I thought it was the best one since the ANH honestly.

I felt like it set a stage, and dropped the audience right into an emerging situation like ANH did.

When it said that Palps voice was being broadcast it left open alot of possibilities, was it a recorded message? Was he alive? Was he a force ghost? We never eventually really got an answer, but it set up the questions and I love the ambiguity.

If it had opened with the actual sound of his voice, I don't think I would have liked it as much.
