I think the ROTJ has the reputation for worst of the OT (which is like being the skinny one in the cast of Predator)

That's a great analogy!  :-)

I have never really seen the problem with the film.  Revisiting some of the best bits of Star Wars in the final film has never seemed like a bad idea to me.  The three elements of the climax work well enough, though three sequences happening simultaneously is definitely the limit. 

I don't mind some of the childish humor with the Ewoks, if that is what it is.  I don't even mind some of it in the PT; it was just Jar Jar that really annoyed me on the humor side. 

It is not the great film that ESB is, but it was an extremely hard act to follow.  Part of ROTJ's problem is that it had to cover so much ground in one film.
