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)

A list of important reveals that were blown by the Prequels and/or SEs would be interesting.  Something like:

  • Jabba's surprising appearance
  • Yoda's surprising appearance
  • the Falcon
  • Vader is dad
  • Luke has a sister


Any others?  A lesser one would be the Jedi Mind Trick, because it's so cool when ObiWan does it and you're wondering what's going on.  But no biggy if you've seen the prequels in the order that George suggests.

This is where the prequels do some real damage... by effectively ruining some of the best moments of the OT.  It's like walking into a comedy show and having someone give you a sheet that lists all the punch lines before you get to hear the jokes.
