Its because George Lucas knew that inorder to keep the series rolling he had to attract the kids of the fans the films already had. In that measure he succeded, (looking at you Jar-Jar) the new films failed because they bring nothing new to the table and repeat the same formula from the original trilogy with all the bland “written by committie” the Hollywoo has been making as of late.
The movies are decebt, but the world building/games/tv shows that got spun off from it we’re more than worth it in my opinion.
I think people remember the prequels so fondly because it was a time when star wars felt big and was expanding. The issue with the Sequels is that it actually shrunk the galaxy.
You can tell everyone in this thread is younger than me by the amount of prequel love.
