You’ll advert a hebdomad or so ago, I mentioned I was embarking on an adventure to check the Star Wars films with someone who had never seen them before. You can read my initial thoughts most that here.

Earlier in the hebdomad we had the opportunity to check the prototypal two episodes of the saga.

Watching Star Wars with someone who has never seen it rattling did attain me huffy to the flaws of the film, and though I fuck Phantom Menace with every of my heart, there is no offer at the modify of the flick to attain someone who has never seen it keep going.

The woman I watched it with wanted to continue, but she neither idolized nor hated Phantom Menace. “It is so not as intense as everyone makes it discover to be,” she told me. She rated it downbound the middle, 2.5 discover of 5.

Jar Jar didn’t seem so framing to her at all, in fact she institute Yoda such more obnoxious. It’s so recreation watching the wheelwork invoke in her head most what’s reaching and what’s not coming.

One of my selection exchanges participating Senator Palpatine. “What… Is he the intense guy?”

“He’s a politician and they’re not to be trusted, to excerpt Obi-Wan.”

“Oh. Well, that’s not a no.”

But the differences Phantom Menace and the rest of the saga become such more manifest when you check it finished those new eyes and directly before watching Attack of the Clones. I haw hit been more tense to check Clones after Episode I, but she was such more easily certain when she realized Hayden Christensen was stepping in to endeavor Anakin. She was a bounteous follower of his impact in Life as a House (which is a great, underrated movie, by the way.)

Attack of the Clones started and I could verify it blew her material back a lot more than Phantom Menace. It has such more kinetic forcefulness and a continual measure that only doesn’t permit up. It kept a lowercase bit more aweigh of her than The Phantom Menace and she seemed every bit as condemned by the fuck news in the flick as I ever hit been.

Then we talked most the movies for another hour after Attack of the Clones ended.

She was agog to find discover what happens incoming and we instantly began planning Revenge of the Sith. Out of five, she rated Attack of the Clones a 3. “It’s ease Star Wars, but I’m ease warming up to it.”

Afterwards, she wrote thusly on her blog:

We watched Episode 1 and 2, because I demanded I check them in visit and he’s the prototypal mortal who’s united with me on that. They were actually good! I don’t undergo ground everyone hates on the prequels, but I’ve never seen some of them so I guess I hit no comparison. They’re not my selection movies or anything, but I definitely enjoyed them such more than I thought I would. They’ll ease never live up to Trek or Firefly, but still. We’re continuing the saga over the incoming couple of weeks. I’m actually category of agog to check them all, which is awful if you undergo me. I am the anti-Star-Wars girl, but he poor me down. Everyone provide Bryan a ammo of applause!

Are there some questions you poverty me to communicate her as presently as we’re finished with the prequels, is there anything you poverty me to communicate her before we start the classic trilogy?
