I remember watching parts of the original trilogy and thinking they were interesting but were ultimately full of that boring interpersonal drama stuff. When the prequels came along, they really got me into the world building aspect of the story and gave me a love for Star Wars as a whole. After that and getting older, I gained a greater appreciation for the older films as well, even though I'm still not much a fan of interpersonal drama stuff (and, perhaps unsurprisingly, movies in general.)

From what I understand, the sequel trilogy doesn't fit very well with the established world building, and is iffy on the interpersonal drama as well, so I don't have much desire to watch them.
