I especially hate that they manage to make the great Christopher Lee look stupid several times. I hate that the great villain potential of Darth Maul was prematurely crushed.  I hate the overly cartoony nature of some of the alien villains, like the Trade Federation.Love: Liam Neeson as Qui Gon, Ewan MacGregor as Obi Wan. Mace Windu is a cool character, and I wish Samuel L. Jackson had been given sufficient takes to portray him. It is sad that the best played character in the prequels is Yoda...but that is to be expected from Frank Oz.  I love the special effects, and the lightsaber battles are good, good, good. The starfighter battles are better in the second of the prequels than the first. I wish that all of the Jedi had spent more time with lightsaber and battle practice...many of the secondary characters look like kids with toy sabers, not Jedi. The over dependance on CGI battle droids made it very hard for the actors to portray the fight...it looks like they were directed to do a set of movements...and then the action wasn't really matched to it all that well.Lord Pendragon, we are in accord. Except about Portman.</blockquote>
