I am familiar with a lot of stuff from the prequels even though I haven't sat down and watched them.

 

Don’t feel bad, you’re not alone.  I’ve never sat down and watched revenge of the Sith.

I put off watching this for a long while.  For some reason I got a free version on Vudu or YouTube from Sony, so I finally relented and watched it.  I wasn't as terrible as I had heard, but it wasn't good either.  I really only liked Kristen Wiig's character in this, everyone else was just turned up too much.  I also liked the glowing cartoony look of the ghosts.  There were some funny parts here and there, but it was mostly too silly for it's own good.  There is no way this will ever be as fondly remembered as the originals, and that so many people just passed on it for being a "nostalgia cash in" (or whatever) were totally justified.

Never seen and have no real interest. If it's on one day and I'm bored maybe I'll watch but I have no desire to go out of my way.
