Saw the prequel trilogy last weekend for the first time
TPC hate is...exaggerated
It was pretty much boring the whole way, it has Jar Jar, felt too childish and it has some weird pacing issues (We saw the intro, Obi Wan boarded a ship, they got ambushed, they killed them all, they landed in a planet, they met Jar Jar, they got into the underwater city, they faced giant water beasts, they got into a city and met the queen)

But it wasn't offensively bad
The visual were astounding even by today standards, not to mentioned 20? years ago
The fight against Darth Maul was good and I guess some people might enjoy the racing too

The climactic scene where Ani blows up the space station by pure dumb luckwas dumb

OK yeah this I can't defend I wanted to punch the screen by how idiotic it was. No way to defend it I have no idea who thought it was a good idea

But you want a bad movie? try Return of the Jedi
That was such a horrible boring fucking piece of shit, I wanted to stop watching during the middle and not watch the other Star Wars because it was one of the worst movies I have ever seen (no it isn't Assassin's Creed levels of bad but it was close)
This is the trilogy finale, they had an established universe already, an interesting main story, and they wasted 80% of the movie on filler
40 minutes to rescue Han Solo? really? then 40 more minutes of Ewoks? they are far worse than Jar Jar oh my god kill them with fire
They played such a major role in the film and were able to defeat the storm troopers so easily how can I take them seriously? the Empire fucking sucks

Han Solo character was botched here- no longer a "player" but rather a boring, plain character that is envious of everyone
The "Leia is Luke sister" proved to be a pointless plot twist, it might have some importance in the lore expanded by other media (like books or I don't know) but in the movie itself it was so pointless

But the worst offender? the WORST?
For 30 years I didn't see Star Wars. I only saw Episode VII two years ago and Rogue One, but I knew about Darth Vader
He is one of the most popular movie-originated characters ever created, it's impossible to not hear about Darth Vader
He is hyped, he is liked, he is feared. I expected him to be some kind of "ultimate villain" and he kicked ass in the ending of Rogue One so I looked forward to seeing him in the next few movies
He was pretty whatever in IV and V, and it was ok.
But I did not expect the one I thought would be "the ultimate villain" to be a fucking pathetic wimp and go all "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" with lame son-issues "I want to see your face" COME ON you poor piss fuck
