Did your View of the Characters change after seeing the films?

[The Only Real Estel]

I can appreciate the films for being what they are. I am coming to appreciate them more as I overcome my disappointment in the flaws

Although it's completly off-topic, I just wanted to say that I'm starting to appreciate them more not necessarily because I'm getting over the flaws, but because I've put a lot of effort into defending them from baseless accusations over the last few months. After defending the films (most of the time), it's harder for me to be mad at them...
