Well, we share the same opinion then, because I thought the pod race in the theatrical version was quite long enough, and the extended version was just a bore!

But I liked the music

The... Crap! I could have sworn I had a list prepared, but suddenly I can't think of it! I'm sure it will come to me later.

Useless? How are they going to get of the rock if Anakin doesn't win?
If you think the podrace is useless do you also think flying through the Death Star trench is useless? I mean, they could have skipped all the useless flying in circles. Just approach the thing from the right side and just go for the "target shaft". Useless or not, it's just fun.

Would you guys feel different about the podrace if it wasn't cg but real models?
