I enjoyed the first two prequels. They're not bad movies IMO, but they aren't as good as they ought to be..

But if Lucas can defy expectations and pull off a great Episode III, then all will be forgiven.

Why is it called the "Clone War(s)" anyway? It seems to me that you would name a war of that calibur after the the type of conflict it was, and if you were going to be specific, then name it after the place/people that you fought against. Calling it the "Clone War(s)" makes it seem that the people they were fighting were clones. It should really be called the Seperatist War, or the CIS War, or something.

I agree that Anakin really needs to have had major event that causes his personality to splinter. I think duing the second movie we should have seen the change from Anakin - good, to Anakin - working for the Emperor. That way the beginning of episode III could have been devoted to the learning of Anakin's treachery, and the eventual duel and transformation. As it is now Anakin has to move at a lightning pace down the dark path.

I the political machinations of the prequel story-line is its only real saving grace. The acting/dialogue is so bad that it is hard to watch. I do have hope that Episode III will be better. Although, looking at how it shaping up, that parody film "A Lost Hope" may not be far from the truth.
