How could anyone think a film about the adventures of fun-loving boy Hitler would work on any level? The pros: Duel of the Fates. That lightsabre battle with Darth Maul. Maybe, Darth Sidious? The cons: Overt racism. Young Hitler. Everything else?

That said, it still has more going for it then AOTC. Pros: Count Dooku and Yoda battle. Obi Wan Kenobi, maybe? The cons: Everything else.

And, I liked ROTS, despite some wooden performances, and the dragging middle.

I was thinking the same thing! Or Joan D. Vinge's Hegemony/Snow Queen universe.
