Okay let's get off the topic of riddick and the abyssmongers ^^
I didn't say I hated Ep 1&2... I just didn't love them, and I was very disappointed when I saw them, and was very happy to see the revenge of the sith had taken notice of what people disliked.
I did not like the fact that in Ep 1 there was : no intrigue at all (a 2h30 movie just to get palpatine elected, and young skywalker introduced... a bit too hard for me to buy), the midi chlorians (dude what a shitty scientifical explanation of fucking microscopic entities had to do with the mystical teachings of Obi Wan and Yoda), the mutism of dark maul (why is he fighting for...and what is the revenge of the sith they are talking about ???... I knew what it was about, but for someone who hasn't read/seen anything on the sith... a revenge uh, what for ? why ?), and most of all... what I HATED in Ep1, this I hated, was that Lucas, who had apparently no sufficient imagination for this episode, tried to recreate a environment of tension and conflict that made the success of A New Hope, and miserably failed, throwing at us a bone made of political maneuvers designed by the dark lord of the sith to show us a glimpse of a dying republic... where was the tensions... where were the heroes ? where the hell was the pression that follows us when the crew is trying to get out of the first Death Star, and when Luke is going to get his single shot against the Death Star with Vader in his back ?
And don't tell me about the mystery that surrounds the sith...there is no mystery, just two guys in black robes acting like they were scary and had control on everything, manipulating THE trade federation (why are they afraid of Palpatine anyway, or why did they join him ? nobody knows)... but the dual bladed lightsaber was awesome, and the fight... gosh ^^
What I didn't like in Ep 2: Anakin (not the actor, cause he was so good at playing a youngster so sure he's the best at everything that he made an unbearable character, I wanted to punch him throughout the whole movie... what a jerk), the romance (damn, how many cliches did Lucas had to exploit, the lunch in the fields, the kiss at the balcony, the lovers next to the cheminee... just to see a pathetic scene where Padme said "I truly, deeply love you"...why, how come, how did he seduced her, I haven't seen that ?), the Count Dooku (what the hell is he doing here ? who is he ? why trying to pretend he may not be one of the baddies... and don't tell me it's clear, I watched Ep 2 with the audio comments of Lucas, and he said he planned it to be that way), Jango Fett (why a bounty hunter would accept to be cloned for money, and then stick with the cause of the sith... he has nothing to do with them, he's a bounty hunter... it's his job not to give a damn about anything, but if the money's good... okay that can do it), and Obi Wan (what a looser this guy.... he fucks up everything he approaches., I wonder how he managed to get to the rank of master being so dumb).
Bref, about Bobba, what was cool, is that he was mysterious, smart, deadly and quick...and he was with Vader... but not really on his side... he worked for Jabba...and he got Han Solo with his own trick. All you can see in Jango is a jerk who god knows why has abandoned a life of danger and adventures to just sit in Kamino and cash his checks and get a son cloned from himself... great character... bravo George... and the dumbest thing of all about him... where does he go after his fight with obi wan... to the very place he should not go to... the secret hiding place of the baddies... man gimme a break you can be a bounty hunter being that stupid.
So if I may sound very familiar with those critics... I must admit I liked a few things in Ep 1&2, enough to save them from my eternal wrath, but not enough to dare mark them as good pictures... far from it.
