Naturally, this isn't exactly an objective audience... after all, this is originaltrilogy.com. Which movies do we suppose people here are going to prefer? If this were prequel.com, the results would likely be reversed.

You're right that ROTS would be up there if this were a PT crowd, but putting that aside, it does say something that ESB & SW are tied right now, and ROTJ has zero votes. Sure this isn't a scientific poll, but I feel this is what made the OT great, two classics and one good sequel in ROTJ.

Most of my friends fall exactly the way this poll is, there is a group like me who love SW more, and they seem to be more ObiWan/Luke fans, and then I have friends who love ESB and they are more Han Solo/Vader fans. But not one friend I know, and they are all 30-somethings now who saw SW in 1977, thinks ROTJ is the best, and that shows that quality will eventually show its true colors to the fans years later.

All the PT fans love the PT movies cause I still feel they are the flavor of the month, cause I loved ROTJ at 11 years old back in '83, but as time goes on and you get older, all of the sudden you begin to realize movie quality. I don't begrudge anyone for enjoying the PT, but I think they will have a big revelation 10-15 years from now when they try to watch the movies again and again, you just can't watch an average movie over and over, unless you are content with it.
