I feel the same way when I watched the ROTS opening battle, it is so cluttered, and if you don't follow it frame to frame and focus solely on one ship, you really can't figure out sometimes who are the bad guys, and who are the good guys. Then go back and watch the space battle in Jedi, and although you have a ton of ships on the screen it is easy to distiguish who is fighting who. I just think Lucas thought, "Lets see how many ships we can get on screen so people can say, OHHHHHHHHH! That is awesome looking," and then ten years later the effects wears off.
