The prequels had their moments, to be sure. Some good, some very bad. Myself, I will always be partial to the OG Trilogy.
I found myself let down by the prequels. Didn't hate them, but wish they'd done a few things different.

IMO the only good parts of menace were the pod race and the two-on-one lisghtsaber duel

And I think a lot of people hate on the prequels just to hate on them. I agree with you both, all 6 movies had ups and downs.
Some things I liked about some of the movies, others hated. It's all about each person's taste.

All I know is the prequels gave me some of my favorite vehicles in the entire saga. AT-TE, ARC-170, Hailfire Droid, Gunships, Jedi Starfighters, Barc Speeders etc. +1 for the prequels!
And a ton of awesome new troopers. The OT gave me 1 new type of trooper per movie, IV had the Stormtroopers/Sandtroopers, V had the Snowtroopers, VI had the Biker Scouts. I,II & III had a massive amount of awesome troopers. Episode III had my favorites, the red Shocktroopers & the blue 501st Troopers. +1 for the prequels! And then there's Darth Maul. Nuff said! +1 for the prequels! |

I can agree with those points, what I liked the least about the prequels was the amount of romantic scenes, I understand that they had their purpose but it could still have been accomplished with les of that and more time for the great space battles

Darth Maul was great, I just wish he'd gotten a little bit more screen time. I liked Grevious, too.

that is why I like clone wars, more time with greivous and other characters, like my favorite bounty hunter Aurra Sing

I think Episode III should have been 2 1/2 or 3 hours long. It felt too rushed overall.
I don't understand why Peter Jackson can make 3 3 hour long movies about a guy throwing a piece of jewelry into a volcano but Lucas had to stick strictly to 1 1/2 hours. Hmm...I just double checked & it say ROTS was 2 hours & 22 minutes. Still felt too short to me. And my friends! Last edited by Steelgrave; 10-16-2009 at 12:17 PM.. |

That was always my biggest issue with III. Split it into two parts, make it three hours long, or something. It does feel rushed, like he was trying to get everything in there in the alloted time. Which is a shame, because I've always thought it was the best of the 3 prequels. I still liked it.
