The only real issue with Star Wars is that there was such a long time
between the trilogies, meaning they look quite different due to
technology improvements, differeing style, over-the-top fight scenes,
etc. Many of the later additions to the Original Trilogy look out of
place with the older film quality / style. If all six (and soon a
ridiculously tacked-on third Trilogy) had been made continuously like
"Harry Potter", for example, then those differences would have been
much less noticeable.
