I would have to say, for me, it hasn't aged well at all.
The original film was something I lived in 1977. The single most representative entity of Star Wars for me was the John Berkey poster that came inside the soundtrack;
That poster was hanging in my bedroom. It captured perfectly how I viewed the adventure when I wasn't watching the film. The soundtrack was just about all I listened to and going to the theater to see Star Wars was a weekly occurrence at least.
I was 15 when Star wars came out, so I wasn't a toy buyer or collector of anything other than printed matter. Star Wars wasn't a group\kid\toy\costume\shared-experience thing for me. It was largely a personal nerddom of just the film, the music, and my imagination.
The emotional feel for me is most clearly expressed in the original theatrical trailer. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9gvqpFbRKtQ
That distant, serious, dark tone was how I felt about the film. Empire had none of the distant, desolate, loneliness of Star Wars, so it didn't connect with me the same way because it didn't feel like it was part of the same story. I dug it alright, but I eventually drifted. Return, on the other hand, was my prequel trilogy. It was where I said goodbye.
I drifted even further from the franchise after Return and didn't really reconnect until the Faces set was released, and then it was really only a one-time watch of all three. I had Star Wars & Empire on laserdisc, but hadn't watched them since the 80s. They were eventually lost in a flood. Purchasing the 93 laserdisc set in 2002-ish was where I fully reconnected, but only with Star Wars. It's also what led me to this board.
These days - having grown tired of The Machine, the lies, the suppression, the contamination, etc - that original emotion from 1977 exists only in the NPR Star Wars, Splinter Of The Mind's Eye, & The Han Solo Adventures. They have all supplanted the original film for me, which I last watched four years ago when the 1977 theatrical version was released as a non-anamorphic bonus disc.
So, in answer to the original question; Star Wars 1977 hasn't aged well for me - but the original emotional connection to that Far Far Away universe is alive & well. It's just in a different form now. A much better form.
