Everything about LucASS' prequels are.
I completely agree. They radically cheapened the credibility of the first films. The Star Wars saga will never be considered great film making now. It will instead be long remembered for how vulgar the mass marketing tie-ins became. It may have been different if he left the two sets of films separate. People could choose one storyline or the other. Instead, he made everything in the prequels somehow related to the first trilogy - no matter how preposterous or small the story became. Even more obscene is how he altered the first set of films 25 years later by castrating and altering characters, and adding footage from the new films. All in the name of marketing tie-ins directed at children.
Sad.
