CPslograd Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 I can't take anymore of Retrofade and Jackmormons crazy Russian crap. It's driving me away from the board. Im going to try to change the subject. I just saw RogueOne again, man that was a fun movie. A Star Wars movie with no Jedi, and no sequels to set up. I really dug it. Although I talked to a couple buddies, and they didn't like it as much. And my boy is tired of the whole heroine deal that has become the Disney/Star Wars formula. Anyway, here is my power ranking of Star Wars. 1. Empire Srikes Back (the classic) 2. A New Hope (the original) 3. RogueOne (a fun movie with great pace) 4. Revenge of the Sith (as awful as the prequels were, Lucas somehow pulled a great movie out of his ass for his finale) 5. Return of the Jedi (solid and satisfying) 6. The Force Awakens (good movie, with funny lines and good effects) 7. Phantom Menace (boring movie) 8. Attack of the Cones. (A damn near franchise killing movie) What do you guys think? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPslograd Posted April 6, 2017 Author Share Posted April 6, 2017 It looks like we're pretty close except I liked 3 more than you guys. I guess I might be grading it on a curve, the other two were so bad, I had zero expectations, but then I'll be damned if the third one wasn't a good movie. And McGregor was money.

TheSanDiegan Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 IMO two Anakins were every bit as damaging as one Jar Jar. IIRC, 1 Jar Jar = 2 Anakins = 30 ewoks. 1. IV 2. RO 3. V 4. VII 5-8. The rest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I and II were more like III...I enjoyed Revenge of the Sith...Star Wars just has some REALLY good movies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my ranking, I may have ranked Episode 3 as the 6th best movie but it's a lot closer to the movies ranked above it than it is the ones below it. The light saber battle between Obi Wan and Anakin is the best light saber battle in all the movies.

retrofade Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Empire Strikes Back A New Hope Revenge of the Sith Return of the Jedi The Force Awakens Rogue One Attack of the Clones There are no other Star Wars movies as far as I'm concerned since you can legitimately skip Phantom Menace and not miss anything of true importance. You get some background information on Anakin and the Trade Empire, but nothing important that isn't covered in AotC. I'm still biased against Return of the Jedi because of the stupid freaking Ewoks. 4-6 are nearly interchangeable in my ranking, they're in a second tier below my top three, but worlds above AotC.

A New Hope (yes, I know it wasn't called this originally) may have been a "change event", as you call it, but it wasn't a better film than Empire. That being said, I still consider it to be the second best film in the franchise and certainly wouldn't have it ranked as low as @thelawlorfaithful does.

HR_Poke Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Jedi Empire Force Awakens New Hope Rouge One - great concept but they did some bonehead moves and the constant transitions made me feel like an ADD kid without his aderal... revenge attack phantom. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

renoskier Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 I'm so confused I think I've only seen 2, maybe 3 of the movies. If I wanted to start at the beginning, in what order should the series be watched? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
