    Dan McLaughlin Retweeted Star Wars

    Best lightsaber duel in the Star Wars films. Neeson was, as usual, fantastic in every scene. The pod race was a better scene than people give it credit for. But still a misconceived film from the outset, & the necessary elements of its plot could have been told in 45 minutes.https://twitter.com/starwars/status/1130125971179343872 …

        And one of the best musical scores of all the Star Wars films, and possibly John Williams’ career

        The worst. And I do actually mean I think he is the worst character ever.

        I wish the people that made clone wars and rebels could take a crack at the prequels. I think they would have turned out much better.

        Would you agree this is the least awful of the prequels? ROTS has plot holes you can drive a star destroyer through.

        Hey Dan, I don't think these movies are as good as you remember. In everyway. https://youtu.be/FxKtZmQgxrI

        The Phantom Menace lightsaber duels fulfilled all my childhood imagination of what the Jedi were. It was a goofy movie but I loved it.
