The prequels always were and always will be an extremely good story poorly told, reading about what happens on the prequels is better than the prequels themselves.

I'm not saying that in spite of the prequels, I really like them, part of my favorite bits of the series comes from them.

It's been years, people forgot why to hate them. Of course, they are very flawed. But they tell an entertaining story and have plenty of entertaining moments.
The question now is, will the sequels enjoy this redemption? Or are they doomed?
