Nah, having rewatched the prequels in the last year or so, The Phantom Menace is 100% a better movie than Attack of the Clones. (Both, of course, are still trash. But it’s like regular garbage versus a sack of fresh dog shit) https://twitter.com/daeisner/status/947499823669882881 …

The acting is merely mediocre -- it is the writing (especially the dialogue) that makes them really extraordinarily painful to rewatch

the scenes of Anakin courting Padme seemed bizarre and off to me even watching for the first time when I was like 10 years old

It’s more apparent in Attack of the Clones, when there’s a love story involved, and no impressive action set pieces to distract the audience like the podrace and the duel

Phantom Menace breaking out a new bigoted caricature every ten minutes or so for the first half makes it hard to weigh the rest of the movie accurately.

But the Phantom Menace has the virtue of NOT having Hayden Christensen’s terrible acting.

These reviews are much more entertaining than the prequels themselves... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxKtZmQgxrI&list=PLF34EBB1D68064251 …
