Let’s not forget the Jedi Purge lasting all of a couple seconds.
FTFY
The Jedi are completely inept in the PT and it’s magnified in ROTS. They can’t sense Palpatine. They can’t tell Anakin is into some bad shit. They confront Palpatine four to one, and three die within two seconds. All the others are killed by fricking clones.
It’s so embarassing.
Yeah, that ruined Star Wars for me for a long time. I couldn’t believe the galaxy was in trouble without the Jedi in the OT because in the PT I couldn’t believe they would be smart or skilled enough to keep the peace for five seconds, let alone a thousand generations.
Oh and Lucas trying to force an Anakin and Obiwan friendship into the movie movie after all Anakin had done was complain about Obiwan in the last movie. I am sorry but I could not get over that, I just felt like Anakin was sucking up to his master in order to get a promotion, not that they were two good friends tragically driven apart. I wanted Obiwan to wake up and see what a back stabbing ass kisser Anakin was and kill him, so the climax of the whole series had no impact.
This is why it is my most hated of the PT, nothing in it had any impact. At least Jar jar was hateful enough that he had an emotional impact on me and in theory the climax to Episodes one and two either tied up their stories in way that would have made sense in a better movie or left us with a good cliffhanger, but the end of Episode three had no impact what so ever. It even ended with the exact shot i predicted the prequels would end with when they were first announced, and I was 12 when they were first announced so that is not a good thing!
So over all this is the only Star wars film I truly hate and will likely never be able to force myself to watch again.
