You only need to watch 'A New Hope' to understand... I've lost all respect for you now.
aka Star Wars #1
Especially for you... Shamal at 2:34 you can even hear a storm trooper shout 'CALL YOUR HITS'

But in A New Hope the stormtroopers on the deathstar were deliberately missing.
Obi wan commenting on the destroyed Jawa sand crawler
"And these blast points, too accurate for Sandpeople. Only Imperial Stormtroopers are so precise."
Then there's this line from Grand Moff Tarkin after the escape
"You're sure the homing beacon is secure aboard their ship? I'm taking an awful risk, Vader. This had better work."
Yes I'm a nerd

But which am bestest ?, being old I still favour the first one, A New Hope (technically now the fourth), forget the sometimes dodgy effects etc, it was a revolutionary new spin on sci-fi, which up to that point had been lacklustre at best.

I honestly don't know if I've watched all the 'new' ones but IV, V & VI are still my favourites, probably more to do with nostalgia than the quality of the films tho.
Was on a school trip to London when A New Hope was premiered in the UK... begged for Stormtrooper figures for Xmas and never go a single one (took me 40+ years to find out there were none at the time). I'm adamant I saw some in Harrods which was impossible/improbable.
