      So true!

      And I’ll also grant that the emperor’s guard fight and the force projection fight both count to redeem the sequels, a bit.

          Wait you turn to attack the protagonist. A nice orderly line for one attack and one counter.

          Then there was the guy who straight up dropped his weapon before his turn, but pretended he didn’t.

      I also argue the world building alone makes them worth it. While the dialogue and plot had some issues, all the new worlds/aliens/the actual sith/etc. heralded in a new age for star wars.

      The world in the sequel trilogy is so small in comparison to either of the other trilogys.

      Revenge of the Sith has the best and most gratuitous action in the entire mainline series.
