When I think of the weak points, I'm amazed that it's any good at all.

nosebeepbear doesn't agree with me, but I think there was a decent ironic twist to Padme's death--Annakin's visions of her dying set him in motion to cause her death.

No, no. I absolutely DO agree with that part. That's precisely why it annoyed me so much when they lamed out and made his part in her death so indirect (and rather stupid, that's where it seems we disagree) instead of going for him killing her himself. It just feels like they took a big chunk out of the gloriously ironic tragedy they set up.
