ABOMINATION!
WE DO NOT SPEAK OF JAR JAR BINKS.
Seriously though, the prequels were annoying. The only part I liked was the last 20 minutes of Episode III.
They destroyed the image of Lord Vader. Turned him into an angsty teen. He was supposed to be the epitome of a calm and collected badarse Sith, not a male Snooki who continually throws hissy fits and murders younglings just because Sidious willed it.
Anakin was called a good friend in a New Hope, but in the prequels he shows no other emotion than frustration and constantly lashes out at anyone and everyone like a 15 year old girl.
The jedi are portrayed as a bunch of useless blokes other than a few exceptions. The jedi image we knew from the first three movies was awesome. They were something akin to monks; knowledgeable, accepting, graceful, in harmony with the force and extremely powerful. Then Lucas went and turned them into fodder front line soldiers and explained their power levels with midichlorians. Really? Midichlorians?!
That means that with a simple blood transfusion anyone could gain extreme power.
Disregarding that, the jedi who are oh so good at sensing a disturbance in the force in the original series couldn't forsee a coup overthrowing the whole f*cking republic. Anyone with political insight or common sense should have been able to do that.
Cute little Ani didn't have a father! He was concieved by the force?! Come on!
Additionally, Ani-kun decided to become an arsehole and f*ck with the galaxy because of a dream he had, which is a totally retarded reason.
Anyways...
I'm not completely against the prequels, I just find them unsatisfactory when compared with IV-V-VI. They piss all over some very important concepts that were formed by the originals and the books. They seem too forced, the plots and storylines seem too shallow and the excessive use of CGI actually annoyed me.
The only good things that came out of them were Darth Maul, the introduction of the Zabrak race on screen, the Obi Wan vs Anakin final fight scene and the ending, the birth of Vader.
