I dunno. I do see the short comings of Jedi, but to me there is still an incredible gap between the quality of Jedi and that of TPM. And yet another smaller gap between the quality of TPM and those other two film.

Name one thing in all the prequels that came anywhere close (like as in, within the hundred mile range) of being anywhere near as impressive as that Jabba the Hutt puppet? Or all the other puppets and aliens in that film? Or the great scene with the Rancor? Space battle alone is more entertaining than all three prequels combined. Or what about the throne room scenes at the end? While I consider ROTJ by far the weakest link of the OT, I still find some of the throne room bits to be some of the best stuff in the trilogy. As far below ESB as I see it, I just can't find the PT even comparable to it.

Had we gotten a ROTJ quality PT, I would have been one happy fellow. To me the PT is made for TV Sci-Fi Channel original movie quality, and even saying this makes me feel like I may be making a big offense against Sci-Fi Channel  original movies.
