Military genius bad guy, ages-old evil bad guy, plotting for decades bad guy, all thwarted by the same few people. I ate all that stuff up as a teenager anyways, which I guess would have been their target audience. Back then I just wanted to see the movie characters overcoming impossible odds. I don't know if they ever wrote the old Star Wars books intending that they stand up to intense scrutiny.
