If you were showing a child the Star Wars movies for the first time, do you think it's better to watch them:

4,5,6, then 1,2,3 (the order they were made) or 1,2,3 then 4,5,6


I saw them 1,2,3,4,5,6 order and there was no surprises if you know what I mean. I knew who was who's father. Anyway, I just wanted to know opinions on it.

Also, what age would you show these movies to a little boy for the first time. I was thinking 7? What age were you do you remember? (I was 27 haha)
 
4, 5, 6 and then 1, 2, 3.

I think I was about 9 or 10 when I saw ANH on TV. I saw ESB in the cinema on a re-release in 1983 (same year as another seminal film War Games) and ROTJ also in 1983 which I saw about 5 times. In 1982 it was ET. 1982-83 really were classic years even if the Irish economy was going down the tubes at the time which I was unaware of. The last decent snowfall happened in 82 and the summers seemed longer and hotter :)
 
If I were showing a child, it would have to be 4,5,6 and then 1,2,3. only because after watching 1,2,3 with all it's modern special effects, 4,5,6 may come across a bit aged, which it is.
 
John Culshaw is very funny. Got distracted by the copy machine video on the right though;)
 
My children watch these movies whenever they vist their cousins - in fact their cousins seem to have them permananetly on the tv (can't think when I've last been to their house and they haven't been on). The cousins are aged 6 and 3 and love star wars. I don't think it matters what way you show them - maybe the RTE way 5 3 1 2 6 4!
