Arguably better because you can say it isn't canon

Honestly, the prequels were not that bad. They were dumb and mindless, but had a lot of fun moments. They also birthed the excellent clone wars cartoon.

This is my stance until I see the movie myself. AotC is on the absolute bottom of the totem pole for me.

The prequels are weird, man

I went back and watched them in preparation for this shitshow, and yes Jar Jar is dumb and kid Anakin sucks, but the rest of TPM isn't bad. And AotC, Anakin and Padme romance is legitimately terrible but the rest of the movie is honestly pretty good

It sounds like a disaster, but there's still the prequels, and as I'm not dead from the neck up I doubt that a Star Wars movie will ever be worse than the prequels.

So either Rotten Tomatoes is too inconsistent to be reliable or the checks didn't clear this time, take your pick

It was "over" back in 2005, they'll think of something.

I at least made it through AotC in one sitting.

It took me like 8 tries before I actually made it through a full viewing of TLJ. If this is worse then TLJ then it for sure takes the title.

What are you trying to say? Because the idea that you either have to always agree or disagree with critics is weird.

Of course people that thought TLJ was bad would disagree and question reviews that liked it, and later on would agree with reviews that didnt like a movie they also didnt like. That's normal human behavior. Despite what you think people are not Star Wars droids that run on black and white logic.

Did anyone expect anything good though, really?

Episode 7 was trash with literally no room for meaningful character or plot development for three movies. All the characters were pretty much flat and set in stone from the beginning except for Kylo Ren and Finn. It acted like the Empire had never even been destroyed to begin with which was just weird since there's such a huge victory celebration at the end of 6.

And the fact that they (early episode 9 spoilers) brought the emperor back which I'm pretty sure would be physically impossible considering what happened to him at the end of 6 kind of demonstrates how creatively bankrupt they are.

Not to mention JJ Abrams has always been a massive hack.
