    Obi wan is the best kind of sarcastic

    for example

    “Then we decided to come and rescue you”

    “Good job”

    I think the comedic moments are mostly harmless, aside from things like Jar Jar stepping in alien poop or fart gags. Everything else is pretty much innocent fun, though.

    Agreed. Innocent is a good word for the comedy. Innocent and sarcastic are words that pretty much sum up the PT comedy

    Compared with TPM, AOTC did seem to come as a bit of a relief. Everyone seemed a little bit more relaxed. But overall, humour just wasn't one of the prequels' strengths.

    Yeah. I think the PT had sarcastic humor that I adored. But you are right. The PT excelled in other aspects like emotion, choreography, and setting.

    I agree. I think the sarcastic humor was good, but jar jar has awful humor, and I wish we saw less of him, or at least fewer jokes. I get that he was there to make it more kid-friendly, but even when I was younger I thought he was just plain out annoying. my mom, on the other hand, whos not much of a Star Wars fan, but I've made sure she's seen all the movies, loves jar jar. I think its all about what type of humor you like, and how kid-friendly you think star wars should be.

    The humor actually didn't bother me much except for Battle Droids, Jar Jar and certain C3PO moments
