Star Wars prequels/Obi Wan

Been rewatching the Star Wars movies in chronological order leading up to Force Awakens, and just wanted to make a comment or two about the prequels. Last night it was Attack of the Clones, my least favorite of the prequel trilogy (so obviously the entire franchise) and so I haven't seen it in a long time. White everything Plinkett ever said about the movies is definitely true and actual good criticism, the movies are much better than I remember if you watch it "from a certain point of view".

I basically watch the prequels now thinking of Obi Wan as the main character, and I suggest every one else do the same. He single handedly tracked down Jango Fett and located the apparently unknown Clone Army, while Anakin was off with Padme in the most cringe worthy scenes of all time that basically brought down the entire movie

Ewan McGregor's Obi Wan is by far my favorite and most consistent portrayal throughout the prequel trilogy. He grew the most, from Padawan, to Jedi Knight (an exceptional one) to Master and on the council. And he basically defeated most of the bad guys throughout (other than Dooku): Darth Maul, General Grievous, Anakin were all put down by Obi Wan.

Anakin scenes definitely suck, there's no denying, and the prequel is definitely intended to be the story of Anakin's rise, fall, and transformation to Vader. But if you just try and watch it from the perspective of the rise of a Jedi knight who rose to become basically the most capable and accomplished Jedi, who tragically was betrayed by his friend and former apprentice, it can be a much more enjoyable viewing.

And Obi Wan went on to train Luke and put him on the path to taking down the empire, so his list of accomplishments grows even further. To Obi Wan, the true hero of Star Wars!!
