Star Wars II: Attack Of The Clones

I have a bad feeling about this, says the young Obi-Wan Kenobi (played by Ewan McGregor) in Star Wars: Episode I, The Phantom Menace as he steps off a spaceship and into the most anticipated cinematic event... well, ever.

The original elevated moviegoers' expectations so high that it would have been impossible for any subsequent film to meet them.
