When it first came out I thought it was the best of the prequels. The more I've seen it and the longer I've had to digest the whole thing, the more I think it is the worst one. Seriously, this was THE movie that led to the classics. If there was ever a moment to do it right, it was this one. The pacing was wrong, his transition to the dark side was not believable (damn, I overreacted and killed this dude...I guess I'm just evil now...yessss masterrr), and I just wanted to punch the emperor in the face (maybe that was the point...but in the others, I thought he was a pretty badass villain). Those things are still forgivable...they still don't compare to the Padme thing I mentioned. Seriously, how do you justify that? Did George just get bored and slapped an ending on there? It really pisses me off every time I see it...and I don't just get pissed off at movies.
