I saw them as a child and found them totally stupid. Wild west pew pew but in space. Not everone who grew up with them loves them. If they were made today, noone would bat an eye over the mediocre story ๐
As I'm born in the late 80's (god, saying that makes me feel so old), it sadly wasn't possible to see them at a time were they actually were considered groundbreaking. The special effects aged very badly, imho. I think it's a lot of nostalgia, especially for people who watched them as kids.
