You know, for the longest time, I've always heard the 'George has lost his touch' excuse, and only fairly recently, around the time of Indiana Jones 4, have people started pointing out that the original trilogy was a group effort. George took the fame and kept the rights, not only for the product, but for all the toys, spinoffs, books, and everything else he could make money off of. Without the same crew behind the prequels, the quakity changed, but George's mastery over product and advertisment ensured its growth to what it is today.
As for the movie bob retrospect. He should realise that sequels/prequels being compared to their predicesors is a perfectly reasonable way to review them. They are sequels. They're a continuation of the original story and if it fails to meet the standards and expectations set up by the original, it makes sense to take off points.
