In the OT good and evil is clearly defined, Rebels=good and Empire=bad. However in
the prequels Lucas created many grey areas in which there is no absolute good or evil, the OT had so much simplicity.
That sounds rather interesting alot more interesting than what Lucas came up with. Lucas should have focused less on the politcal aspects. He wants to call the SW Saga Anakin's story but we know alot more about Star Wars politics than about Anakin Skywalker. Lucas pretty much messed up everything from the very start by the weak storyline in TPM, making Anakin a child and catering the movie to only children didn't help matters either.
I don't call that being seduced, its better to say he was tricked into joining the darkside by a
vague promised, but it makes him look like an idiot when its clear that Palpatine was lying
but he still complies with Palpatine's order all because he is afraid of being alone and has
this unwholesome obsession with Padme.
True. But this is a person who was angry at the Jedi council for not appointing him
the rank of Jedi Master, if he is oblivious to the mere fact that he is being manipulated by a Sith Lord then the Jedi were right in not appointing him, because his mental capacity appears to be limited in that regards.
