   Watched Star Wars Episode II today, and it still holds up. As long as you can deal with some wooden acting and cringy dialogue, it's a damn fun movie, and while some of the scenes and locations look a lot more "artificial" and blatantly CGI than I remembered them, many of the action scenes and big set pieces are still spectacular, and there's a lot of genuine eye-candy to behold. Moreover, stuff like Anakin's authoritarian bent and his desperate desire to prevent his loved ones from dying (even dreaming of overcoming death itself) does a better job than I remembered of setting up his eventual fall in Revenge of the Sith.
   
   ...not to mention that Anakin's social awkwardness and somewhat off-putting demeanor makes a lot more sense when you remember that the boy spent the first half of his life as a slave owned by a Space Jew, and the second half of his life being bossed around by a bunch of celibate warrior monks who both revere and fear him, and who split the difference by not nearly giving him the credit he deserves.

     @zoomgoboom The only major problem was him so quickly going from being horrified by having accidentally killed Mace Dindu to actively slaughtering children.

     @ChristiJunior in retrospect the only thing I'm surprised by was him not going evil sooner.

     @zoomgoboom @LukeAlmighty Cliegg Lars made it clear that the Tusken Raiders are absolute savages, in the worst sense of the word.
