One thing that just crossed my mind, was that AOTC is so much different in many ways. In all the other movies, you got to see it from the villains's point of view throughout the entire movie. In AOTC we only got this privilege at the end, and not much at that. It has always been a tradition that the storyline is scattered at the end, meaning that we see the different people doing different things at the same time.
In ROTJ for instance, we had 3 POV's: Luke fighting Vader, the Battle of Endor and the Ewok battle. And everyone was at their lowest at the same time. Luke was almost converted by the Emperor, the Rebels were captured at Endor and the Rebels were about to lose in the space battle, before it turned for the better. In TPM we saw the same thing, only from 4 POV's. And once again, everybody was at the lowest at the same time. The Gungans were losing, Qui Gon was killed, the Queen was captured and Anakin was about to be killed. In ANH and TESB we also experienced this, this time from 2 POV's: The confrontation with Vader AND the escape of Leia and Lando in TESB, and the battle of Yavin AND the perspective of Tarkin on the Death Star.
But in AOTC, we only see it from one POV, because everyone is in the same place at the same time. Do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing? Would you prefer it if the movie had the same layout as the other movies? Is AOTC better or worse than TPM because if this?
