OK. I'll bite. Here's what I liked.

Episode I:

  • Destroyer Droids
  • Seeing all the droids scramble to repair Amidala's ship. It was a great way to show what astromech droids are actually designed to do.
  • The look of Coruscant
  • Liam Neeson's performance in general
  • The lightsaber battle at the end of the movie
  • Wondering how these story threads would play out over the next two movies


Episode II:

  • The opening sequence as Padme's new ship flies through the foggy skies of Coruscant
  • The look of the new digital Yoda
  • The scenes of Clones marching in formation
  • Ewan McGregor's & Christopher Lee's performances
  • The scene between Obi Wan and Dooku, where Dooku reveals the senate is controlled by a Sith Lord
  • Fantasizing that Episode III would be about the Clone Wars


Episode III:

  • The epic scale of the opening space battle
  • The ROTS clone armor as a nice transition between Episode II and Episode IV
  • The EMOTIONAL IMPACT of Anakin's turn to the Dark Side (this part of the movie has a lot of emotion, even if the plot and logic behind the turn are lacking)
  • The tension I felt before and during the final saber battle on Mustafar: How would Obi-Wan defeat Anakin?
