My son is a big cinephile, and he tells me that the first three chapters of Star Wars are undergoing a critical reevaluation, and are generally considered to be pretty good these days. It's probably in response to the awful last chapters, which make the first three look like masterpieces.

It's more that the Clone Wars and other animated series filled in the gaps and made the odd decisions in the movies feel more justified.

But I never watched those, so they still seem like bad movies to me.
