As an OG Star Wars fan (I was 21 when it came out), I had a really hard time when my kids liked the prequel trilogy more than the originals. As my youngest once told me (when he was in his teens), the original trilogy was great, but the prequels were the Star Wars his generation grew up with, and that made a difference. I'm fortunate that my kids grew up not only with their own favorites, but with appreciation for mine as well. The Star Wars comment opened my eyes to generational differences that have only grown since then, but at least with mutual respect for our differences. (And none of us really like the sequel trilogy that much).
