I'm not a huge fan of the Star Wars series but I enjoy the films. I knew that making a sequel/prequel to a 20 year old trilogy would not live up to expectations. So when I went to see The Phantom Menace & Attack Of The Clones I went into the theater expecting nothing more than the backstory of how Anakin Skywalker became Darth Vader. I knew the new films would be disappointing if I expected the impossible (to make a good sequel to a hit movie) so I went in with no expectations. As a result, I enjoyed the films and had no problems. It's silly to expect a sequel 20 years after the first film was made to be as good or better than the original. Just go to the theater expecting a science fiction story that explains how Anakin became evil and you'll be satisfied. That's my 2 cents.
