Star Wars Movies Thread

I haven't seen Solo or the other new one yet, but as far as the rest I would rank them like this:

1. Empire Strikes Back
2. A New Hope
3. Rogue One
4. Force Awakens
5. Revenge of the Sith (might be controversial ranking it this high but it was the first one I saw live in theater)
6. Return of the Jedi
7. Phantom Menace
8. Attack of the Clones (in my experience most people say this is better than Phantom Menace but I think it sucks in every way, whereas Phantom Menace at least has Liam Neeson and Darth Maul)

Return of the Jedi waaaay too low. But TLJ fucking sucked.

Rather lengthy, but I watched this a few weeks ago and thought it was really interesting and thorough.

I'd suggest skipping ahead to 1:00

Return of the Jedi fucking sucked.

They pretty much all suck other than the first two films. Return of the Jedi was like Bobby Bowden's last years at FSU.

"Return of the Care Bears" is when Lucas started losing it. Fucking teddy bears against military-trained stormtroopers? Would have made more sense to have that battle on the wookies home planet.

My ranking would be this:

Star Wars movies I loved:
Empire Strikes Back
New Hope
Rogue One

Star Wars movies that I liked:
Revenge of the Sith
The Force Awakens

Star Wars Movies I was "meh" on:
Solo
The Last Jedi

Star Wars movies I thought sucked:
Phantom Menace
Attack of the Clones
Return of the Jedi

I give star wars a fucking LOOOOOONG leash just cause of my age and my love for them, but TLJ and Solo both fucking sucked.

My wife was never in SW but she sat through the first hour of TLJ with me running some fucking MST3K commentary to it, to which I finally said to get lost and let me finish this shit on my own (it was the first time I was watching it as well). Should have let her stay as it was far better with her jokes then it was without.

As bad as the prequel and new sequels are, I can't wait to show my kids to them. And I'm going to do it "machete" style. For those that haven't heard about that, it's a fun way to introduce people that haven't seen them before. You watch episode IV and V then go watch II then III and finally VI. This way you still the "oh shit" moment when you find out vader is lukes father in V and then get a flashback as to how anakin became vader in II & III then close it out with the happy ending of VI.

The Last Jedi doesn't work for me on any level. I probably dislike it more than any other movie I've ever seen.

I can't believe so many of you liked or loved The Force Awakens. That was a pretty shit film too, honestly. Meh at best. The Last Jedi was worse than The Christmas Special.

It was basically a rehash of A New Hope. And I can't take Emo Vader.

The Last Jedi makes Force Awakens seem like Empire.

Return of the Jedi fucking sucked.

The Ewoks were really bad. But seeing Luke as a full fledged Jedi Master makes up for it.
