Rob Zombie shows love for the OT and hate for the PT in this interview (link starts at the lead in to that conversation)
Was filmed just before TFA was released.

It was fun when it was Peter Mayhew in the Chewbacca costume- So the logic is then “Well, if you liked that, here’s a thousand CGI wookiees running over a hill!” No, That’s just stupid.
You’ll notice if you watch, like, Phantom Menace, if you dare, you have Liam Neeson, Ewan McGregor, Natalie Portman… but in those movies, they’re all shitty because they’re always on a green screen and it looks horrible. You can feel that the actors have nothing to grasp onto.
I was excited by Star Wars in 1977. Not anymore.
