Rebalscum how many times do I have to tell people not to diss Natalie Portman. She is beautiful and brilliant. Theres plenty unexpected. When we first meet Anakin he is as innocent as can be. If you never saw the original trilogy you could never guess that he could grow up to be so evil. No doubt the prequal trilogy removes some of the original trilogys surprises when watched all at once. Still it gives the saga a complete storyline. Just as watching the originals first removes most of the prequals surprises. If you watch all six movies in a row it will have its surprises.
