Anakin: 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 you ask.
[uncomfortable pause]
Anakin: ... if you are suffering as much as I am, PLEASE, tell me.

AOTC was an entertaining movie, I was never entertained or engaged with the shitty sequel trilogy.

PT had stuff to care about, the ST just shit on old characters for lame as fuck new ones. Kylo Ren is a fucking joke, Maul, Dooku, Jango, and Grievous would wipe the floor with him.

AOTC Anakin would make Kylo his bitch.

It's interesting that your barometer for 'stuff to care about' seems to be if a character can kick ass or not.

The sequels are basically fan fiction tier stories that barely made sense even as a self contained narrative.

You missed the entire point, let me break it down for you:
I listed the villains of the PT and each one was an actual threat and challenged the heroes. They were effective at their job of being strong bad guys the heroes had to deal with.

Kylo Ren was the least threatening, least effective enemy I have seen in a long time other then BVS Lex Luther. If the heroes do not have a powerful and threatening enemy to overcome the stakes are not there nor are the heroes impressive. Phasma, Snoke, and the loser Hux were no better so yeah the ability to kick ass mattered.

People feared Vader and Palpatine, even Boba Fett actually came across as a dangerous bounty hunter along with the others seen in TESB.

Dooku, Grevious, Jango and Boba Fett did fuck all in the movies. What are you talking about? Even Maul only had one scene of relevance.

thats all those movies are. the cast are soul-sucked charisma vaccums who mumble seriously at each other in hallways, but they pull in a particular crowd because large chunks of them are guys doing backflips and spinning around lightsabers and somehow that is entertaining

its like the people who watch really bad anime like bleach where its a universal fact that the story sucks but they say "oh i just watch it for the fights"

Yes.

Clones did a sloppy job, but it did what it was supposed to do, and didn't leave behind as much long term damage.

The sequel trilogy gave us stupidity and called it "theme", destroyed a decades-long culturally iconic character and called it "character development", and gave us jarring storytelling and called it "subverting expectations".

It was supposed to set up the romance between Anakin and Padme along with the origin of the Clone Wars.

Did it really do what it was supposed to do? All of the interesting and good stuff ended up being done in the cartoon lol

Nah. Its a fine movie but Id rank it the bottom.

The romance is what kills it for me. Its supposed to be the core of the movie and its just so bad. I cant even suspend my disbelief for it (yeah, yeah, thats where I draw the line).

Two people who havent seen or spoken to each other in ten years they spend the entire movie arguing, snipping at each other, making weird comments, being creepy etc. and then out of the blue its all I truly.. deeply.. love you.

It couldve worked if they had like been in contact with each other between Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones, or actually spending the movie getting to know each other and, you know, being like nice or cute with each other. But what we got was Anakin acting like a complete total weirdo, spending the whole movie having mantrums and bitching about everything and just being a creep.. and Padm finds that attractive?

No. Just, no.

Everything else is great though, especially when they get to the arena to the end.

The most I'll concede is that AotC is maybe, slightly less awful than TRoS. And I did really enjoy seeing fully-articulated CGI Yoda back when it first released.

Other than that, no. It is a genuine scientific anomaly that the first movie to feature a large-scale Jedi battle with laser swords and explosions all over the place could end up being as fucking boring as AotC was.

Nope, the prequels had a story to tell about the rise and fall of Anakin Skywalker and the descent of the Republic to become the Empire. Disney's cash grab sequels are nonsense mirrors of the original trilogy.
