I agree, and i think it's more than just nostaliga. All the additional media/shows added so much extra context, which makes the movies seem better then they actually are, because it tends to get blended together in people's minds growing up.

Characters like Anakin or Darth Maul, who are wrtten absolutely terribly in the movies are much more liked because of shows like Clone Wars, which influenced the way people remember the movies additionally to the nostalgia.

Yeah that's a great point. Genndy Tartakovsky's Clone Wars did an amazing job expanding and legitimizing the plots and characters introduced in the prequels.
