This is the only truly good movie of the star wars franchise. Rogue one is pretty good also. The rest are garbage

I agree. I saw all 3 when they first came out in the theater, the first film blew me away as a kid, never seen anything like it before. Everyone was bonkers over it. Empire was pretty good too, but it didn’t feel complete like the first film, which of course it wasn’t. ROTJ was my least favorite of the original trilogy. I’ve really tried to give the new films a chance, saw the 2nd trilogy in the theater, but it felt like I was watching cartoons. I just couldn’t develop any feelings for any of the characters. The computer effects were so unrealistic I couldn’t suspend my disbelief. The physics just aren’t right. And modern Hollywood chase scenes have just become filler, they drag films down. Another thing that bugs me is the changes Lucas made to the original trilogy. George Lucas, the guy I remember in the late 1980’s who publicly and legally FOUGHT to stop the colorization of old B/W films claiming it destroyed art, hypocritically alters HIS films to the point that literally changes the characters. And Han DID shoot first! If he doesn’t, he loses that dimension of bad-guy-turns-good-guy for love.
