Just rewatched it.
Good action scenes, Natalie Portman is super hot at the end of the film, and the way Darth Sideous finesses the whole Universe is infinitely more interesting than the garbage happening in the new films. Major Spoilers Literally every scene and plot point has a purpose towards the ultimate goal of Palpatine. The only bad thing about the movie is the cringey dialogue. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I don't like sand. It's coarse, and rough, and irritating, and it gets everywhere.
From the moment I met you, all those years ago, not a day has gone by when I haven't thought of you. And now that I'm with you again, I'm in agony. The closer I get to you, the worse it gets. The thought of not being with you- I can't breathe. I'm haunted by the kiss that you should never have given me. My heart is beating, hoping that kiss will not become a scar. You are in my very soul, tormenting me. What can I do? I will do anything that you ask... Yeah, ok then TC... its interesting for sure, interesting dialogue definitely ... Copied to Clipboard!

Not really, since TFA is still better than AotC on its own.
But then again, looking at the fact that TLJ did its damnedest to retroactively ruin TFA, when considering what's awaiting for the elements introduced in TFA I guess it's acceptable to argue that TLJ dragged it down to being worse than AotC.

I can't believe how much people complain about this movie. It's unreasonable. Seems like it's held to a much higher standard than other movies, that it's a meme to hate it, that people fixate on a few flaws and ignore what's good. It's not nearly as bad as yall say

There was some bad acting and dialogue for sure, but there was also a lot of interesting stuff in that movie. Jango was cool. I liked the bounty hunter chase early on where we got to see some of the seedier parts of Coruscant. Kamino was a cool planet, and the Obi/Jango fight was good. The Jedi assemble battle in the arena was a hype moment as well.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choice-supportive_bias
Choice-supportive bias or post-purchase rationalization is the tendency to retroactively ascribe positive attributes to an option one has selected and/or to demote the forgone options.[1] It is part of cognitive science, and is a distinct cognitive bias that occurs once a decision is made. For example, if a person chooses option A instead of option B, they are likely to ignore or downplay the faults of option A while amplifying or subscribing new negative faults to option B. Conversely, they are also likely to notice and amplify the advantages of option A and not notice or de-emphasize those of option B. This is TC. @Milkman5 --- Don't like it? Don't watch it.

Yep, "shot reverse-shot, PS2-quality CGI, backflippin' Yoda, Space Diner, overuse of chroma-key, flatly shot" Attack of the Clones is a better movie than "plays it safe but is generally an enjoyable sci-fi fantasy romp, returns the series to its enjoyable hammy space opera roots" The Force Awakens. Get outta here.
Next you're gonna say that "does nothing of note except introduce midichlorians before being disposed of" Qui-Gon Jinn was a better character than "scavenger girl living on breadcrumbs stumbles into the adventure of a lifetime" Rey. --- And I am done with my graceless heart, so tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart Now Playing: Yakuza 5, Final Fantasy X-2, Minecraft ...

Oh no, two camera set up for dialogue scenes. Worst movie ever That becomes a problem when it's the majority of conversations in your movie. You could make a movie that's half bombastic action that's shot brilliantly, but which is half dialogue-driven drama - and you can bet your ass that making the dialogue scenes look/feel flat and samey across the board is going to cut into the quality of the movie as a whole. A two-camera set-up becomes a problem when the only want you express important dialogue is in the same "shot reverse-shot" style. That applies to any movie. Just about every movie will shoot dialogue like that, but when it's a bulk of what you're seeing, it becomes dull and weakens the movie. --- And I am done with my graceless heart, so tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart Now Playing: Yakuza 5, Final Fantasy X-2, Minecraft ...

imagine thinking swashbuckling is not entertaining.
Ever since Red Letter Media made the argument that swashbuckling or choreagraphed fights is boring, it seems like a lot of people just started parroting it mindlessly. At no point do you think Luke will die in the original trilogy or do you think Rey will in the new ones. To say those fights have more tension or stakes is fucking hilarious.
