The funny thing is that the prequels are turning out to have aged fairly well. They're still fairly flawed but there's a lot of good stuff [set up](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QppINK042N8) [in those](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44H0MVjBDtM) [movies.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KSbwAJT8RE) And at least the prequels didn't go out of their way to say that the past of the original trilogy should die %coughcoughnewtrilogycoughcough%.

Turns out, having a singular vision at the helm and some idea where the hell your story is actually supposed to be going helps a lot.
As opposed to the new trilogy which is just two talentless hacks trying to undo each others' damage.
