I'd have to disagree; in retrospect, they were even worse than I thought at the time. Not that any of the SW movies were very good writing/acting/scifi to begin with... there just wasn't much (any?) competition at the time.

I like PM mostly because of Liam Neeson. I liked parts of the movie more than anything in episode II. I hated the whole Jar Jar Binks and Gungin thing. That I think the movie could have done without, or at least been greatly improved upon.

To bad people were to afraid to say anything to George. "Hey George, don't you think this whole Jar Jar Binks character comes acrossed as, well gay?"

*Blank look from George* "No."

A few hours later the guy who asked the question is gone. How dare he question the MASTER WIZZARD behind Star Wars!

Episode II

"Mr. Lucas, about this dialog between Anikin and Pad---" *Blank stare from Lucas* - "Oh GOD, forgive me. Please don't fire me. I beg of you Mr. Lucas... I do anything...."

Star Wars broke the movie mold. Pure and simple it was a revolution that inspired over a billion people. Not too many things in life come along that can do that. So ya, Star Wars, even with its campy dialog, was at the time, just what the doctor ordered for the world. It was and is one of the best movies of all time. Any one dare challenge this ought to think twice.
