Rebel is gonna laugh from me, but I also prefer AOTC over TPM.
I saw the original theatrical release of the Old Trilogy on the big screen and I'm proud of it...
How did I accomplish that (considering my age) is my secret...

i still find it very hard to believe that anyone could prefer TPM over AOTC...
i still cant believe that GL made that POS which is TPM

The only reason people dislike The Phantom Menace is because of Jar Jar Binks.
My parents like SW TPM. My Mom has never seen the originals, just SE of EP 4.
My dad prefers TPM to AOTC; he does not like evil Anacin.
However, my mom thinks AOTC is done better. She has concluded that Palperten is evil.

I don't hate Jar Jar; I just think he was too much of a showboat for CG.

Princess Leia: I happen to like nice men.
Han Solo: I'm a nice man.

He was rather Gollum-like in how he was created. He was acted out by a human, yes (Ahmed Best). But, his motions and physical presence were subbed out of the final product by a digital character. Much like how they created Gollum. Andy Serkis actually acted through most of the scenes, but he was wearing one of those digital suits like what Tiger Woods wears when they are making his Tiger Woods Golf game. It's a sort of body suit with those white bulbs on his joints that are tracked by computers so they can replicate his real movements digitally. So far as I know, Serkis actually wrestled with Elijah Wood and Sean Astin in the scenes where Frodo and Sam are wrestling with Gollum. It's not as though they wrestled with thin air in anticipation of where Gollum would be digitally inserted.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Unlike how GL handled Obi-Wan's scenes with Dex in Ep II. The actors in AOTC were acting against nothing in most of the scenes after having rehearsed with stand-ins.

So Ahmed Best was given acting credits even though he was only really there for rehearsals?

Well, they had to credit his voice, too; just like Brian Blessed, though I don't know if Blessed was actually on set for anything.

So, in all actuality, Best really appears more on screen as the guy in the bar in AOTC than he does for the role in which he receives actual cast credit? How weird.

If I were him, I'd prefer eccentric; of course, if I were him, I wouldn't have changed the movies.

If I were him, I wouldn't be toiling away at a 9 to 5.
