    Was it? Or was it just a breath of fresh air after the other two? And yes I did grow up with it, even saw it in theatre.

      I also grew up with the prequels and yes, RotS was leagues ahead of them but it’s not just that. It has its issues, but I firmly believe it is a really good movie. I also grew up with prequels and saw both Episode 2 and 3 in theatres. But while the first two were quite cringey with some good parts, RotS was just good and stood up the test of time. More than I can say bout New Hope tbh.

        Oh you poor kids. You never knew the world where there weren’t the prequels. Or even the trilogy.

        There were many years - many! - when “prequel” wasn’t even a word! Let alone a real word.

        You’ll just have to trust us when we tell you there was a magical time when there was only one Star Wars and it was glorious.
