I'm a huge Star Wars fan as well and was not thrilled with the Jar Jar Binks character. I tended not to focus on him but on the introduction of other characters such as Darth Maul ( who was killed too soon) and Qui Gon. I've read many of the Star Wars novels that have come out over the years so it was cool to see characters from the books in the movies- especially the other Jedi Knights. There were parts of Episode II I really liked- the arrival of the Jedi Knights and the subsequent battle. Episode III was really good IMO and ranked up there with Return of the Jedi as my favorite. One day I will have my killer home theater system so I can enjoy all of them again.
