Say Something Good about the Prequels
We complain about these things all the time, but there are some beautiful moments.
The light saber duel (truel? triol?) with Darth Maul may be the high point of the entire six-movie series, for example. The music, fight choreography, and drama are all fantastic. The bits where the force field cuts Obi Wan off from the other fighters is brilliant.
The other scene that comes to mind is when Anakin wipes out the Jedi school. Absolutely chilling, the child's voice and then just the shot of Anakin turning on his light saber. Wow!
Now, see how many good things you can say.
