I really liked the stories of the original Star Wars. The storyline is awesome. THe stories in the new movies are cool too. About PM, it is kind of hard to make a good prequel when people already know what is going to happen later in the story. I think they did a good job. I think the movie would be just as great without a lot of special effects (not to say that the effects were bad either, they were pretty good and did add some spice to the movie). Star Wars is cool.
