CO, whenever you post I feel like me and you had a very similar childhood experience growing up. I was too young to see them in theatres and grew up in the 1980s watching them on video. My dad taped SW off television for me and then later ESB and I watched those over and over. At one point I taped over Star Wars, but then someone gave me a recording of ROTJ from HBO, but I didn't watch it much and even taped over parts of it with Super Dave Osbourne (ouch for ROTJ). Later I re-taped Star Wars but then lost ESB. I finally bought ESB on video when I was ten, my first video purchase ever. Then when the 1995 Faces tapes came out, I only bought SW and ROTJ because I already owned ESB. So 1997 was the first time I bought a boxset and it wasn't even the original versions. I never really thought of them as one big story, even though there is a logical progression that you get a sense of, but I mainly just enjoyed each film on its own merits.
