What order do people watch them in if they go back and watch again? My missus hasn't seen them all and i'm not sure what route to take. Thinking 4,5,6,1,2,3
This. Luke I am your father is too big not to experience. Also I got goose pimples the moment Darth became Darth, as a result of the order I watched em. Isn't this because you'd waited over 20 years for it and probably already watched the original 3 loads of times? Won't be the same for a Star Wars newbie. Think my favourite bit of the new 3 was seeing Yoda finally get his mighty weapon out. Yes, almost certainly. But the thing is, at least when I make er indoors watch it, I am talking over the whole thing anyway telling her why she should also be excited about it.

The bit that gets me is still the opening scene of New Hope where we see the huge Star Destroyer passing through the shot for what seems like forever.
I was probably somewhere between 5 and 7 when I saw that for the first time on TV and I can remember it like it was yesterday. As a kid it was totally awe inspiring.

As I was telling my Missus and she wasn't listening to me the other day when New Hope was on TV, they had a model the size of a car for the Star Destroyer and a cameraman on a mechanics trolley was pulled underneath it, then they played it backwards. I'm so lucky she married me before Star Wars was put back on ITV this month.

Worst thing about Phantom Menace was they had one of the coolest characters ever (Darth Maul) and they simply didn't use him.
Maul V Kenobi & Jinn though!!!!

I'd guess the original actors, on the assumption they are playing them as oldies with a new bunch of heroes.

If they do start into the EU then the Rogue & Wraith Squadrons series are made for a series of films. (Apart from the ridiculous diversion to the vaguely Elizabethan planet with blaster swords).

I'm a massive Star Wars geek and I'm very happy with the news, provided the role for George Lucas as a 'creative consultant' is the same as when you give your kid the role of 'Navigator' on a long road trip just to keep them quiet and have them stare at something colourful while the real business is done.
The originals are going to get reissued again for sure so Disney get a cash buzz, have the original cuts souped up to HD without Greedo shooting first, Han stepping on Jabba, Vader shouting nooooo! or any of the other crap George has messed with the series.
As for Episode 7 onwards, I'd be quite happy with them being animated but with the 'almost real animation' you see in the Old Republic video game trailers. Fan boys are going to go crazy with cannon issues with the expanded universe but Disney should put on a good movie. As long as George is locked in a cupboard.
