I like many hate the Star Wars Prequels. A friend of mine only saw them a few day ago (he avoided them due to the overwhelming amount of hate for them) and now he will not stop complaining about how bad they are.

Today I finaly had enough and told him that some good things had come from them but when he asked me what all I could think of was Republic Commando. Anything else good come from them?

Good actors like Ewan Mcgregor got exposure.
John Williams got to write some more awesome music.
Some people liked them.
Darth Vader got some more character development.
Battlefront.

We all got a masterclass in how not to make pequals.

Seriously, the entire thing undermines Vader as a character.

'I had a dream that my wife would die so now I need to stop that from happening and it turns out the senator is a Sith and he says that he can stop Padme from dying even though the Sith are renowned for being deceitful but I drop all my Jedi ideology to believe him because he probably isn't lying but it involves me having to kill the young padawans which is totally evil but it isn't because Sidious says it isn't'

Bloody terrible.

We got those Red Letter Media reviews, which were not only highly entertaining but actually pretty informative on film making in general.

Also Star Wars: Episode I: Racer, one of the best racing games ever made.

The prequels also aren't anywhere near as bad as most people remember them, and Episodes I and III are actually pretty good movies. They weren't as good as the original trilogy, but that wasn't the real problem. The real problem is Lucas hyped the crap out of them after waiting almost twenty years between the release of Jedi and Phantom, and he couldn't deliver. Nobody could deliver on those expectations.

The best love story ever told.....

The tale of how one of the most famous couples in the Star Wars universe started out.....

A tale of love that transcends mere emotion.....

A couple that stayed together through thick and thin for many years even though they argued.....

The tale of R2D2 and C3PO.

I preferred their wrestling days.


They weren't very good.

A good John Williams score and some funny parody and critique.

That's about it...

No, wait, not quite true. Someone else mentioning it reminded me, the Podracer N64 game was pretty good as well.

But that's it. Seriously.

Actually, I'm glad you aren't.

Now I can talk about how awesome the prequels are.

I think the best character is Jar Jar, and midichlorians totally make sense.

You know everything that happens is actually all Jar Jar's fault?

Is it because he's such a deep and meaningful character?

I think it is.

Nah but seriously, he's the one that proposes giving Chancellor Palpatine more emergency powers and we all know how that turned out.

I thought that was an oversight on the fans' end and it was merely superfluous logic. I still hate him though. The only good thing he did was inspire the jakovasaurs in south park.

OT: Windu has the only purple lightsaber in the entire universe, therefore good.

We should just blame him anyway for being such a terrible character. Also Vegeta needs more screaming, he's really quiet.
