Even when I was a kid I was never content with ROTJ’s ending. I want more. Hopefully the ST will have a more grandiose ending to the Saga. While ROTJ’s ending was great when the OT only existed now that Star Wars is a Saga the impact has dissipated.

To me ROTJ is disappointing even as an ending to the trilogy. I don’t really care about saga, but still ROTJ just resolves all the brilliant plot-lines established by the previous two films in the laziest way possible. When ESB was being made, four to seven more sequels were planned. This plan was cut short and the ultimate victory of the rebels was rushed like crazy. When DS1 was destroyed, it was a setback for the Empire, but still they remained strong. Then when DS2 is destroyed (granted, along with the emperor and a bunch of Star Destroyers), the Empire is pretty much finished? How come? The trilogy just seems to end mid-air.

Having said that, when I was a kid, ROTJ was my favourite. 😃
