    I guess they are both reckless and whiny, two pretty lousy traits to share, but I think Anakin's recklessness and whininess was in a selfish manner and Luke's was in a selfless manner. I guess that's why they one took the dark side and the other the light side. Never mind, Lucas is brilliant.

      Lucas is a good idea man, but needs someone else to direct and write/rewrite his ideas.
      Like his wife pretty much saved the first film in editing.

        I hated the prequels. Do NOT get me started on Jar Jar!

          They're not good, but I've found things to like about them.
          Jarjar is terrible. I feel bad for his actor as well as both Anakins.

            Jar Jar is unbearable, but I felt so bad when I heard the actor was suicidal over all the hate 😞

              At least the character was treated as annoying. Helped a little. And it's only the first film he's really prominent in.
              I do like how such a hated character is partly responsible for the empire.

                He was never given the chance to fully develop into Darth Jar Jar because of the fan reaction. He would have been a beloved character otherwise.

                  I do love that the emperor comes to power partly because of Jarjar. More reason to hate him.

                    Anakin was a huge bitch. Let’s be clear.
                    His balls didn’t drop until the lava hit them. He needed to be Vader for Ze ladies to take him serious

                        I actually did not mind all the trade negotiations and all the political ****, it was world building, or universe building in this case. I also did not hate Jake Lloyds acting and I hate how it ruined the poor kids life

                          I do like the political aspect. Hated it when I was 12 and Watching it in the theater. Me and a friend were just laughing at the goofy ass Asian caricature aliens.
                          Yeah, that type of kid character was popular at the time. Kids loved it. At that point, I think I was just a little too old to enjoy him.

                            I didn't so much dislike Jakes acting neither as much as I minded the poorly written character Lucas made him. Lots of mistakes…but at the end it was a complete story. Something the sequels can not claim.

                                The podrace scene in the theater or with a big TV and sound ind system is fun as hell. I remember it coming out when surround sound was just getting popular, and when the new, better theater just popped up in town.

                                  One thing I think is certain…williams brought down the house with the phantom menace's soundtrack! It blew me away back in 99!!!

                                      i actually loved attack of the clones…although the name never really landed.
                                      obi wan acting all james bond whilst investigating the clones and interviewing jango was hella cool IMO!
