   Real fans have no problem with the Prequel Trilogy. Those moves   
   (mostly) fit with what was in the Original Trilogy without just lazily   
   copying everything.   
      
   The whiney fans complain about the Prequel Trilogy basically because   
   they don't like Jar Jar. They forget that these movies are aimed at   
   kids (older kids at least), not adults. Jar Jar is no different to the   
   Ewoks or C-3PO's comedy antics in the Original Trilogy. Most saw the   
   original movies when they were kids and for some idiotic reason believe   
   the Prequels should have grown up like they supposedly did.
