[my attempt to summarize: The Prequels weren't bad so much as they had an impossible job to do, which was to meet (nay, exceed!) everyone's diverse expectations.  We are all too old to see the PT the same way we see the OT, etc...]

While I agree with your philosophy, I think the PT is also just flat out terrible.  Some of the SW books I read are good, and others are terrible.  If your argument were more true, and the actual quality of the work wasn't as important as my mindset, perspective, and expectations... then I wouldn't experience some to be good and others to be bad.

Yes, we experience things differently as we age.  But yes, the PT are also just total garbage.
