Watching ROTS. The lightsaber fight between Windu and Palpatine is just awful. Palpatine takes out those three other Jedi and they barely even lift a finger to stop him. What a missed opportunity. Just terribly choreographed and directed.

There are many good reasons for his abilities in that scene.
He has abilities the Jedi haven't faced a real threat in over 1000 generations.
Sith or otherwise. They're now complacent and assume they're the best.

Being the main one.

That's great. Would have loved to see them in action. Instead, the Jedi just looked like morons.

that's fine as a justification for how the scene plays out, but it still looks boring - poor execution of a perfectly fine idea

Im serious. the "everything great about" youtube videos really made me appreciate the prequels quite a bit more.

Yeah there's a lot in them to appreciate. But seeing those hints only really points out the bad stuff and leaves me and I guess many others going 'these could have been really great films' and sad that they're not.

According to this interview with Iain McCaig Padme was going to give Anakin a much colder greeting on Mustafar.

I’ve never done this before for any Star Wars film. watching the Phantom Menace, but with the commentary track on. George and Ben burtt and Rick McCallum are on it among others.
Has anyone tried this and is it worthwhile?

Man, I haven't listed to a DVD's commentary track in a really long time but now I'm tempted.

Got through phantom Menace and halfway through attack of the clones. Some interesting stuff for sure would have been better if they were seperate tracks and you could just follow one commentary. It’s rather hodge lodge jumping around the different people involved like George talking about a story point then jumps to burrt talking about a sounds design. Hearing George literally chuckle as he explains why he consistently has jar jar do some comedic (his word) stuff during really dramatic scenes is kinda painful.

Never knew about this. Could be good all three prequels edited down to one movie.
