Star Wars IV-VI was only good because I was 8 when I watched them.

The prequel trilogy was much better than the orginals. The sequels were trash.

The prequels at least didn’t have actors that were so drunk on set that they constantly had to hold on to furniture so they didn’t topple over.

But go rewatch the original trillogy with an open mind. It’s not good.

The only advantage it has is that you were younger when you watched it.

Were you around 8 when you watched the prequels?

The last time I watched the original trilogy it was horrible. That was also the first time I watched any of the special editions. I grew up on the original releases taped off the TV so all the extra cgi and changing of songs etc really ruined it for me. I know that the original theatrical versions I’ve got on dvd will hit that rose tinted goodness for me.

Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!

How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.

If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it’s something that’s widely accepted, give it an arrow down.

Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)
  • If your post is a “General” unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
  • If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].

Rules:

1. NO POLITICS

Politics is everywhere. Let’s make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.

2. Be civil.

Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others’ opinions.

3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.

4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...

Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.

5. No trolling.

This shouldn’t need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.

Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
