Except he died.

everyone dies. Qui-gon died awesomely. If you're gonna die, you really can't top "dueling a sith with a dual-bladed lightsaber who only himself died because he got a little too cocky" do you know how awesome that would look on a tombstone?

Actually, as geeks, we care very little about chewy and more about one's ability to put together a cogent argument about the things s/he believes and the ability to present said argument in in intelligent manner.

Since your original "argument" was neither intelligent nor cogent, we responded in kind.

I didn't know we were having a serious argument. Well, if you wanna do it THAT way. . .
I think I will just organize all the ways how I think 1-3 is better into a list so you guys can attack them as they are listed

1. More jedi's. :D
2. better animation/enviorments/etc.
3. They tie in everything that happened in 4-6 into a whole connected plot line very nicely.
4. More emotion in some of the acting.
5. Lightsaber battles are 10x better.
6. Overall the whole world feels more rich in personality than 4-6 which, in my opinion, had a very bland atmosphere. In other words all the little details that were in 1-3 helped to bring a lot of the personality out.

Hate all Skywalkers. Really, all the empire was trying to do was bring some sanity to an ultra-liberal conglomeration of trade unions and system cartels, dependent on hokey religions for their diplomatic endeavors. No substitute for a good blaster at your side, kid.
