The third one was terrible because it was boring and needlessly dark.

Star Wars is not a space opera, it's an adventure serial that is set in a universe with magic.

Also, if you cut the entire General Grievous subplot from the story, nothing significant would have changed at all. He's just a random, totally pointless villain who was in the universe for like an hour then died. Why would you do that?

Why couldn't Darth Maul or even fucking Dooku have just been the bad guy since the first one? That way when the villain loses we care about it because we know who the fuck they are.
