I literally can't imagine what it was like seeing the first trilogy with no prior knowledge of it. I remember joking about this very topic with my dad who was 10 or 11 when Empire Strikes Back came out. He talked about how everyone's mind was blown when they found out about Vader being Luke's father yet to anyone born after these movies came out...its hard to even call it a plot twist because it's one of the most iconic/quotable/memeable moments in all of cinematic history. Like let's be honest, most of us under the age of like 50 already knew going into the first movie whether we had previously seen any other star wars movie or not, that Vader is Luke's father. It almost makes me envious in a way that people got to experience that twist while it was still actually a twist.

The prequels were made FOR children, so in essence, they are great movies cuz they pleased the target demographic.

I got super bored watching Han and Leia fix the Falcon inside a space slug, and Luke lifting rocks on Dagobah. The bad writing/dialog things weren't apparent to me until I was an adult. HOWEVER... on re-watching the originals, I noticed that many of those same flaws existed. A lot of the dialog in ANH in particular is super cringey (which CVH's biased ass didn't even comment on). The universe in the Originals also just seems so empty and boring, now that the prequels have established and built up so much lore.

[@Gemnist98]

The vast majority of Star Wars movies have only one lightsaber fight.Phantom Menace had two but the First was super brief, and The Last Jedi technically had three but one was a flashback, one didn’t actually use lightsabers, and one had a ghost just dodging the lightsaber. Revenge of the Sith is the only one too really capitalize on lightsaber duels, having a massive total of five.

I agree. While I know V is a better movie and IV really is a perfect starting point, VI is my personal favorite. The finale usually has the best moments since it can show the Hero at their best. In V, Luke could barely move his lightsabre, but in VI, he can lift C-3PO in a wooden throne. I know everyone hates on the prequels but it's my love of the original trilogy that makes me rethink the early 2000 ones. The first Star Wars movies I saw were the prequels and they were great! I understood most things and, tho I know the dialogue is bad and didn't have editors to fix such things, the badly written things were easy to understand. For me, the original saga (first six episodes) are the movies I enjoy, that I watch on my own or with others. And so far, The Mandalorian has a similar feel to the original three. If you've never seen a Star Wars thing before, the setting is weird, but it draws you in. There's a charm to it; one that all three movies have.

@Geralt of Trivia Ooo... I really disagree with that one. If we're removing the ewoks can we also remove the puffin-merchandise that is porgs? They were only added due to the native birds being in every stinking shot and, unlike ewoks, don't add anything to the plot. Real question, in Legends Boba didn't die and had actually been eaten a few times before, has this been changed with Disney's new canon or do we simply not know?

[@J__T]

@Geralt of Trivia That's too bad, Boba was an awesome character. You & I have very different definitions of embarrassment if you think the ewoks are but the porgs aren't. In the OT, no one brought the ewoks with them, so yeah, their cute and they don't blink but there only on one tiny moon of the planet Endor. Porgs are everywhere and unlike ewoks they aren't real. You can't what's on screen b/c they're computer generated, but ewoks? Ewoks are practical, at least there's something for the actors to look at. Porgs should've stayed on the island just like the puffins do...

Even with the stuff he hated, he still had to admit that the movie was better than average. There was some really good stuff in it, like seeing Luke doing his Jedi thing to rescue Han, the speeder bike scene, the Yoda scene that has Luke beginning to come to grips with the fact that Vader is his father, the Obi-Wan scene with Luke having to deal with the fact that he can't kill his father, the scene with Luke and Vader reuniting for the first time since their fight, the throne room fight, and let's not forget the amazing space battle to end the film. I can see why the Ewoks aren't too popular with people, and maybe George did make a mistake by not having that battle on Kashyyyk so that the Wookies would be fighting the Stormtroopers, but overall, there's a lot of really good stuff in ROTJ. It's not as bad as his hatred makes it out to be. Plus, Lando was just so awesome in this movie. Billy Dee Williams' acting was so good. Also, can we get some love for 3PO growing as a character in this film? In Star Wars, 3PO tells Luke that he's not much for telling stories, but in ROTJ, 3PO does a fantastic job of telling stories to the Ewoks. So, even 3PO grew as a character throughout the trilogy.

As much as 5 (my favourite) and 4 are the quintessential Star Wars, the best moment to me MIGHT be in 6 when Luke rejoins Vader on the forest moon before the final showdown.

[@thisisfyne]

"These are the rebels. This is the Empire. And the Empire is really big and really scary. An-- damn he's really tall" ^Love that Spider-Verse reference. Thank you. I take for granted how well thought out your commentary is.

the main thing i love about the prequels is the era before palpatine rose to power its soo interesting to me and thats a part of the rason i love clone wars cuz it expands that era all in all i love every star wars movie exept the sequels

[@bluemartian9642]

The prequels would've been perfect if all 3 movies were the same quality as clone wars.

I loved Attack of the Clones because as a kid I loved military stuff. Oh man, seeing a futuristic battle with space wizards and badass clones and scary droids was the stuff of my dreams! I still love a lot of Star Wars battles because it's just cool stuff to imagine and think about. Even the boring politics made the universe feel real and lived in imo. All the battles and stuff got me re-emersed to the point that I forgot about the goofy and awkward dialogue or dumb scenes

A New Hope is a perfect intro to a story, Empire Strikes Back is the perfect sequel, and Return of the Jedi is a- well, it’s an attempt at a perfect ending
