This is the only film in the Star Wars film franchise not to involve the Death Star at all. It is alluded to in Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones (2002) with a hologram given to Count Dooku. It is shown being built in Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith (2005). It is a major plot point in Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977) and Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi (1983), and it is mentioned in the script of Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back (1980). The plans for it are discussed in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016), and the Death Star is compared to Starkiller Base in Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens (2015). See more »

I loved this movie as a kid. I still love it at age 21. Sure, it can be a bit sloppy at times, and it switches from plot a to plot b constantly.The stereotypes can be jarring at times. But you know what, it is still brilliant. The characters are likable. Even jar jar is not that bad. The acting is OK. Not great, but OK. The hate seems to stem from old trilogy fans, not knowing that this film was merely trying to be something different. Yes, if you want a film that feels like the old trilogy, this is not for you. But if you are looking for a fast-paced, lighthearted sci-fi action movie with one or two smart scenes, good scenery, and interesting alien designs, then this is for you.
