Best: Yes, the final lightsaber duel is cool and all, but the best part is without a doubt the podrace on Tatooine. Even if you don’t like Star Wars or the prequels, you can still enjoy cool speeders going really fast. It’s also an impressive example of how the movie was pushing CG in films forward a full decade.

Worst: I’m so happy that Jar-Jar Binks’ actor has been accepted by the Star Wars community and has been allowed to return to the franchise as a cool Jedi. That’s great. What’s not great is Jar-Jar. No offense to the talented artists or actor Ahmed Best, but Jar-Jar is an annoying character that only gets worse each time I watch the film.
