Although I respect everyone’s opinions, I have never understood people who say that the Prequels shouldn’t have existed and that it wasn’t necessary to know Anakin Skywalker’s backstory. Personally, I am of the opinion that knowing the backstory of a villain makes the moment of his redemption way more impactful. If you don’t know the backstory of a villain, the moment in which he is redeemed is certainly beautiful, but It is not so impactful. He remains simply that, a villain who is redeemed. On the contrary, if you know the reasons why he became a villain, then the moment of his redemption takes on a completely different meaning.
