After seeing the excellent ATOC I appreciate the Phantom Menace more

I enjoy it alot now I can view it with hindsight.

Anyone else feel the same?

No.. not really.. hard to go back to TPM especially after seeing all of the action in AOTC..

I *am* tempted to try to sit through it again - I honestly couldn't watch it the first time because it actually got me so annoyed.

I know it's been said before, but Jar Jar Binks..........

Anyhoo - I'm going to make a point of watching it when it is shown next week on tessestrial.

It is still a very poor film, though. Like i've said before TPM was just there to set the scene.

Yeah, I noticed this. Even as I was watching AOTC. I think one of the reasons I disliked TPM was that it was so farfetched from the Star Wars universe I know and love, but AOTC shows more linkage, and the path from TPM to ANH is beginning to become clear.

I'm the opposite. I think now that I've seen AOTC I can see just how much better TPM would have been had they approached it differently.

There are aspects of TPM that I can appreciate now (Padme/Anakin), but after seeing AOTC I think it's been bumped down to my 5th favourite Star Wars film. Cheers.
