Well obviously. When your armour can't stop any weapons anyway, why take the risk that you could die from being punched as well?

Does that mean no human is meant to live? They're easy for Wookies and Gand to kill in a single punch.

Say, rather, that Disney was willing to cast the entire EU into oblivion to cleanse itself of the Special's taint.

The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn't; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all
We love our superheroes because they refuse to give up on us. We can analyze them out of existence, kill them, ban them, mock them, and still they return, patiently reminding us of who we are and what we wish we could be.

I'm no prequel apologist, but the Pod race was one of the Phantom Menace's few redeeming sequences. It was also one of the few scenes that wasn't recycled from the original trilogy.
That said, I don't need to see another one, so yes, I guess I concur with the sentiment.

but it was recycled from Ben Hur which did it first and did it better.

I can respect that. Different strokes for different folks.

I loved that scene when I was younger. Now I've grown up (a bit ) I can't stand Anakin's voice. Everything else in that scene is cool, but if I could just cut out Anakin's dialogue, it would be so much better.

EDIT: the only time we should see Tatooine is if: 1. Fremen appear riding freaking sandworms and start wasting the galaxy. 2. Someone glasses the planet exterminatus style.

You see a decent amount of them in Episode 2.
True, but it is them being murdered and if I can believe in the slim chance that they are ignoring the prequels then it won't count.
I'd like to know why they don't really like the others on Tatooine. I have to imagine it's something to do with the land being sacred and that they are trespassing as described in the first KOTOR game.
