I loved the first episode, which I guess was a middle episode or something, I can't keep track. I was a young adult, and the special effects of the movie were the best I had ever seen. I loved the scene in the bar, with all the strange creatures and the goofy music. Each one since has been a disappointment. I didn't even go see these last 2.
I find it laughable that Lucas has supposedly made the remarks about his intent for making the movies, and comparing this one to President Bush. I see it as hype for the movie.
Same here, it was cutting edge when it 1st came out.
It may not be fair to expect it to live up to the 1st movie. As far as politics in the movie it must have went over my head...or I wasnt looking for it.
