Some time ago, somebody posted a RottenTomatoes ratings page for the original Star Wars movies, based on reviews from the years they actually came out (as opposed to the modern reviews that are up now, with the layers of nostalgia piled on since 1997).

I can't find it now... does anyone know where it is? Can you post the URL (or the archived one if it's no longer up... using webarchive.org's wayback machine)?


Thanks in advance...

Sorry Kurgan. I'm good with Google but I couldn't find them. Low signal to noise ratio when you do any searches involving rottentomatoes.

Okay, well I found the RT reviews for ANH and ESB via a sig (that's where I saw them) which was from the webarchive.org wayback machine... but sadly, the ROTJ ones were irretrievable.

I was really trying to see if people (critics and theater audiences) back then REALLY hated ROTJ as much as some fans let on these days (or since 1997, when it got bashed on newspapers and magazines and on the 'net).


So unless somebody here saved a copy or knows of another mirror, I guess it's gone.. sad.gif


But they did indeed used to have an "original reviews" thing and a "special edition" reviews thing seperate.
