Rating depends on presentation mode
In 1977, George Lucas made the most entertaining light action movie since Errol Flynn died. Over the next six years, he made two sequels that deepened, rather than cheapened, the original. Then he had to ruin it all by continually tinkering with his best work and taking the originals out of circulation. Because the original trilogy depended very much on a detailed image on a giant screen, and because Lucas has since released two altered versions, how I grade the original Star Wars depends on what version is being shown and in what format.
