There's also one (among many) nit-picky thing that's bothered me about the prequels. When the Jedi talk about their force abilities, they refer to their "powers", as if they are superpowers. In the OT, the Force gave a Jedi his "power", which I took to mean a spiritual or mystical inner strength. But I guess all that went out the window with the introduction of midichlorians.

Plus, I hate the overall look of the PT, with the sleek shiny ships, etc. I love the lived in look of the OT.

Well I love the look of the prequel trilogy, and much prefer it to the look of the original trilogy, and not only is it fitting, as the former was how things were before the Emporer took over and everything was running pretty smoothly and the latter was after the Emporer took over and Rebels were basically working with what scraps they could pull together, but it looks better IMO as well. I think the reason most original trilogy fans don't like the feel of the prequel trilogy is because lots of them grew up with the look of the original trilogy, much like I prefer the look of the prequel trilogy over the look of the original trilogy not just because I think its better, but because I grew up with it. However that's not the only reason why I like the prequel trilogy. I like it because I think it's fantastic; the tragedy, the epic battles, the Jedi, the characters, everything.
