      You will be incredibly disappointed if you do. It’s like Boomers ramming The Beatles down your throat. It’s religious fantasy.

        Eh disagree with the Beatles comparison. Their work stands the test of time, and their influence on music is, in many ways, actually tangible

          Ok Boomer, and if you drag your kids to enough Star Wars movies, eventually they will succumb and watch every crap movie in the franchise.

          There was a lot of influential music in that era not the Beatles.

      They have their flaws like many movies that are space operas. Suspension of disbelief and all that is required. That said there are some just generally good gems that you might like. Rogue One was a good heist movie, The Empire Strikes Back was good because people still told George to stuff it with some of his ideas.

      With Disney just ramming so much Star Wars down our throats and much of it mediocre at best, I look at the older works more critically. I think there’s some fun to be had still but I wouldn’t consider them required watching anymore.
