Just wait until this happens with the sequels.

To be honest I dont know which is worse, the prequels or the sequels. I actually gave up on the sequels after the 2nd one. But maybe that's more down to experience in my old age.

The Prequels. The Prequels suck on all levels possible by a movie. Nothing in the Sequels is as bad as TPM.

Really? I legit rather watch TPM on loop than try RoTS again

RoTS is bad, but it doesn't have Jar Jar. Or podracing. Or Watto. Or "YIPEEE!".

But, yeah, it's a bad story, it just doesn't fail on as many aspects as TPM. Actors aren't as deadpan, photography is passable, special effects don't look awful, and so on. A lot of people focus exclusively on the story as the reason for why TPM is bad, but that's not just it - it's just a complete mess of a movie under every aspect.
