped on his tail. The way things sit now Jabba isn’t ruthless, he turns the other cheek or tail as the case may be.

ESBSE (First SE): Luke’s scream.

ROTJ & ROTJSE (First and Second SE): The Ewoks. It’s bad enough that the Rebels can kill a Storm Trooper with a shot to the forearm, but now Ewoks can do it with a rock to the forearm. Chewie’s Tarzan yell. “Jedi Rocks”, nobody remembers the Jedi and Rock is a term from our universe. HC as a force ghost which proves that Luke didn’t redeem Anakin.

I’m at work so I can’t put up any screen caps. Sorry.
