The best reason why episode 1 is the best of the prequel trilogy is not in terms of content, But that it was actually shot on 35mm motion picture film.

I am so sick of reading this crap. It doesn't matter what medium a movie is shot on. Did you ever think for one moment that maybe they liked it better because of its content? It doesn't matter if a movie is shot 100% digitally or not. It's the story that counts and the above posters find the story of TPM (aside from midichlorians and the virgin birth) to be the best of the 3. It has NOTHING to do with it being shot on 35mm.

Lordjedi, I gotta respectfully disagree. Episode II & III look like videogames, whereas Episode I has many scenes shot on real sets and real locations, so it is the one PT movie that actually clicks with the OT in terms of the visuals. I understand what your saying about the story, and I do agree that story and characters are #1 & #2 when it comes to movies for me, but real sets and locations, IMO, can help a movie.

Look at The Dark Knight, it has a great story, really good character development, but what makes it that much better is there isn't any CGI in it, or very little. Christopher Nolan says in the HBO featurette, "I try to keep everything as real as possible, as I don't like using CGI." So to me the 5 things that will make a great movie: Story, Characters, Drama, No CGI, Score.
