As I'm born in the late 80's (god, saying that makes me feel so old), it sadly wasn't possible to see them at a time were they actually were considered groundbreaking. The special effects aged very badly, imho. I think it's a lot of nostalgia, especially for people who watched them as kids.
I saw Return of the Jedi in the theater with my elementary school class. It was so badass! There were 20 kids outside the theater after the movie pretending they were swordfighting with the rolled up movie posters that they gave us. I loved the movies for a long time. I even enjoyed the prequels, just to see the storyline, but the new movies don't do it for me at all. The dialogue and writing just seems so lazy. It's a shame too, because they look really cool and have great sound production.
