What was the "fatal flaw" of the Prequels if you think they sucked? (aka. Let's take a break from hating on the blu-rays)

To me, the fatal flaw was trying to make a modern copy of the OT, and failing tremendously.

It's like poetry my ass, it turned out to be a childish half-assed copy. There's a major difference between a movie or show for children and a childish movie and G.F.Lucas just doesn't understand that. he truly believes people hate the PT because it was aimed at young kids...no, we hate it because it's irrelevant, stupid and plain bad. Just look at Doctor Who, now THAT is respecting an audience, young and adult.

 

Same case with CARS2, and I absolutely love and respect PIXAR with every cell in my body... A shinier, faster more intense copy of the original aimed at selling toys... and it bombed. Remind you of anyone?

Brave looks really good tho, so they are entitled of making a flawed one I think, it was going to happen sooner or later. Just hope it's the exception to an otherwise perfect record of STORIES.

 

With the PT, as it should be with every move, TVshow or book it's all about the story and its characters. The PT deeply lacks in both, G.F.Lucas has gone so far from reality that his own quote from many interviews from the past that technology should serve the story and not the other way around just goes to show what a hypocrite little creep he has become.
