    if people around here can sit through backspacer, they can sit through phantom menace.

    and vica-versa :mrgreen:

    I thought Portman's portrayal of Princess Amidala was a strong female character. For all the crap she has taken on this thread for poor acting, that was strong chops, in my opinion.

    but i am so in LOVE with you!

    phantom menace has the strongest lightsaber fights out of any of the 6 movies. incredible. too bad it wasn't until the end and for only about 15 minutes of the movie.

    They should have kept Darth Maul alive until the third movie, with his double light saber.. And let Anakin kick his ass right before he turned.


    Would have been a better build up.

    The only good thing about The Phantom Menace was the teaser poster. After that it all went downhill.

    Sure, the lightsaber battle was pretty cool, but it came after sitting through about an hour and a half of terrible movie, and it kept getting interrupted by stupid stuff like Anakin blowing up the droid control ship and yelling "Woohoo" as he flies out.
    "See a broad to get dat booty yak 'em, leg 'er down, a smack 'em yak 'em!"
