    For 9 months now I haven't been watching any of the classic films and you know why? Because im refreshing my brain for the time when episode III and all the DVD's come out. I think that the whole experience is gonna be much better, Don't even listen to the soundtracks till all films get on dvd and that's my advice to you all. I'm not trying to look smart or anything but I think it would be a good thing to do.

    So, could you resist not watching any of the films till the end of ep3?

    Yeah, easily, I haven't watched any since AOTC DVD came out nearly a year ago.

    It's the music that will be difficult.

    I haven't watched the OT for about a year and a half, due to the fact that my VHS packing in and I now have a DVD to watch most of my films on. I have to admit that it's been hard being without my OT though :_|

    "So, could you resist not watching any of the films till the end of ep3? "

    For sure. It's been more than a year since I watched the OT. I think I did before AOTC came out.

    My VHS packed in whilst I was watching the Battle of Hoth! :( Ironically, I just started getting snow where, er, the snow should've been! (???) No damage to the tape though, just knackered heads on the video.

    I have only watched AOTC a few times since it came out on dvd. I have watched each of the three OT movies many more times than this because they are not bad movies.

    I didn't watch them now for a while, but I'd die if I couldn't. So no, I couldn't. Especially not with the music.

    I can't go for very long without watching the OT, so I still watch them pretty often. I don't care about "refreshing my brain" before EPISODE III comes out. I'll most-likely never watch all six films in order anyway. I've seen TPM and AOTC twice each. TPM I saw twice in the theater (though the second was not by choice), and AOTC I saw once in the theater and once when it came out on DVD. I don't even own either of them.

    I think I could probably pull it off, but it wouldn't be my choice to do so. I go into periods where I don't watch any of the movies for months...then out of the blue, I pop one of them in. So, yes, it is possible that I could go that long.

    I would have problems no listening to the soundtrack, though. I practically pop one of them in everyday.

    I can't because I host the CT trivia game. I need to watch the movies in order to get question ideas.

    I definitely could not, especially with the soundtracks.

    For those of you who do, I hope it's not a disappointment if going without the OT doesn't significantly affect E3 for you. :p

    I know that not listening to the soundtrack could be very hard,
    but hey, why not?

    I definitely think after not watching the OT for 2 and a half years my expereience of ep3 will be different, I'm not saying its gonna be better, but somehow I feel It;s the right thing to do
