10 Cringiest Moments In The Star Wars Prequels

10. Palpatine Cheers For Obi-Wan

Despite being considered the best prequel movie by both critics and fans, Revenge of the Sith has plenty of cringe-worthy moments to its name.

The cringe train leaves the station right at the start of the film, with Ian McDiarmid exclaiming "Yeah!" in the strangest, most un-Palpatine way possible, after watching Obi-Wan slice up some battle droids during his and Anakin's duel with Count Dooku.

The first half of this duel, overall, is quite awkward to watch, with the lack of music making it feel unfinished, rather than heightening the intensity - as was surely the aim. It's cheery Palps though that's the weirdest moment, proving a distractingly unnecessary addition to an otherwise dead-serious sequence.
