not to some people.
it was perfectly ok for me,
and i had no trouble believing it, or watching it....
if they had been like the slow/plodding fights of the old series THEN
it would have been dull and boring..

Excuse me. I was talking to rcb. I don't mind that you answered for him, but since you did, I assume that you share all his opinions in this matter. As such, I will respond to you in that assumed context. And since rcb did just recently respond, I guess this is for both of you.
Rcb said he was able to get used to seeing old men characters fly and jump around in the prequels. Negative 1 said it was perfectly okay. I assume that negative 1 agrees with rcb that it would have been weird to see Alec Guiness and Darth Vader fly around. How is it okay and acceptable for one set of characters but wrong and bizarre-looking for another? Especially since both those OT characters have PT counterparts who are constantly seen jumping around like crazy. And, as I said before, robots and old men have analogues in the PT that do those acrobatics. I can't shake it from my head that you're implying a double standard only to support your opinion.
look at the actors flying in the PT and compare that to the OT. It would look weird. maybe not so much for vader, but obi-wan? he even says he's getting old for this sort of thing!
