You can’t love the PT and all the other films. Of course, that would be silly.
You can’t?
I think the IV, V and RO are vastly superior to the PT. I think TFA and ROTJ suffer from some of the same problems the PT does, minus the CGI complaints. I love all of the Star Wars films, much like I love the Clone Wars tv show and Star Wars Rebels because they all tell a much larger story about a universe I love.
The prequel films are nowhere near the quality of ANH or ESB but I think mixed in with the dislike people have for them is that it changed the story/characters they always thought they were. It seems like the film adaptation of a novel effect. People had ideas about what the Jedi Knights were, who Anakin Skywalker was, how the Clone Wars played out, how the Empire was formed and these films didn’t agree with that.
There are cringeworthy moments in the prequels for sure. However, I used to think TPM was just awful and Jar Jar Binks ruined the film. Over time, he has bothered me less much like the Ewoks would had I seen that film at an older age.
