Name 5 IMPORTANT things that happened in TPM that shapes the rest of the series.....
The pacing in TMP was awful, it demystified the mythology of The Force, Jake Lloyd's performance was awful, every character and plot point of significance is reintroduced in AOTC so really we don't need TPM and the movie was just boring.....But its better than ROTS.......Give me a break.....
Wrong forum, but I'll keep it brief. None of the movies had 5 good things going for them at all, so that's not a good metric for distinguishing them. TPM was annoying enough to keep me awake and left a deep enough impression that I can remember parts of it. That's a pretty low bar, but ROTS failed to clear it. AOTC cleared the annoying hurdle*, placing it in the middle of the pack. Not only do I feel ROTS is the worst prequel (much more boring and forgettable than the rest), I've found that many here agree. Just because so many share my opinion doesn't mean yours is invalid though.
* AOTC was more annoying than TPM, but that doesn't really work in its favor. I actually had to walk out of the theatre for a few minutes during AOTC, while wincing seemed adequate to stomach TPM. I don't disagree with any of your TPM criticisms.
I said name 5 IMPORTANT things that happened in TMP....Read before you reply dude.
