The Phantom Menace had a good trailer because it played on the hype of a new Star Wars film after so long and it didn't highlight any of the idiotic stuff like Jar Jar. Of course then the final movie did have a lot of annoying kid appeal with young Anakin and Jar Jar. To add insult to injury Darth Maul, the face of advertising for the movie, was only there for like 10 minutes before he got cut in half. The only good stuff in TPM was either hardly there or dies before the credits roll which cuts them out of future films (Liam Neeson as Qui Gon Jinn and Darth Maul). I've said it before but there was honestly NO reason to have a character like Jar Jar to bring in kid appeal since Star Wars was already hugely popular with everyone who saw the originals and since most of them were parents when TPM came out they would've taken their kids to see it anyway. I was young when TPM came out and I sure as hell didn't need a cartoony frog/duck man to draw me in to see it.

Also, like I've said before if The Force Awakens turns out to be not-so-good then the two 'J's in J.J. Abrams name will forever more stand for Jar Jar.
