Yeah, I do kind of the same thing.

I've noticed that over the years I've softened a bit on the Prequel Troilogy, while the first two are a bit of a mess, I find I can enjoy the lore and story behind some of the clumsiness. I mean as much as the story is about the fall of Anakin, its more about the end of a whole system of government and the rise of authoritarianism, plus Ian playing Palpatine is so good, and I do really like ROTS.

The Clone Wars series really reflects this as well. This first season is fairly kid friendly, but it slides into darkness as it goes along. By the time you get to season 5, you can really see why the Republic had to die and why the Jedi had to be pretty much destroyed.

Season 2 was great because it was the bounty hunter season, and you got to see a lot of Cad Bane who was awesome.
