I remember that Roger's review of TPM was fairly positive (thumbs-up), and his review of AOTC was pretty scathing (thumbs-down). I think he also gave a thumbs-up to ROTS. I have a feeling Gene Siskel wouldn't have been as kind to them.

I used to have Roger and Gene's original 1983 "at the movies" reviews of ROTJ on audiotape, but it's lost. They both loved ROTJ, as a matter of fact I think that entire show was dedicated to ROTJ and the other 2 SW films. I remember they showed a clip of that ROTJ show when they reviewed the SE in 1997.
