11/25   I saw attack of the clones on DVD saturday.  It wasn't THAT bad.
        Why were you people bitching and moaning about it?  My expectations
        were so low going into it that I actually enjoyed the movie.  Next
        time espisode III comes out, don't expect anything!
        \_ it sucks that a movie that looks so pretty and obviously had so
           much effort put into it... just sucks.  the acting sucks.  the plot
           makes no sense.  did you really care who's army was fighting who at
           the end?  what's with the stupid dialogue?  ok the fett and yoda
           scenes were cool.  [formatd]
           \_ Yeah, the acting sucked.  And I thought the romance scenes were
              overdone.  But I think you really weren't supposed to care
              about siding with an army.  They are all just puppets in the
              grand scheme and nothing can be done about it.
        \_ It was that bad.  The rest of us had only modest expectations for a
           movie that simply didn't suck and paid money for that shit.
        \_ I thought Attack of the Clones was better than Return of the Jedi,
           but not nearly up to the first two.  Sure the dialog was stupid
           and the acting was bad, but that is true of all the Star Wars
           movies.  -tom
           \_ I agree with Tom. You others sound like bitter old men.
              \_ wait, I'm supposed to be the bitter old man around here. -tom
                 \_ you're not old, a man, or particularly bitter.  you're just
                    overly self centered and have an overblown ego which are
                    entirely different flaws.
                    \_ gee, anonymous insults are so enlightening.  -tom
           \_ All 3 of the first movies were better than these last 2.  The
              only problem RotJ had was the friggin Ewok warrior teedy bear
              for-sale-in-stores-now! thing it had going.
              \- immediately after seeing CLONE i might have ranked it above
                 RoJ but after seeing it again, I would probably give the nod
                 to RoJ. You cant easily recover from the "Phantom Legacy".
