You are welcome to your opinion but it is you that is incorrect. The prequels did have good tight stories. The only reason why ppl did not like them is because they were different.
Difference is a GOOD thing.
Okay... let's forget about silly character development and how most of the elements don't fit in with even the original trilogy, let alone the Expanded Universe.
Just the plot then: (Spoilers, obviously)
In the first movie, an out-of-the-way planet was being bloackaded by an army of robots for no stated reason. Right after the movie started, the leaders of said robot army decided to invade instead of blockade, also for no real reason.
In the later movies... the same group involved in a single (just one planet, that was a big reason for the Republic to not get involved) planetary dispute suddenly takes on the entire galactic government... for no stated reson beyond "they were tricked by the destined Emperor of the Empire."
Instead of an interesting plot hook, the Clone War was just... a war in which clones were used as soldiers.
I mean, shouldn't we be calling the 4th English Crusade: "Child War"... or any of our recent wars "The Ongoing Coed War"?
The sepratists had a "super secret" ultimate weapon that they never once tried to build despite being well-funded; for no apparent reason.

All those points were about were really about the 1st and 2nd movie. The third movie's plot was... passable. However, it was tied down by the movies before them, including the original trilogy. That movie couldn't go anywhere or do anything except suck and die. To make up for a passable story, they instead endeavored to make the characterization the wrost of all three movies.
That's right, I'm saying that the prequel trilogy was bad on purpose.
Oh, and don't tell us why we don't like something; different, indeed. That's why we're all so happy about the rererererererelease of the trilogies for 3D, right, because there's nearly nothing different?
