I'm sure many a director would like to have "lost it" to the tune of $740 million in ticket sales. If everyone hates the prequels so much, why are people still going to see them?
Well, I think they are fun to watch and obviously many others do, so I guess this statement is also false.
And what are all the great movies you enjoy?
I actually liked all of those scenes. And really, they account for what, 10 minutes? But I know you want to get to the stuff blowing up...
Personally, I like the fact that the Sith are taking the galaxy over without using military force to do so. To me it makes them much better enemies.
But what do you care now anyway? You aren't going to see tha last one since you didn't like the last two. So if it is entirely senators in the library it won't affect you in the slightest. And if TPM sucked so bad, why did you go see AOTC?
I always wondered how they would be viewed if there was no Jar Jar (or at least altered) and a slightly older and more mature Anakin. TPM may be considered the worst, but some of the scenes in it are the best of the entire series.
