I enjoyed the freaky flick, though your commentary appears spot on.
I realized that Darth Vader packed on quite a few pounds in the later episodes as well; after much analysis, I concluded that this mainly occurred due to his apathy about life after Padme's death. So really, what else would there be for Darth Vader to do except inspire hatred and only live on Domino's Pizza? He'd be as bad as Jabba the Hut except Palpatine told him to "quit eating that fucking cinnamon bread!" Really.

Jabba the Vader would, I think, be almost as cool as Pizza the Hut from Spaceballs. I kind of wish Lucas and Brooks could have finagled a deal to work him into the prequels.
What?! Are you drunk on your own ignorance?! Lucas finally delivers a Star Wars prequel worth watching, and you can't even recognize its quality?! I can't be party to this madness!
We have slightly differing opinions about the movie, I think. I did actually read a few reviews and essays that changed my opinion about bits of the movie, like Anakin and Obi-Wan's fight telling a well-choreographed story, which I must have missed amidst all the lava effects.
Quite frankly, I think the vitrol would still be there for a lot of people if this wasn't the final prequel. Our long, wearying sojourn as a nation has ended so thumbs in the middle and downwards are being polarized up.
I'll gladly agree, regarding Kit Fisto. But I'm afraid I have to disagree with you on every other count. Count! Get it? Like, Count Dooku! C'mon, that's hilarious! No? Not even a little bit? Sigh...

Also, this movie needed more Kit Fisto.
