They were far from considered huge successes. Some fans raved about it when it came out, that's true, but that could be a consequence of the hype of seeing another Star Wars movie after all those years. But a lot of fans bashed that movie back then. Reviews were very lackluster. This is a totally different case, as reviewers and fans alike are raving about it, and it's rare to see a lot of negativity (as opossed to TPM) among fandom. I didn't see it yet, but I'm on a lot of film forums and I've only see a lot of praise.
EDIT: By the way, I've enjoyed Episode III a lot. More than RotJ, so I'm not actually a prequel hater.
