I'm rewatching all of the Skywalker saga movies in advance of Rise of Skywalker.
Working my way through The Phantom Menace now. It's been perhaps a decade since I've watched it last and my thoughts haven't really changed. Jar Jar is annoying. Jake Lloyd was not a very good child actor. Too much CGI (which was good for the time, but of course hasn't aged well). But the my main frustration is that it seems like it could have been such a better movie with some relatively minor tweaks. Make Jar Jar not so annoying and cut down his lines, use practical effects instead of CGI more, and rewrite and handful of clunky dialog spots, and you would go from having an OK to bad movie to having a pretty good movie.
Oh, and what a waste it was killing off Darth Maul in Ep. 1.
