***1/2 from me. However, in the battle against Attack Of The Clones, Episode I still wins, in my opinion: Jar Jar sure annoys here and there but never as much as the AOTC's tribute to Gone With The Wind... pictures of Anakin and Amidala romancing against the CGI-enhanced backgrounds should go to all encyclopedias to help us understand the "kitsch" entry. ;D Couldn't have said it better myself!

Yeah, I guess we agree nicely on this one - my first thought was to write "***1/2 from me - for the same reasons Phoenix mentioned".
Anyway - the poll says that The Phantom Menace isn't as bad as it seems... is it just on our board?

IMDB poll says 6.5/10
that is out of 75,435 votes.
I gave it a 7 on there. So it seems about right.

6.5 seems acceptable. I guess that when the first wave of disappointment - caused by the constant comparisons with episodes IV, V and VI - passed, people decided it ain't all bad.

I was wondering who would be the first to post a truly negative comment and vote like that. I feel like you should get some kind of prize, Frankenjohn. How about a Jar Jar Binks action figure? ;D I'm the second. Pod racing and other stuff like that was OK, but Jar Jar Binks annoyed me so much that I can't give other rating. I thought even about the lowest mark but after all I gave the poor label as I'm biased against animated beings tossed inside a nonanimate flick. I just can't help it.
