S/O: What's your Star Wars movie rank order?

[Anonymous]

Rewatching it all now, starting with the Prequels. So this could change. However, right now it would be:

6, 4, 5, 9, 7, 8, 3, 2, 1

I like Solo and Rogue One, but put them in a separate list because they’re not part of the trilogy canon.

I feel the same way about Rogue One. It is one of the only recent ones that gets better on rewatching. And the last 30 minutes is draw dropping

Rogue One is the only actual war movie of the whole Star Wars canon.

ok ... no one said Star Wars--despite the name--was ever a "war" movie. it's a space opera

5, 3, 4, 6, Rogue, 7, 1, 2, 9, 8.

As you can tell, I hate the last 2 Disney movies. They are trash. Last Jedi is the worst movie I’ve ever seen. And I Don’t care about Solo, it’s just a bad fan film and doesn’t count.

I really, really love Rogue One and I’ve been a Star Wars mega fan since I saw episode 4 when it first came out when I was a little kid. I can rewatch it and the Empire Strikes Back over and over again.

I did not like the Han Solo movie at all.

I didn't see the originals until after I saw the prequels and every other movie that ripped it off so I never got to be "wowed" by it...

1, 7, R1, Solo, 2, 5, 8, 6, 3, 4, 9

Wow, this ordering is fascinating to me. I have a hard time imagining 1 and 7 as favorites, and 4 as the almost worst. I would think Jar Jar alone would knock 1 off.

The last act of Rogue One is so different in style and tone from the rest of it, it's clear that Tony Gillroy had a lot to clean up for it to make sense. Still, it's a jarring change.

Pp here. Naturally I mean jaw dropping but draw dropping has a certain ring to it

[Anonymous]

Jar jar and the line “there’s always a bigger fish” killed 1

[Anonymous]

2 (1980), 1 (1977), 3 (1983)

I’m sorry. Were there more?

...Hmm...

You're not alone. Everyone looks at me like I'm crazy. I think it's on par with how my nine year old thinks Jurassic Park is boring, but Jurassic World is the most amazing thing ever made. I saw Episode I opening night when I was in 11th grade. Huge screen, THX surround sound. The lightsaber battles were so fast paced, the droids looked real, and the podrace was visually stunning (by 90s standards). By the time I got around to seeing Episode I on an old VHS, it looked so outdated that I just couldn't get into it. Darth Vader's lightsaber choreography didn't really hold up to Darth Maul's fast paced dual saber fight. The movie also felt really slow.

The Force Awakens allowed me to see the original cast in a movie with modern effects, so I feel like it's the best of both worlds. For what it's worth, I hated the actor who played Anakin in Episodes II and III. The story was also rushed.

This ordering is a complete disgrace. 1 is number one? OMG!
