^For overly-serious OT Purists who think that the OT is free from "silliness".

^ I’ve never heard any OT purists say that, actually the silliness is part of the reason ROTJ is the worst OT film.

^Well, I agree about ROTJ, but OT purists' main argument against the PT is that it's "too dumb", while every one I've ever met loves ROTJ.

SW is not supposed to be overly-serious.

"As you can tell, these films don't take themselves seriously" -George Lucas (AOTC commentary)

"These films are emotionally healthy by design" -George Lucas (TESB commentary)

^ I don’t love ROTJ, only parts of it. The Prequels just seemed to go further in the direction that ROTJ started

^Yeah. TPM was a continuation of the merchandising bug.

Yes, I agree. Like almost everything prequel trilogy, he is underrated.
