I don't own a television, but one thing I do own is the Star Wars Trilogy on DVD. #4,5, and 6, of course. Those ....other.... movies don't count. Hey, did I ever tell you about the time I bought my cousin's 7-year old twins the original series on DVD and they were like "oh, we don't really like those Star Wars. We like the new ones". .....Not only did those kids die to me that day, a little bit of myself died as well. This is sorta akin to how I feel about the Batman movies. I think "Batman Begins" is probably the best one, but by virtue of the fact that "Batman" came out when I was 12 years old - that being prime time to be completely obsessed with Batman - the two movies are running even keel, although I'd give more merit to my youthful delight with the first Tim Burton Batman, which I saw in the theaters 6 times.
