When was the last time you actually watched a prequel? (Or: Revenge of the Sith still blows.)

Watched ROTS sometime last year when it was on Spike. My parents were semi-interested as they heard that one was decent and wanted to watch it. It was about as good as I remembered it, which is good in parts, bad in parts, decent overall (my parents seemed to enjoy it for a friday night television movie). TPM I probably watched some time in 2007, I always had a certain fondness for it so maybe I'll see the Blu Ray next year. AOTC, maybe 2006 or 2007, but I think I chapter skipped about 1/3 of the film, if not more. Of course, I've seen little snippets of the films since those years because I had to reference something for Secret History of Star Wars. To be honest, I watched TPM and AOTC about a dozen times or more before 2005, which is far more than either of them deserve in a lifetime, so I have no real desire to watch them for a long time to go, AOTC possibly never again. I honest to god tried to watch AOTC in early 2008 and I just couldn't make it, it was so awful I had to turn it off out of embarassment. ROTS I don't mind, I seem to watch it every 18 to 24 months or so, if only from television, and that seems to be enough.
