I cant argue against the fact that they defecated upon my own childhood, but they're a thing that happened that introduced the next generation to Star Wars and helped to lay the foundation of where we are now and where we are now, as Star Wars fans, is a pretty good place.
Although Female leads with ridiculous British accents is getting a little old. In all honesty its the accents that are really starting to bug me. Cant explain it.

British accents are also the standard for anything involving knights/fantasy stuff too. Even though in that point in Britain, if they had been speaking English at all (it might have been celtic or latin or a combination of) it would have been old English, which probably would've sounded more like German than modern English.
I guess people yelling at each other in harsh German accents isn't as regal as people speaking in modern upper class UK accents. Also, I'm not sure why we always focus on Britain when referring to anything with castles and swords as they had those lots of other places at that time period...but yeah British accents.
