If you take out Jar Jar, The Phantom Menace is the best of the prequels. Not saying much, I know.

 Well, there's Queen Amidala's ear-bleeding robot voice, Jake Lloyd's cringeworthy performance, several interminable Jedi council/senate meetings, and the overlong podrace sequence no one actually likes.

But yes TPM is the best the Prequels ever got.

Hey, don't go putting words in my mouth! The podrace scene is actually quite fun in the theatrical version of the film, even if it does go on too long. In fact, I think that the entire Tatooine segment of the film would work well on its own. I wonder if someone has done an edit starting on Tatooine from Anakin's perspective.

Annnyyywayyy, how about them Ewoks?

 Heh, go watch the phantom menace deleted scenes. It could have been even longer!

Actually, the Empire and ROtJ deleted scenes are very interesting too. Lots of cringe worthy dialogue and prequel-esque pacing. The full versions of the han/leia tunnel scene and luke/leia medical center scenes are beyond awkward.
