George Lucas: It's a Completely Different Movie
(Filed under: Movies)"Part of the fun for me is that one generation will have seen it backwards. ... [But] what's really important is the story, and the development of the characters. Now, once you get to IV, you know Darth Vader's the main character because you saw him [in previous movies]. So when Darth Vader walks in, you say, oh, my God. Now, when you come across Princess Leia, you know that's his daughter right away, and you think, does he know? No, he doesn't know. Or does he know? And when you cut down to the planet and see Luke, you go, oh, my God, that's Darth Vader's son, and Ben Kenobi has been waiting all this time to send him on his adventure. You're waiting for them to realize who everybody is. So it is a completely different movie."

Seeing it backwards. That's kind of weird.
It's be kind of like taking some kind of out of sequence movie and reordering it.
Imagine watching the three Back To Future movies in order. Starting back in the wild west and ending in the future.
