Yeah but the prequels still beat almost any movie ever made at the box office. Regardless if people on the internet were annoyed that Jar Jar wasn't funny.

The Prequels were not the first movies on anybody's favorites list. For example, in 2002,
Attack of the Clones--with a built in franchise--still fell short of
Spider-Man's performance. One can argue that
Spider-Man was new, but the negative opinion of
The Phantom Menace set
Attack up to recieve less than enthusiastic attention compared to Raimi's comic adaptation.
