Vincent! What don't you like about Episode II?

I thought it was great! At least better than Episode I. Particularly since the story line really starts to bridge the original series with this series, what with the Clone Army being put to use, and knowing that they will one day be the Empire's Storm Troopers. Also, the progression of the Anachin character, a seemingly good guy who's being tortured by fear, greed and anger. The effects were better, the characters were at least a little more interesting than in Episode I. (if I never have to see another Gungin as long as I live, that suits me just fine!)

And partially I love it because it's a transitional film, just like "The Empire Strikes Back".

I realize you couldn't go into too many specifics the other night dealing with that childish, idiotic troll on the board, but I'm interested in your specific thoughts on why you preferred Episode I to Episode II.
