Predators Suck! Why do people like Predator movies?

Anyways, the Predator series is no match for the original trilogy, but both the first and new Predator movies easily wipe the floor with the prequel trilogy.
Lets make a totem pole of quality:
The original trilogy had excellent characters and narrative, as well as intense action that invested the viewer. This would place them at the top of the totem pole.
Predator and Predators were just dumb, fun action. While it doesn't offer as fulfilling an experience, they were still worth the money you paid to watch them giving them this second spot on the totem pole.
The Prequel trilogy had neither a well written narrative, nor good action. They were pretty, but they had lots of quirks and felt very sterile and mass produced. They are occasionally hilarious to watch and find horrible inconsistencies, bad writing, and horrendous design decisions which gives them some credit.
The other Predator movies would be down here on this totem pole, because they weren't even funny from a "so bad it's hilarious" perspective like the prequel trilogy. They were just bad.

Hey NiGHTSJoke I'm gonna make you an utter joke on the gamefaqs star wars board for saying that.
The Prequel trilogy was great I give it 10/10.

Also, there are only five movies in the history of forever that deserve a perfect ten:
Vertigo
Citizen Kane
It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad Mad Mad World
Big Trouble in Little China
aaaaaaaaaaaand Hot Fuzz.

Like Godzilla Final Wars, Blues Brothers, and Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. All of which are great movies, but none of which are perfect movies.

And if you're referring to me. I like Star Wars, I dislike stuff that sucks.
I like the original trilogy, and also the vast majority of material involving the Old Republic and Thrawn. Also, I did enjoy the animated Clone Wars miniseries and I like the Battlefront and SNES games.
However, I do not like all of the poorly constructed crap involved in the prequel trilogy. Bland characters, nonsense plots, poor writing, even poorer narrative, poor special effects (from a design standpoint), and holes in logic by the characters makes for a poor story and unfulfilling experience.
In case you weren't aware, even George Lucas himself thinks the entire ending sequence of Episode 1 is a mess, I just personally am much more critical. That entire movie is an utter mess, the characters have no motivation, and nothing anyone does has any sensible reason behind it. The other two are also pretty bad, and it's still hard to believe they came from the same director as the original trilogy.
However, I never said Star Wars was uncool, or even implied it. I still love the original trilogy, and would even tell, nay, insist for anyone that hasn't seen it and was put off by the prequel trilogy to check it out anyways.

He just proved that three of those six movies are "utter jokes". I don't care for clone wars.
