Best Prequels? (beehaw.org)

I'm shooting a movie currently and after a conversation with my director we realized that we couldn't think of a single prequel that we liked. However, we both agreed that there has to be at least one.

What do you think? Are there any good prequels?

The first thing that came to mind, after the fact, was The House of the Dragon the Game of Thrones prequel.

Call me crazy, but I really like the Star Wars prequels.

You're crazy!

No one will ever argue that they're stellar examples of quality filmmaking, but I feel like they've aged very well and get better when you consider the period of the franchise they opened up to so many other pieces of media that genuinely are brilliant.

And the meme value is through the fucking roof.

I love them, but, I think thats mostly up to the few actors that made it work!

the lines are super clunky, but oby, palpy, dooky just works, and are a blast to watch.
