Arguably, the biggest flaw of the prequels is the way they tried to connect everything to the original series. While they are supposed to lead into into the story of the originals, they constantly make connections that simply aren't believable. One example is how Anakin Skywalker builds C-3PO, which just makes no sense, another is how Chewbacca fights alongside Yoda during the Clone Wars, and another is how all the Republic ships look like ships from the original series. There are many other examples in the prequels and they all add together to make the Star Wars universe seem extremely small. If the prequels had spent as much time trying to be their own movies instead of referencing the previous movies, they probably would not have been quite as poorly received as they have been.

I love movies, literature, history, music and the NBA. I love all things nerdy including but not limited to Star Wars, Star Trek, Lord of the Rings, and Firefly. My artistic idols are Dylan, Dostoevsky, and Malick and my goal in life is to become like Bernard Black from Black Books. When I die, I hope to turn into the space baby from 2001: A Space Odyssey.
