The last time I watched the original trilogy it was horrible. That was also the first time I watched any of the special editions. I grew up on the original releases taped off the TV so all the extra cgi and changing of songs etc really ruined it for me. I know that the original theatrical versions I’ve got on dvd will hit that rose tinted goodness for me.
The prequel trilogy was much better than the orginals. The sequels were trash.
Were you around 8 when you watched the prequels?

Despecialized edition, try it!
+1 on this, despecialized is the only way to watch the OT.
The prequels at least didn’t have actors that were so drunk on set that they constantly had to hold on to furniture so they didn’t topple over.
But go rewatch the original trillogy with an open mind. It’s not good.
The only advantage it has is that you were younger when you watched it.
