Everything Wrong With the ENTIRE Star Wars Prequels 

Not to mention people loved Clone Wars so much that the bad scenes of the prequels are now only a minority of what "prequel era" means. This gives people the occasion to focus on the few things where the movies actually excel: the combat scenes.

Nah it’s not really that, like to an extent that’s the case, but really it was the fact that the kids who grew up with the prequels grew up and had the internet to show their love for it (via memes and other mediums)

Either that or our mutual hatred for the sequels made us appreciate the prequels even more

They're still garbage, as garbage as the sequel trilogy.

It also helps that the prequel trilogy is brilliant compared to the sequel trilogy!

56:14 *Due to its profuseness CinemaSins hates love scenes, the sight of love scenes sickens CinemaSins to such a degree it's sinned or skip it.* 56:46 *By saying "...good is a point of view..." Palpatine is right, just like beauty is (only) in the eye(s) of the beholder(s) therefore Anakin is easily manipulated because he cannot say Palpatine words are incorrect.*

I guess he didn't yet have that "particular set of skills"

@@jsprite123 Ah yes, a man of culture

Dude good Sin, how did we all miss that.

He used to practice his lightsaber skills with a bat back in ireland

skipping out on errands is a path to the dark side I guess

being unable to control your emotions so much that you might go completely crazy is a Skywalker trait as well. But they are also super fcking strong with the force so its a trade off i guess

He does it now for other movies where the character over-dramatically says no, and God, I look forward to it every time now.

bingo. honestly, there ARE great qualities in the prequels....... shame other parts of the film's construction failed them

But Anakin's behavior when they meet again is super creepy. Hayden Christiansen's acting is terrible AND the part is badly written.

A true masterpiece

The intro to episode 3 with the drums banging as the Jedi starfighters fly by into that huge battle over corescant still gives me goosebumps.

attack of the clones is realy bad though. phantom menace and revenge of the sith i like despite all their flaws, but i jsut don't feel it's worth watching anakin and padmes "lovestory" and all the other bullshit just for that admittedly awesome arena scene

May be an unpopular opinion, but I really like the whole political aspect of the prequel trilogy.

Well... the Jedi Order in the very last days of its waning prime, at least. 200 years before the Prequels was it's real prime. Before the extremely long life of Yoda had, unfortunately, changed the Order in ways that he saw happening, but wasn't able to stop in time before the Sith latched onto that weakness. An unfortunate spreading of hero worship that had taken hold, and the Jedi who were utterly incapable of following the Force as Yoda naturally could had, enmasse, decided to actually make _rules_ for the Order that said that all Jedi had to try and act like Yoda. Banning things such as having children, Jedi being allowed to marry, trying to bury all emotion... You know - all the ways they'd failed Anakin, and were all obviously failing themselves. _(Didn't help that Yoda himself had become quite a bit rigid in his later years, and as such just assumed that once he was gone the Order would sort itself back out. Ontop of failing Anakin it also created other problems such as Darth Kryat - an emporer who ruled far longer than Palpatine, etc.)_ However... right? As much hate as these caught from shifting Star Wars away from a seemingly magical, mystical sort of story with some sci-fi tossed in... the novels had LONG ago already done that. Anyone who'd read them seems to have quite enjoyed the Prequels. Except, maybe, Jar Jar.

What?!

They knew perfectly well that it would be the last place Vader would ever think to look.

"Vader will never set foot on Tatooine, out of fear of awakening Anakin."

But that also kind of makes him less smart, especially now with the awful Kenobi series.

Also let's not forget how big planets are

Vader didn't go down to the surface when the empire was there.

This was the exact comment I was looking for! Thank you Plot Hole Detective!

In universe there's another explanation as well. The vast majority of the ship doesn't have any living being in it. The crew is basically just on the bridge, so they only have air in where ever the Neimoidians are. But that also just leads into "why not just expel the air and let the Jedi suffocate?"

Hey you could be on to something, but what about if zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

LOL!! This reminded me of way back in 2001 when I played "Star Wars: Obi Wan" for the Xbox. My cousin, another friend and I, already could barely play the game without busting out laughing, cause during the game, you're following QuiGon and QuiGon and ObiWan's leg movements (while running), looked like they were tryin' to run with corn-cobs up their butts. Of course the weed didn't help matters any. But what actually ruined us for good that day was, I was playing and had made it to that room where the gas is going to be released. In the movie when the gas comes out of the vents, QuiGon simply says "Dioxin!!" and then he and ObiWan hold their breath. In the game when the gas is released QuiGon calmly says the word, "Dioxin!!" but right after, screams out the word, "gas" like a pissed off drunk person with a speech impediment. It sounded like, "GAAHH YYYYUSSSSS!!". {0.o} I dropped the controller on the floor and we laughed I know for a half hour till our sides friggin' hurt. 😂 🤣 💀

all true but you seem worryingly keen to start this project, who are you planning to gas? did producer guy put you up to this?

Exactly. At least there was an attempt to build the world, even if the writing is flawed, at least they tried! It wasnt just a soft reboot like EP7.

I would love to know how these turned out in the parallel universe where Lucas actually sought edits and criticism for the scripts before handing them over. I always got the impression he wasn't _that_ bothered about the Star Wars Universe he'd created - he was a bit of a hack, and it was the vehicle universe for those films he wanted to make that time, rather than a place he fell asleep thinking about. There were probably hundreds of scriptwriters who were more invested in the details than he was, and with a keener sense of what actually need go into a film.

the prequels still suck. The Jedi are just some boring, stupid cultists who fail at everything

It seems to come down to an age divide. If you were a boy in elementary school when Episode 1 released, you probably barely understood it and loved it. Further the movies aged with you, because by the time you were a preteen, so was your hero Anakin! However if you were old enough to be a Star wars fan from before Episode 1 and to understand the movie, you thought it was hot garbage.

​@@joew8438 Bold move to basically say "If you liked the prequels, you were just dumb and didn't understand it." Quite frankly, George Lucas had said Star Wars was successful because it was made for kids, not adults. The prequels were right where they needed to be, but the demographic was growing up. it has nothing to do with a more sophisticated understanding, you just weren't the primary target audience anymore.

Don't forget Natalie Portman and Samuel L Jackson.

And Hayden Christensen too

@@jasonmonks8423 Are you kidding? His acting was AWFUL. It might have been the worst part of these movies and that INCLUDES Jar Jar!

He was inspired to play in Star Wars by his uncle who played wedge Antilles in episode 4.

well most people dont think about it and like to know how things came to be, and they covered almost everything and didnt really have any holes which is hard as hell to do

so many things had to happen for your birth to make sense, you don't hear me complaining this is a joke btw

If only you and I could have convinced the world to just not watch them. I regret it, because of these and the movie prequel to The Thing, I don't watch prequels anymore. I'd just rather NOT know. My imagination of the "clone wars" as a little boy, vaguely hinted at by Obiwan was FAR deeper and richer than how GL and his teams portrayed it. What a let down. They're all boba fett clones except each has brain damage or implants to follow any order, no matter how dumb. How boring. It's just like other reviews, I kept hoping they'd get better but it only got worse except for Sith not having any kids. That's the best part of that whole movie; no kids. Then the end. That part really makes zero sense. Darth goes Nooooooo! (to me there are no other Darths - the prequels and NuMovies are all fanfic and I don't read comics or books about star wars either so they don't count in the fun original tale called star wars) and Emperor goes "it seems in your anger you killed her" or something like that. In the whole time from Luke and Leia being born, that WHOLE time, old Darth never went to check and see if it was true or not? Never asked one question? Never tried to find Obiwan (which would lead him to finding Luke) or Yoda? He's supposed to be incredibly intelligent besides a great pilot ("spinning is a good trick! ugh.) and they really want all of us to believe Vadar just said and thought: "Ok boss. Whatever you say." and then for at least 16-18yrs just does nothing? That part in the 3rd og movie shows he redeemed himself by not letting bossman kill his own son. But based off history if he did nothing for 16yrs, why would he even care? He was going to torture and kill Leia but she escaped with Lukes help just in time. He should have been laughing when Emperor was zapping Luke, pulling his mask off only to spit on his corpse when finished. According to new trilogies, that's how it should have gone down.

@@FBCGodfather - You haven't seen Star Wars enough times.

Well Palpatine had Anakin kill Dooku to make room for Anakin to become his apprentice and to slaughter the Separatist council to tie up loose ends and to push Anakin further to the dark side.

I have to disagree with you. Dooku was teetering on being evil before Qui-Gon died. Qui-Gons death is what pushed him over the edge. He went to search for the Sith lord only to discover that he was leader of the Senate. Dooku was full blown dark side after meeting Sidous.

@@joshuabowen6919 Actually, that isn't entirely clear. While we can say he was evil, Anakin's statement "From my perspective, the Jedi are evil!" might be part of it. Dooku did see the Republic as corrupt bureaucracy to the detriment of the people. It's unclear if he wanted outright power (the typical "evil" thing) or legitimately disliked the corrupt (can we say "evil"?) government. He basically led a secession/revolution movement. One could argue that finding out the Sith Lord was also leading the Senate - the thing you ALREADY thought was corrupt and evil - might rightly push someone over the edge into deciding the whole thing needed to be brought down. And lest we forget, Dooku tried making his own apprentices, meaning he had plans to take out Palpatine. Again, whether for power or to rid the galaxy of his evil is a question whose answer died with Dooku - who looked shocked and betrayed when Palpatine ordered Anakin to kill him.

@@joshuabowen6919 True but he did so because he saw the terrible state Republic was in. He was not fully evil during Episode II for sure. Having to battle his former master Yoda proved to him that there is no peaceful solution to the whole thing and that all out war to bring the Republic down was inevitable.

​@afonsoabreu5144 there was literally an entire core of people existing to hunt down jedi. Lots of Jedi existed still just in hiding

i think people misunderstand what balance in the force meant. the point is that the dark side is a perversion of the force, and inherently unbalances it. eradicating dark side practicioners is what brings balance, not making an equal number of jedi and sith. the force is not a ying yang

You know that. I know that. Some fans know that. But I think General Grievous is a great example of exactly what's wrong with the prequels. You shouldn't have to do research, watch 7 seasons of tv and read a bunch of books for fundamental aspects of a movie to make sense to you. It's ok to have deep lore, but you gotta keep it accessible and the prequels are just so bogged down with it.

@@LordPeddleby The man literally coughs, and is shown to have ORGANS in episode 3 when Obi-wan opens his chest; it's not expanded lore. it's called having EYES

@@finisterre2415 but none of that was shown in the Audio description!

Didn't they use that to explain how Yoda was able to hide on Dagobah? In the first Thrawn trilogy, Leia explains that he fought and destroyed a Dark Jedi there, which resulted in the dark side cave he sends Luke into in Empire... It also shields him from being detected. So again, the sin is Lucas only having so many ideas. 😁

Well first off the the sith temple also carried all lot of dark side artfacts.Those artifacts were probably dampening the jedi ability to sense the darkside.Also Dagobah is a darkside nexus which aligns more along with the darkside of the force.Allowing lightsiders like Yoda and Luke to hide their signature in the force.

don't you tell me that no one realize how close to 4 reefer that jedi temple look like???!!!! As soon as i saw it, i couldn't help but smile at what that 'means', somehow...

That is not balance. George Lucas explained it. Anakin brought balance to the force in episode 6 when he killed the emperor and wiped out the sith and only the jedi were left. The jedi are the balance of the force.

@@blue1133 enough of what he says is a sin is also not accurate by any means and can easily be explained by common sense. Such as sending Jedi in episode 1 it was clear the federation was afraid of Jedi and would have easily conceded to the republic if palps never interfered with their politics

Yeah I agree with the other replies, it is mostly for the sake of entertainment- it is not a valid criticism. It has a lot of inaccuracies, nitpicking, and a lot of just complete lies.

For example, he acted confused about the Queen of Naboo, even though it is clear in the movies what her role is. She is not the Queen of the republic, she isn't even an actual, "queen." She is more like an elected president, with a 4-year term. So, yeah.

if u read the books the 5 Force Priestess' predicted and had a hand in it. though never stated in film, SW fans knew. it was predestined for Anakin to be trained. nothing to do specifically with the droid control ship. though it helped. just like Qui-Gons force ghost voice. where do you think he was learning it from. the 5 force priestess'
