I'll go with RLM's view that they did not have a sympathetic protagonist. If we could have liked and identified with Anakin, maybe the prequels would have been mediocre instead of putrid.
George Lucas himself changed.
After he left star wars in 1983 he should have never revisited it, no special edition, no prequels and we would have a perfectly restored oot on blu ray.
Instead we have the Vader Saga of NOOOOOOOOOOO!
