It seems you all have problem with the story of the PT, which to me is good  (could have been better though). It's just the way of telling it that kinda sucks (and the bad casting, VaderisnotAnakin... indeed!). In other words: good story, bad script.

You mean the story about a nine year old boys induction into a weird religious order that dictates that he cannot love any one or ever see his mother again, who falls in love with an elected queen and obsesses over her for the next eight years of his life, before finally expressing his love to her, a gesture that doesn't go over so well, because he is worried about his mom, who he has not checked in on in eight years, so he returns home to find her kiddnapped and raped to death by Sandpeople, so he kills them, all of them, even the children, and the queen who is no longer a queen falls in love with him even more for it (aww, he's crying, I love sensitive men!), meanwhile, Obi-Wan discovers someone has commissioned a clone army consisting of clones of Boba Fetts father (yippeee! Just when we needed an army a miracle happens and it turns out someone who probably had ill intent comissioned us an army! Thank the force! We shall accept it without question and use it to start a war against those who disagree with us), not long later the clone wars break out, the opening battle of which takes place in... a giant gladiator style arena... okay, the war rages on for years, the grown up nine year old boy marries the girl who was previously an elected queen, she gets pregnant and he constantly tells her how wonderful she is and how much he loved her, then he dreams about her dying and decides to turn to the darkside, after a couple of second of feeling the power of the darkside, he decides it would be fun to kill some kids and does so, his wife finds out about this and gets freaks (funny, last time he killed a bunch of kids, she seemed cool with it), she gets mad and tells him to stop, so he kills her, fogetting his intention was to save her, his best friend come along and tries to kill him, but instead just cripples him by cutting off 75% of his limbs, then leaving him to catch fire and slowing sink into a lake of lava while burning to death (aw, brotherly love at its finest), fortunately he is saved by the new Emporer who takes him home and slaps a tight black leather suit over his charred body (kinky) and keeps him as his evil henchmen, hoping one day he will be good enough to stars as the villian of some decent sci-fi movies. Meanwhile, his wife who was previously an elected queen has barely survived his attempt to kill her and is going into labor, she gives birth to two babies who she doesn't deem worthy enough to live for, and despite having nothing physically wrong with her, promptly dies? You mean that story?

Yeah, it's brilliant! If only they could have had some halfway decent actors to pull it off...
