TPM has a good, well constructed story

What? There is another version of TPM?

Well, the basic plot structure is something that TPM actually did wrong. It has a beginning, and escalation in the middle and a big climax in the end. It even kept the use of lightsabers at a minimum so that the last fight would be more exiting. It also avoided showing us the first fight between Qui-Gon and Maul in order to make the last fight seem much more intense. AOTC and ROTS on the other hand have completely nonsensical plot structures. AOTC doen't really have a story as much as it's a very, very long build-up to a not so interesting final battle. ROTS on the other hand was basically just several climaxes with brakes in the between. It starts with a lightsaber battle, has several in the middle and ends with two of them at the same time. TPM may have had pretty bad writing, and to much CGI, but it did at least have a SW-type plot-structure, and even some well balanced action scenes.
