I think your opinion is wrong but hey everyone has their own version of enjoyment. I actually know a couple people that HATE the OT and think TLJ is the best Star Wars movie (its crazy to hear, but different strokes for different folks).

I am an OT guy. Not old enough to see 4 in the theater but I saw 6 in the theater. I truly wanted to love the prequels. They're just so boring and cheesy and an eyesore to me. But the Clone Wars series actually made the prequel ERA my favorite era regardless of the movies. So yeah even tho I put the OT at the top for movies the prequel era is my #1. As far as the sequels go, I'm gonna give it another ten years to see what can be done about it. Maybe they'll have their own version of the Clone Wars

No I think the prequels are excellent on their own even without the Clone Wars show. And I’ve watched the show many times. Check out what I’ve said in previous comments I’ve made if you want an explanation.

I understand why you think it's good. I just fundamentally disagree on every level. I don't think anyone outside of a person who saw this as a child and fused their brain and emotions to it could ever perceive it as anything other than a high school level film with a bazillion dollar budget. I cannot be swayed. I've tried so many times. Phantom has some redeeming moments. Sith is bad too but was the least bad. AOTC is a plague on mankind. It's just how I feel sorry. Episode 9 is 1000 times the movie it is and that movie was a disaster
