I just thought of positive thing the prequels gave us: a post trilogy career by Liam Neeson. To think we would've missed out on "Taken" if we didn;t suffer through TPM . . .
Hard to justify AOTC and ROTS. I can only defend so much! LOL Perhaps you should watch "Attack of the Phantom" by the Phantom Editor next time you're tempted to give AOTC another try.
