I just finished watching 4K80 and 4K83 back-to-back. I wondered beforehand whether watching RotJ right after ESB would make RotJ look bad by comparison, but it didn’t. In fact, it made me realize how well those two films go together. ESB is dark and gloomy and claustrophobic and full of setbacks for the heroes. RotJ is lighter and goofier and has everything fall into place by the end. It’s a kind of reprieve after the events of Empire. I think the trilogy needed that.
