That's one great way of looking at the prequels. Other Star Wars fans responding to the post have given more detailed responses, praising Lucas' prequel movies for their costume design, their intricate sets, and for the presence of fan-favorite characters like Darth Maul, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and of course, Anakin Skywalker who would eventually become Darth Vader.
There are a lot of different reasons to love the prequel films – Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, Star Wars: Attack of the Clones, and of course, Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith.
Tudyk wasn't wrong when he said that he was glad that the prequels where there because they lead to Rogue One. The actor is set to reprise his role as K-2SO in Lucasfilm's upcoming Cassian Andor spinoff series set for release on Disney+.
The Skywalker saga is available for streaming on Disney+.
