 Erm , I get confused by the formal numbering system. I meant the first three, in order of release.Yes, loved them. Have seen them  8-9 times each...

I began reading sci fi in my early teens.. One of my favourite early authors was E E Doc Smith, father of the space opera.  I think that is an accurate description of the Star Wars series. It's all pretty simple, old Saturday matinee stuff, in the same vein as Indiana Jones.

Space opera is a subgenre of science fiction that emphasizes space warfare, melodramatic adventure, interplanetary battles, chivalric romance, and risk-taking. Set mainly or entirely in outer space, it usually involves conflict between opponents possessing advanced abilities, futuristic weapons, and other sophisticated technology. The term has no relation to music, but is instead a play on the terms "soap opera" and "horse opera",[1] the latter of which was coined during the 1930s to indicate clichéd and formulaic Western movies. Space operas emerged in the 1930s and continue to be produced in literature, film, comics, television and video games
