Xhonzi and TheBoost, I'm on your side on this issue. I think kids can't always make smart decisions for themselves and when I have kids, they're definitely gonna see the OT first and then they can watch the PT, when they're old enough to arrange it for themselves, I'm not gonna show it to them. And I would totally remove the lightsabre from the Yoda figure.

The central question is, what do you mean exactly by "arranging it for themselves"? Does it mean "being able to understand dialogue"? Or "rightfully concluding that the PT is inferior garbage"?

Why can they watch the OT BEFORE they're "old enough" to "arrange it for themselves", appreciate its quality or understand its themes or what's going on?

Sure little kids can't always make "smart decisions", but does it really matter in a case where there are virtually no actual consequences to a "dumb decision"? If you wait until they can make a decision to watch a movie before showing them the OT (is there really any reason to do it prior to that?), why make any efforts to prevent them from making the "dumb decision" of watching the PT first? Is there any specific reason why they shouldn't?

What if they'll like the PT more for a while? What if they then watch the OT, and end up liking more? And then in one year, as it it is with kids, their opinions might be radically changed in EITHER direction?

I mean, hey, show your kids whatever movies in whatever order you want, it's not a big deal - just make sure you don't show them Episodes V, VI and III too early, they might not take the electroshock torture too well :D
