As bad as the sequel trilogy was at times at least it wasn't the prequel trilogy.

Prequels, how many ways do I hate yet, let me count the midichlorians.

Revenge of the Sith >>>>>>>>>> Anything from the Sequal Trilogy


As bad as TPM and AOTC were it didnt ruin a character like TLJ did to Luke so yes I agree pure movie wise TPM and AOTC were worse than TLJ but Star Wars wise TLJ was worse.

RotS ruined Anakin. Anakin could and should have been a tragic character, but RotS simply tossed what little was there was of his character thanks to TPM and AotC and made him into nothing but a horny whiny teenager.

I'll grant I never watched the prequels more than once, and it's been a while, but I'll stand by the idea that the only good thing about RotS was the action sequences.

The idea that horny, whiny teenagers can't also be compelling tragic figures is specious. Emotional immaturity is a totally valid tragic flaw.

But rarely an entertaining one. Trump's emotional immaturity is a tragic flaw, but that doesn't mean I enjoy it.

Also the idea that its hard to imagine Vader being a whiny brat when he was younger is not far fetched at all .

No, but the arc they showed wasn't entertaining. To be fair, it's difficult to have an entertaining descent into villainy that makes you sympathize with the character. If anything, the fall of Ben Solo in the sequels was done better than the fall of Anakin Skywalker in the prequels, but that's not saying much.
