No, I was all for the the new films up until a point that I can't remember. It was probably somewhere around the point where I heard the characters were all going to be in exile and learning that Kylo Renn looks like baby Darth.

Also, the whole idea of the victory of ROTJ rings quite hollow if the main characters or their offspring are going to channel the Dark One. At best it's history repeating itself, at worst it's bastardisation.

As for whether the prequels set the precedent for suckiness... there is always the possibility of the new films sucking in a different way.
