i think TPM is an abomination, and AOTC is a huge disappointment. the prequels overall broke my heart...i'm assuming that's not "taking it too seriously" in a place like this.

however, right now, i do like ROTS a lot. i think THIS movie comes closest to replicating a little of the crazy swashbuckle and fun that the original trilogy had, even if it also offers the most intense and powerful sequences in any SW film. it worked for me--it was by no means perfect, but to me, other than ESB, none of them are.

but the OT is universally so fun and great and exciting and mind-blowing that I forgive its faults to savor the many great things. i can't do that with TPM or AOTC, but I think I will be able to do that with ROTS.

then again, I liked both previous prequels before their video releases, so who knows.
