Are you glad the Star Wars prequels were even made?

[QUOTE="jdavis, post: 1306161, member: 8704"] You do realize he's made a lot more than the Star Wars movies don't you..... You do realize he's one of the most sucessful people in the film industy ever don't you. I mean come on I don't even care for the prequel movies myself but come on you got to give him a little credit here (the storylines for the Indiana Jones movies were his too, he's not a moron). It's not some grand design here, you have completly missed the obvious plot of the movies. whether the next movie is good or not remains to be seen but I can garantee it will be revealed that Palpatine was behind it all (I know this because I have seen freaking Star Wars, in the end of the next movie the bad guys win, oops maybe I should of put that in spoiler tags). I'm not giving Lucas too much credit I'm telling what the plot was, Lucas blew it with his silly little diner scenes and his horrible love story dialog and his love for clumsy digital characters. If you don't like the plot that's fine but it still is the plot of the movie. This isn't my interpretation of it, it's the plot of the movie, it was all set up by Palpatine, it's the plot of both movies. Yes it's not perfect but it is the storyline, I'm just explaining it.
