Actually Arrow's a bad example, since they use their flashbacks in a 'concurrent revelation' sort of way.
A better example would be again X-Men First Class. Or Star Trek Enterprise. Gotham. Smallville. That Underworld prequel. So on and so forth. Are you against prequel stories?
Also, the Star Wars prequel trilogy had WAY more problems than us knowing Anakin grows up to be a dick.
