    Oh yeah, I was suppose to be going through all the stupid prequel shit wasn't I? Didn't take to long into this that I remembered why I stopped those long six months ago. Attack of the Clones for me is easily the worst out of the bunch for a multitude of reasons. The main one is rather simple really, it's just an incredibly flat experience. Yes it isn't as inconsequential as episode one - seriously, in retrospect Episode I really adds nothing to the overall story arc of Lucas's saga (see Machete Order) - doesn't have bad child acting, nor really is it as boring. Just none of it, for me, resonated at all - I take nothing away from the movie at all. It just kind of goes through its motions rather effortlessly. Oh here's them chasing down that bounty hunter, oh here's Kenobi going to that one planet that rains all the fucking time, oh here's Anakin & Padme frolicking on the set of where Little House on the Prairie shot its intro sequence, oh here's some jedi entering a Roman colosseum SWAT style, oh here's Yoda & Dooku having the most ridiculously impractical sword fight I've ever seen. It's just ... whatever. Yes, the movie is sorta tolerable when it's just a CGI/action fuckfest. But dear god when it isn't it is incredibly unbearable - which leads to my second complaint. Dear god is the dialogue fucking atrocious in this. I criticized the first for the very same thing, but god does it feel so much worse here. The people still deliver it without any conviction, and this time it isn't just about boring Galactic Republic CSPAN shit. Interlaced in this is my third complaint. Holy fucking Christ the romance tale is fucking awful, just god fucking dammit all to hell. I'll stomach most of the dead inside delivery of boring bullshit politics that I don't care about, but when I get the dead inside delivery of the incredibly cliche - "who gives a shit" - romance dialogue I believe my threshold of "how much I can take" is broken beyond all repair. There is absolutely no chemistry between these two people, at all. They run through the check list of the type of stupid shit bad rom-com characters say - "oh ur a this & i'm a that, this can't work lel", "i can't let u giv up ur life for me lel" " oh nvm i luv u lel " bunch of fucking nonsense and a waste of my damn time - and do not connect in any meaning full way that will make me give any fucks. But most importantly this leads to my last complaint that I will go into. HOLLY FUCKING SHIT HAYDEN CHRISTENSEN IS THE FUCKING WORSE THING EVER. Dear god can this guy act at all? Like seriously I'm genuinely asking here. The dudes fucking awful, I can't take anything the fucker says seriously. The dude attempts at wit makes him look like the type of smug asshole "dude bro" who drinks bud light and tries to go to college parties at the ripe age of 36, the dude attempts at anger makes him look like the crying child whose mom didn't buy him a toy when they went to Walmart - he some how performs melodrama & snark with monotone. How am I suppose to take anything this fucker does/says seriously? And to top it off the dude gets to deliver some of the movies cringiest dialogue cause of the shit romance he has to be apart of - absolutely wonderful, thanks Georgey. Again though - like with Episode I - I'm not saying "OMG WORST MOVIE EVER". Though what I am saying is Yes I don't like it and Yes I think it's pretty bad. I'm incredibly bored by it and I get no enjoyment out of it. I don't fucking like at all is what I'm getting at. Like I really don't like it. At all. At. All.

    After rewatching Attack of the Clones, my opinion on this movie has really changed.
    First off, the CGI is awful. Really, really awful-- as if LucasFilm had already begun work on The Clone Wars, and recycled the assets for use in Attack of the Clones. It's like if animated Big Hero 6 characters appeared in a live-action Avengers. What's worse, the CGI is heavily overused, and it's not much of an exaggeration to say 70% of the movie is CGI.
    But... the B-movie feel and cheesy dialogue actually made me enjoy the movie. I'm not sure if it was "so bad it's good," or a genuinely good comedy sci-fi. Even whiny Anakin gave me a good laugh. Give it a watch while keeping what I've said in mind, and you can't help but laugh! It's funny!
    You're alright, Episode II. You may not be Star Wars, but you're alright.

    ... fuckin piece of shit

      Editing … That's the problem, it's not supposed to be funny. And don't get me wrong, I love comedy, but Lucas was going for a Titanic killer with theses dialogs... it's pretty sad and it makes me sad more than I enjoy them, maybe because I'm (or was) too much involved in Star Wars

      Editing … No matter how much George Lucas wants it to be, Attack of the Clones and The Phantom Menace just aren't Star Wars movies. #Fanboys is more of a Star Wars movie. Even the Holiday Special at least captured some of the Star Wars "feel" that the prequels could not.

      Editing … About a week after this movie came out I was babysitting my friends' kids and they were already making fun of it, "I killed them all! I killed the women, and the children! I hate them!" These are super little kids we're talking about and even they knew that scene was awful

    I have to disagree with the average score here (5.2/10 at the time of writing). I think this is quite a step up from Episode I. It felt more action-packed, and I liked that we got to see more of Padme and young Anakin, and the other Jedi. It also delved further into the inter-planetary politics which I thought was cool. And significantly less Jar Jar Binks! Nice.
