I wish to understand.
You're one to talk :P Seriously, the prequels are a crime against filmmaking and they get every single thing about Star Wars and cinema itself wrong, aside from maybe the casting choice (and only the choice. Maybe) of young Obi-Wan Kenobi. Why would you rate them so ridiculously high? In fact, why would you rate them at all since they're basically anti-movies? Soft spot, nostalgia? I'm genuinely curious.
edit: somehow I managed to miss Bingowings' post. I guess I'd have to ask the exact same thing. I knew a person once who started with AotC and liked that one the most out of all of them, because she thought Anakin was cute. Is that why you people like the PT so much? ;)
Let's place it in a different context for clarity. In primary school, my PT scores equal...
TPM: F- (fail)
AOTC: F- (fail)
ROTS: D+ (pass, but barely, and my view of it may be deluded by the novelization)
I can almost guarantee you that I've watched Mr. Plinkett's reviews more times than anyone on this forum. I know exactly where you're coming from when you rate them 1's and 2's. The PT's flaws and Lucas' poor decisions brought about those reviews. And those reviews helped me become a better writer with a firmer grasp on character and plot. I borderline like them for that alone. They're entertaining and educational, and left a vast world of entertainment and education in their wake.
