I actually like the prequal series as much as the classic. I was raised on the classic but I grew to love the prequal trilogy. Granted, I still cring when I watch the Anakin-Padme scenes in AotC but I think it balances out with the good parts of the series. And I always thought the Matrix was pointless altogether. I couldn't see why killing civilians who had been taken over by computer programs could help anyone get free. Just stay in the computer program, it's a whole lot better then your world actually is, I say. So I'll have to say the Wachowski brothers.
