I was the same way. Then I grew up and discovered the brilliance that is The Empire Strikes Back. Of course, I discovered a bunch of other movies along the way that are true "masterpieces" and the SW films were replaced in my top spot of all-time favorite movies. We all grow up. (Sh)it happens.

jimbo you grew up???
i dunno.. i find it hard to believe that a 16 year old is hardly grown up...
plus you find AOTC the best Star Wars movie...
thats just about as childish as ROTJ... i mean all the CG looks so fake and cartoonish...

but hey... you said you've grown up so we all believe you...

I'll never grow up, if I can help it. I'm 33 with a wife and 3 kids and I'm still not "grown up."

Princess Leia: I happen to like nice men.
Han Solo: I'm a nice man.

LOL! Gundark, I'm with you. I'm 38 and still haven't 'grown up.' Star Wars (ANH) is still my all time favorite movie.

I have to say that Empire is by far the best story but Jedi is the most fun to watch.

Can you possible hear the line "Jabba this is your last chance. Free us or die." and not get a smile on your face.

The free us or die part is one of my favorite parts of the movie but its to flawed to be fun. Seeing Yoda fight was fun as hell. More fun then anything before.

And I thought General Grievous needed anti-depressants.

Hot Rod, definitely the old (1997 being old), but still...WHY? It is just silly, him thinking this viable is scary. Worse still, how silly the scene is, especially with the tail step and goofy face.
