Good point. For me, the huge SFX jump in my childhood was Jurassic Park- I can't imagine that someone who grew up after the early 90s would attach as much emotional valence to such a corny story as I did, now that its disbelief-shattering CGI is commonplace.
My younger brother and I were indeed duly impressed by the effects in Jurassic Park... but we also thought the movie itself was rather silly.
When I went to see Star Wars in the theater during the re-release, I was rather surprised at how little there was to it, especially when compared to all the other things set in the same universe that I'd already been exposed to. I basically had the same reaction to the original trilogy that it seems that most people had to the prequel trilogy. (Of the six movies, Attack of the Clones was actually the one that I liked the best; it was the only one that even tried to have Hidden Depths.)
