Here is the real problem I'm seeing, something that's been brought up in the last few posts.

People are disliking the originals because they think that the prequels are more the "real" story than the originals simply because they were released recently. The originals now have that cgi look of the prequels because of the SE's except it doesn't mesh well at all with those movies because they were made 20 years earlier, therefore people think of them as being inferior to the prequels which are basically bluescreen epics where everything can conveniently mesh together. This is partly me theorizing on how anyone could actually like the prequels over the originals, which is the real problem I'm seeing. Then again, I do get hopeful whenever I read people's lists of their favorite movies and I see things like "Star Wars before it started sucking," even though that's an equally bandwagon thing to say.
