re: TLJ making the prequels better?

Agree, but it's easier to accept when you look at how each of the three secondary villains represent various traits that will come to define Vader.

Maul: Pure, raw anger
Dooku: fallen Jedi, who wants to rule the galaxy through order
Grievous: more machine than man

Also, when you think about it, the OT had a different primary antagonist for each movie, the same as the PT
IV - Tarkin
V - Vader
VI - Emperor
