They are great movies, every bit as good as the classic trilogy (to me).
I just think it sucks to see people who are so ruled by their negativity towards the prequels. It's like some of you aren't even enjoying the classic trilolgy as a priority. You watch those films just to -not- watch the prequels.
You guys have threads where people talk about how they convinced their younger family member to hate the prequels as much as you guys do. Then claim they have taken their first step into a larger word? Sounds like a more limited world to me.
If the O-OT is really so much better than the prequels, then you wouldn't even be worried about how your family members see the movies. One of you even went so far as to admit they might actually like the PT better than the OT if they are young.
Oh my god, the tragedy of one of your kids being able to enjoy Star Wars as a kid more than you were able to as an adult.
Thank god they have you there to limit their enjoyment of Star Wars to only the things you happened to enjoy.
I just think being a fan is much more fun when you enjoy things rather than organize your hatred for something into a fine point.
Hear you guys nothing Yoda says?
Just because you don't like the prequels doesn't mean nobody else should.
If everyone is allowed to have an opinion, then what's wrong with me having one too?
Are you guys suggesting that I'm somehow sub human because I don't have such a mean spirited slant towards the prequels?
I just don't get how a person can say they are a Star Wars fan and yet focus most of their "fanship" on being negative about everything.
There's a lot to learn from Star Wars, and a lot of you just ignore it.
Not just stuff you can learn from the prequels, but from your precious O-OT before any SE modifications.
