The prequel hate was mostly people upset at the direction Lucas took his own story. The sequels on the other hand might as well belong to an alternate universe.
FWIW George agrees, he also wanted someone else in the directors chair. He asked a number of different directors including Steven Spielberg but none of them felt they could take on the story.
All 3 prequels are in the list. I wasn’t expecting that. Maybe “Revenge of the Sith,” but not all three of them.
I thought “The Force Awakens” might have made it to the top 10.

I think the prequel stories had great potential. The execution of it - primarily, the directing - wasn’t great.
I like them, but I think George needed different people around him behind the scenes and in the director’s chair
Also Lucas really wanted to pioneer better CGI. So he bit off a lot more than any one director could chew.
Exactly. I think if he had focused on the tech directing and had someone else direct the actors, they would have been much better.
If Disney had just followed his ideas for the sequel trilogy, I’m sure the movies would have been better.
I know that Favreau and Filoni are using some of those ideas, so I’m kinda excited to see where it goes from here.
