A lot of fans hated Episode 1-3. So fans like to go by "If it sucks then let's retcon it and make sure it never happens". A lot of franchises tend to do that like Superman, Highlander, X-Men and possibly Alien too.

Honestly, I think a lot of people's problems with the prequels was that what they saw didn't fit their imagintion. It's kind of like a problem with casting movies based on books, where a lot of it is based on your imagination, except everyone generally imagined Darth Vader to have a badass personality with variations within that and Lucas throwing a curveball.

Like I have said, there are things I find in the prequels that redeem them. The Darth Maul fight with Duel of Fates playing. The marching of the clone armies in the second movie and Anakin slaughtering the Sand people. In the third movie I love the music to the opening battle, the Order 66 scenes, the opera scene between Palpatine and Anakin (not to mention it is the only time in the prequels that truly builds on the mythos of Star Wars), the marching on the Jedi temple (Anakin looks so damn badass), and the fights between Obiwan, Anakin, Palpatine, and Yoda. Oh, and I love the light saber choreography between all three movies because that is the one area where the OT was lacking. To the other question, in 2006 Fox released the Star Wars trilogy on DVD individually and included bonus DVD discs with Laser disc converted to DVD copies of the untouched trilogy. |

Well my friends who had never seen Star Wars saw episode 2 and thought it was crap. Then they saw episode 4 and they liked it.
The prequels suffered many problems beyond expectation. They suffered boring characters and boring stories. Plus the CGI did not age well at all. Kassyhk looks more like it belongs in an older video game. |

They definitely did have some redeeming qualities, but overall they're hated for reasons well beyond just not living up to expectations and it shouldn't have taken a 6 season TV series to patch up most of the plot holes. |

Anyone else keeping up with Star Wars Rebels? I've been pleasently surprised by it so far.
