    I didn't really think anyone would forget..I just thought it ought to be on pg 1 at least until the film ended..
    (Of course anyone who didn't know to begin with might be happy..)

    Seriously messed up didn't he, and heres our chance to be reminded he ruined the start. Although is an ok film, maybe.

    I have just seen it to many times because I made up for never seeing the orginals at the cinema :_|

    I watched the last 20 minutes...it was all I could bear...

    What a damn awful film. The presentation was terrible, the effects look dreadful - where is the texture??!! It all looks bland and totally uninteresting.

    And I laughed when I saw Yoda at the end! He looks comically stupid, nothing at all like the original Yoda and aged when compared to the CGI one seen in AOTC. They really didn't get the muppet right for TPM did they?

    It proves to me what I have thought for a long time, Lucas can't make films and he should stop trying. Let someone with at least some talent take over the reigns and make Episode III a brilliant finale...

    Oh, Yoda was making me cringe!!! Awful... absolutely awful.

    However, that was the first time that I've heard the Imperial March in the background when Yoda gave OB1 permission to train Skywalker- that sent shivers down my spine :p

    I have to admit, I think that the puppet department on TPM should be shot. I have never liked the Yoda puppet used in TPM, and while people have certain reservations about the story; I think the story is good. It's just let down because of bad acting on behalf of pretty much everyone except Ian McDiarmid. To me, that's what let TPM down.

    Still, I like to watch it. It is Star Wars, after all! We're gonna watch it, no matter what! :)

    I bet that when TPM:SE comes around, Yoda will be all digital.

    I quite like TPM, to be fair. Yes it is SLLOOOOOOW but so are all the SW films in the first two thirds.

    I definitely prefer the "look" of TPM to AOTC.

    Amazing film, forget how good it was.
    I was surprised to notice how much Jake looks like Hayden in some shots, even the way he speaks and acts are simialiar. When he says "I managed to save the pod, well most of it", it just reminded me of Haydens line in AOTC "This is a shortcut, I think".

    And the podrace, how TPM never won an oscar for the sound and special effects I will never know.

    Oh yeah and I agree about yoda looking crap, but if Lucas had made him digital back then people would have gone beserk. GL even mentions the dillema he had about digital or puppet yoda in TPM on the AOTC dvd documentary, and gues what put him off.... he was woried the fans wouldn't like a digital yoda! The man can't win :D

    Unfortunately I now remember how utterly
    annoying JarJar really is...
    and did anyone see Aurra Sing during the pod race?
    I was looking but never saw that scene..

    //Agrees wholeheartedly with TP.

    It was terrible. Just terrible. And how about the ITV 'cut' for the adverts just as the Trade Fed tanks start firing on the gungan shields.
