Pakka, you can still be a SW & OOT fan and not think twice. When I watch any SW movie, it is in all context of when it was made. When I watch SW/ANH, I don't think of the sibling relationship between Luke/Leia, and I don't think of the father/son relationship of Luke/Vader either, cause it isn't prevailent in the movie. When I watch ESB, I don't get icked out when Luke/Leia kiss, cause there isn't any context in the movie that says so. But when I watch ROTJ, I do see it all come full circle, and I accept the ending on Endor as Luke is burning his father by himself for closure, and Han/Leia are together, and Luke hugs his sister as he made it back from DSII.

Guys, don't let this plot hole stuff ruin the movies for you, they are too damn good to let some so-so ideas that Lucas went out on a limb hurt the reason for our enjoyment. This happened to me with the PT movies, I just can't get past all the bad shit that Lucas put in there to tie to the OT, whether it be Ani building C3PO, Padme losing the will to live, or Yoda/Chewy being boys. Part of me wishes that stuff wouldn't bother me, but the PT movies just aren't as good, and I feel that is the biggest reason why I adapted to the OT story, yet never took to the PT.
