Yeah, the newer trilogy kind of sucked but honestly I thought I and III were really good. Not as good as IV, V and VI of course but still excellent nontheless. However... II was a complete piece of shit. I hated it, even as a kid.

I didn't mind 2, but it was the weakest of the three.  Kind've expected though as it was easy to see it was pretty much going to be a "filler."  1 was kind've meh, needed more maul.  3 was pretty good.

They got nothing on 4, 5, and 6.

What should also be on this list:

Call of Duty World at War
Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2
Call of Duty Black Ops
Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3
World of Warcraft: Catacalysm
World of Warcraft: WoTLK

There's more but I'm lazy.

The first one would have been good if there was more Darth Maul, no kid (YIPPIE!) Anakin, no Jar Jar Binks, no stupid mistakes (Such as an invasion force on a city landing on the other side of the planet), NO Politics and more emotion/better acting from characters.

3 would have been good, but it just made so many contradictions such as Mace Windu saying, "We must hurry!" after hearing about Palpatine being a Sith and walking slowly.
Also, better actors for the love scenes.

In general the prequel series would have been much better with:
  • No Politics
  • The lightsaber fights to be a LOT less choreographed, I expected Obi Wan to lash out at Maul when he killed Qwi Gon, but nooo! He carries on with a extremely choreographed sword fight.
  • No annoying characters. Kids... Jar Jar Binks...
  • Less lightsabers. They seemed less cool when you see them every 5 seconds
  • More character developement/better characters. I felt for Luke after 20 minutes when his uncle and aunt died. I couldn't care less for any characters throughout the three prequels
  • No contradictions with the originals. Make sure that the story holes make sense. No! The force isn't fucking bacteria!

Keep in mind the entire thing was written from start to end. I agree though, the lightsaber fights were really lame. However, in Episode III they were really good and intense.

Not true. George Lucas kept changing his mind as to sequels and prequels. He began writing the Phantom Menace in 1994. Also, it wasn't until half way through writing Empire that he thought Vader and Anakin's background through, and made them the same character. Nevertheless, many contradictions were made. In A new Hope, Obi Wan said that Anakin was a good friend, however in the prequels he always expresses distaste and annoyance towards Anakin, and vice versa.

Also, the Emperor saw Lightsabers as mere toys, as he was more an inquisitor that used the force more to his advantage. Yet he had one in the prequels.
Same with Yoda, he thought use of the force demonstrated more power than physical endurance, yet he was flipping around with a mini saber in the prequels.

Despite Episode III being the least bad of the Prequels, it did have some niggling annoyances in it. Such as more emotionless dialogue, Mace Windu saying "We must hurry" after finding out that Palpatine is a sith lord, and walking slowly to Palpatine's location. The senate are also idiots, believing a guy with a monster face who now wear's dark Sith robes.
And the most annoying part of the film, Darth Vader saying "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" at the end. -.-

I could go on for ages about Star Wars :P

God, what the fuck. I read that he wrote them start to finish. Also, I saw the script for Episode III when I was like 7, my dad got a hold of it somehow. I don't know. I didn't really pay attention to the annoyances.

That's probably because you were 7. Most children don't have the concept of critical thinking yet.
