It really WAS as bad as I remembered ..

So I thought, now that I'm the proud owner of the latest Star Wars DVD, that I'd go back and watch the whole saga right through from the beginning.

What that meant of course was that I had to *finally* take the cellophane off my episodes 1-3 box set after about 3 years of ownership (Xmas present - I'd never part with my own hard-earned on it!) and *finally* rewatch Episode 1 (The Phantom Menace) after trying to erase it from my memory after watching it just the once in the cinema.

The theory : it couldn't possibly be as bad as I remembered it to be, could it?

3 words (or is it 2?) JarJar Binks. Yep - it was every bit as bad as I remembered so have stopped watching after 40 minutes.

Which got me thinking - what other situations have you found yourself in where you thought 'you know what, I'm going to give this a second chance' but it turned out to be just as bad (or worse) than the first?

I'm expecting tumble but who knows there might be some stories out there ..

Sex with an ex.

It did help to remind me that no matter how horny I feel and no matter how willing he is I am better off watching paint dry.

Nah jokes. But in all seriousness, Darth Maul was cool. Just forget episode 2 was ever made. And Anakin vs Obi wan is honestly one of my favourite moments because of how good Ewan McGregor is. Although it's instantly ruined by Darth Vaders "nooo" scene

I thought Episode 3 wasn't too bad - but 1 was (and still is) woeful. Cut out Binks and all the underworld city bobbins and the rest of the film would have been ok I suppose ..

I think Episode 1 (or 4 if you watched it after seeing the originals the first time around) suffered from being made purely for the marketing materials.

As a kid, I always thought episode 2 was the best, I loved when the clones came to the rescue

Olives. Hideous things, black, green, whatever colours they come in. Didn't like them as a kid, didn't like them in my teens, don't like them now. Can't stand olive oil, either. I see loads of 'sleb chefs 'finishing' a perfectly good dish with a drizzle of olive oil...YUK! It's just wrong on so many levels.

Nope. Only awesome to lob at someone, but then you just end up with oily, olive stinking fingers...gonna just have to agree to differ on this one.

I liked episode 2 for the Yoda lightsaber fight scene with Count Dooku, same with episode 3 getting to see Yoda fight Darth Sideous (Emperor Palpatine). Yoda kicks ass although Sideous does give him a bit of a spanking.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no - just no. *heaves at the thought*

I do keep trying them though, just to see if my taste has changed - I hated raw carrot until I was 20-something, and I wasn't a fan of raw celery until I hit my early 30's, so I'll persevere...every 10 years or so. Damn, only 9 years 8 months & 3 days to go

The prequels are godawful, I wouldn't sully my eyeballs with them again.

I was bored rigid through Revenge of the Sith. It should have been an agonising decision to join the Dark Side - Wooden Christianson made it look as difficult as deciding between pepperoni and ham and pineapple.
