I know young people who find the pace of Star Wars '77 to be incredibly slow and boring. Heheh, it's acknowledged on the DVD commenttary that the pacing was ultra-fast for 1977, but lacsidaisical by current standards.

That, and it being the standalone movie that has little if anything to do with the sequels or prequels can make for a very poor experience awaiting anyone who's watched any of the other "Star Wars" movies earlier.

(I still find the "running [pointlessly] around the Death Star" to be an absurd statement. It's a princess-rescue movie that, in '77, harkened back to movies 50 years earlier. If it now harkens back 80 years, I don't see how the nostalgic plot is any less valid. But whatever.)
