It was shit then and it's even worse now. Literally unwatchable. I hate that zoomera have aged up enough to poison the well of discussion and claim this trash was good.

shills constantly say that the sequels being bad magically makes the prequels good
The only people who say that are disingenuous mouse Black person shills. People who like the prequels like them for what they are.

One of the most significant events in the history of the Malaysian economy was the Asian financial crisis, which caused Malaysia's GDP to shrink from US$100.8 billion in 1996 to US$72.2 billion in 1998.

But seriously OP, have a nice day for defending this trash. You just have nostalgia for it from when you were 10.
jarjar binks was kino. he was the key to all of this. without the backlash to his presence in the first film, the prequel trilogy would have been truly epic.
The Phantom Menance: 8/10
Attack of the Clones: 6/10
Revenge of the Sith: 7:10
Zoomers are seriously saying the CGI was bad, holy shit. It even holds up better than the other two prequels shot on shitty digital. TPM looks fricking beautiful. I understand a certain level of disdain for the other two, but TPM haters are largely butthurt that they discovered 2 decades late that they’ve been obsessing over kids’ movies.
you moron, the the whole podracing scene still holds up really well up to this day and we have to think this was made in 1999, before the 2000s. Because it wasn't just CGI fest, but with props and practical effects.
This absolutely doesn't hold up. Without nostalgia goggles you'd see what lame bullshit this is. So glad I never watched the prequels when they came out.
some godawful CGI and too much jar-jar aside this movie is pretty good, a great start to the trilogy, and a good friend
>godawful CGI
have a nice day homosexual. It was cutting edge in its day. Even ahead of its time.
Nah. A lot of it is okay but the final battle is laughable.
It was shit then and it's even worse now. Literally unwatchable. I hate that zoomera have aged up enough to poison the well of discussion and claim this trash was good.

It's true that the cast is full of great actors.
And it's also true that many of their line deliveries were memorable.

how many of the prequel posts are bait and how many of them are 27 year old manchildren angry at the world for hating shitty movies
watch the RLM reviews

Anyone watched any of the fan edits yet? I want to check one out next time I watch TPM.
>taxation of trade routes is the main hook for my massive new science fiction film
>I may have gone too far in a few places
it's a huge source of income. many countries relied on the taxation of trade routes to even exist independently.
boring and uninspired

nice webm, you fricking donkey
if you wanted to discredit your own post - congratulations, you've made it
Prequel hate is literally boomer/gen X nostalgia like sequel hate is just millenial nostalgia. Simple as frick
Counterpoint: prequelshit is bad. And so it's sequelshit. Any appreciation is contrarianism
Still waiting for the guys who did Backstroke of the West to do the same for this steaming pile of kino.
