Lucas never sold me on any of the characters in the PT, except for ObiWan Kenobi, and when their fates are met at the end of ROTS, I felt nothing for them.

Sorry to double post, but I just want to give a big 'hear, hear' to CO's entire post about why, essentially, the prequels fail. No one gives a fig about the characters.
The same was hardly true of Luke and Leia and Han. The world loved them.
There are a thousand truths about why the prequels were inferior. But that's the ultimate one right there.
