I can understand the nostalgia of anything growing up, cause it just holds a place in you that you dont' forget. I grew up watching Rocky III & IV, and never saw Rocky I & II in the theaters, so they were the sequels from the series that defined all of us who grew up in the 1980's. As years have gone on, I now see Rocky I as the classic it is, and Rocky II as a damn good sequel, and the rest of the series have their ups and downs, but are entertaining. I think that is the same way alot of the younger SW fans will look at the saga now.
