I just watched an edit of Phantom Menace that removed all traces of Jar Jar and it's actually a pretty decent film.
>Solid cast (Neeson, McGregor, Portman etc.) >Amazing CGI (especially by 1999 standards >Decent action sequences, even with the Gungan battle >The lightsaber duel at the end is better than any scene in Episode 7
>tfw you just realize that liam neeson was in Star Wars

Which edit was that? The Phantom Edit?

The Phantom Menace is way underrated. Jake Lloyd isn't great, and there's a lot of cheese, but it's like people forget how cheesy the original trilogy was, too. Jar-Jar is annoying, but the underwater Gungan city was cool.
Honestly, Attack of the Clones is the only one of the prequels that's straight-up bad.
Cameron Howard
No, it really isn't. Jar Jar is just a symptom of how horrible the script was. Also that version is horribly edited and has some really awkward cuts, I don't know why they even bothered. The prequel trilogy has so many problems it's difficult to even save in editing.
>Attack of the Clones is the only one of the prequels that's straight-up bad. I like everything about AotC except 3PO's antics and a few spoonfeedy lines.
