Whoops I meant 3

4. The original trilogy and Force Awakens. RotJ is the weakest of those 4 but still very good.

Anyone who says otherwise is a memer

Even Return of the Jedi with Ewoks is still pretty great

am i the only one who thought that the prequels were good

Four. OT and RotS
>RotJ
>bad

It's an 8.5 is Empire is a 10/10 and Hope is a 9. You'd think Ewoks raped some children from all the whiners.
>>
Ep3 is the best one
>>
no, don't worry. I liked them all.
>>
>>64008342
As a whole? They are bad.
But after an Anon in a thread yesterday brought up that Lucas considered Silent Movies the highest form of cinema, going back to them, and not paying any attention to the dialogue, just the visuals and the music? They're kind of nice.
Not Star Wars nice, but nice.
>>
Literally 0 (zero)
>>
The prequels.

The old ones are boring and TFA isn't Lucas canon.
>>
>>64008281
But the Luke and Vader final confrontation from ROTJ is the greatest moment in the entire franchise.
>>
>>64008240
All the OT. Haven't seen TFA yet.

It is child. Even with the Ewoks, RotJ is still better than any prequel shit.

Any OT >>>>>>>> Literal Shit >>>>>>>>>>> Prequels
>>
>>64010457
Yeah, but that doesnt make it good.
There are only 2 good SW movies you fucking ewok apologist.
>>
>>64010560
Ewoks is brought all of RotJ down. I dont applogise for them at all moron. But it was still a good movie. Best lightsaber battle and best space battle of all the movies.

2, plus the combined Sheev scenes from the prequels and ROTJ make 3

>>64008281
That's what makes Jedi hard to pin down. It's got some of the best moments in the entire OT but also some of the weakest. It completely botches Han and Leia but Luke is fucking badass. Sure there's another Death Star but it's the b plot this time, like those episodes of Star Trek or Buffy where the day is saved in the background while the character stories get the focus.

Great:

Good:
4, 7

Good but flawed:
6, 3

Bad:
1, 2

>>64008281
I agree with you but ROTJ did have some great moments. it also had some of the worst moments but overall i enjoyed the movie.
>>
>>64010598
Not only the ewoks ruined that fucking movie.
It was that characters that acted out of place or had nothing to do.
Just look at fucking Han and Leia after the Jabba scene. HOLY SHIT.
And this whole Luke and Leia are siblings bullshit is pure cancer.

After that great movie that empire was, rotj belongs into the fucking garbage can.

im watching (whichever one comes after IV) and there have been 40 windows movie maker style transitions in the first 15 minutes……like…wtf

only 3:

Return of the Jedi and the first 2 prequels

everything else is mainstream garbage
>>
Can we talk bout why the literal fuck in the special editions they changed Luke's line when R2 gets spit out by the swamp monster on Dagobah in Empire from "It's a good thing you don't taste good," to something like, "Are you okay?"

The fuck is even that?

I'd say 3-5.

V and VII were great, IV was good, III and VI were good if you ignore a couple of awkward and uncomfortable scenes.
>>
>>64010861

0/10

Because George only likes mundane dialogue as opposed to character developing humour.

None of them are flawless really, but I don't buy the whole "Han is ruined in jedi" bit. He experienced so much in empire (live, betrayal, suffering) and now he has friends and is depended upon by soldiers and others, of course he's not gonna be the same.

0

>>64008240

5

OT, TFA, and Attack of The Clones
>>
>>64008240
Used to be two but we finally got a third good one.
>>
>>64008240
best 3 are OT.

Thats it.

TFA isnt even a Star Wars movie. Its derivative JJ fanfiction
>>
The originals. The Force Awakens is okay, but so generic and hardly memorable I can't call it better than Return of the Jedi even if it's a more competently assembled production that avoids stupidity like the ewoks. Even though there are considerable portions of Return I'd just as soon skip, there are also parts that I enjoy rewatching. There's nothing in The Force Awakens I really feel the need to see again.

TFA is an overwhelmingly vapid movie.
>>
>>64008240
A New Hope
The Empire Strikes Back
Return of the Jedi
Revenge of the Sith
The Force Awakens

In no particular order
>>
>>64008240
anything except AoTC and TFA is ok.

TFA being the absolute worst shit imaginable for the franchise, which is dead-- lets face the music...
>>
>>64008240
If I recall correctly Luke threw away his green lightsaber when he defeated Vader or am I remembering wrong?

Star Wars: 9.5/10

2 good ones, three middle ones, two bad ones.

Ranking ROTJ, ROTS and TFA is a tough cookie.
>>
>>64008281
the only correct answer.
>>
>>64008240

3.5

A New Hope
The Empire Strikes Back
Return of the Jedi up until they blow up Jabba's barge.
The Force Awakens

this is the only realistic number

basically everything since ESB has been a totally avoidable failure in making a good Star Wars film.
>>
>>64008240
3.5

in the objective, definitive order

empire
anh
tfa
.5 rotj

anything luke related in rotj is literally GOAT. Emperor's throne room was perfect.

Star Wars
The Empire Strikes Back
Return of the Jedi
The Force Awakens

Do the highs of ROTJ really outweigh the lows?

Star Wars is a duology.

Now guess which two movies I mean.

Not that other guy but what the hell is wrong with you? Someone dress up as an ewok and rape you?

2 great, 1 good, 1 middling, 2 shitters.
Don't know about TFA not going to watch it.
>>
>>64015091
By some margin.
>>
>>64008240
Most people will agree with this:

Empire Strikes Back - Excellent
A New Hope - Great
Return of the Jedi - Great
Revenge of the Sith - Good
The Force Awakens - Good
The Phantom Menace - Shit
Attack of the Clones - Shit

This is the best ranking I've seen on here desu

This. The prequels were overall shit but Revenge of the Sith was surprisingly decent. A few changes and it would have been at least equal to Return of the Jedi in quality.

There are 6 good ones and 1 bad one.
>>
>>64010688
7 is defintely good but flawed.
>>
>>64015091
Absolutely. Luke vs Vader and The Emperor is as good as anything in Empire. Jabba's Palace was great because everyone had something to do and it displayed Luke's progression since Empire so well. The space battle is still the best out of all of them. It's not consistent quality like the rest of the OT but it's peaks are very high.
>>
>>64011745
This is mostly correct, but TFA should be 5/10.
>>
>>64010688
>7 isn't flawed.

Are you people brain damaged?

I still like le mary sue meme and le new hope 2.0 meme though.
>>
>>64008281
A New Hope is fucking trash m8. Take off your nostalgia goggles.
>>
>>64015369
Revenge of the Sith is marred by shitty dialogue and worse acting. In broad strokes, sure it's great.
>>
Star Wars > Empire Strikes Back > The Force Awakens > Return of the Jedi >>> [POWER GAP] >>> Revenge of the Sith >>>>>>> Phantom Menace >>>>> Attack of the Clones
>>
>>64011337
Its more about them having to give him something to do for the entire movie.

Han's best contribution in Jedi is giving context to the opening sequence in Jabbas palace and the sail barge.
>>
>>64011743
He throws it away to signal that he wont fight Vader and finally becoming a Jedi - but I don't think it was meant to imply that he done with lightsabers forever, just that this wasn't a fight he could win with physical violence.
>>
6 = AMONG THE BEST MOVIES EVER MADE
5 = AMAZING / SUPERB
4 = GREAT
3 = GOOD
2 = OK / MEH
1 = BAD
0 = HORRIBLE

A New Hope --- 4
The Empire Strikes Back --- low 5
Return of the Jedi --- 4 or low 4
The Phantom Menace --- 2
Attack of the Clones --- 2
Revenge of the Sith --- 2

For contrast...
Star Trek TMP --- 3
Star Trek WOK --- high 4
Star Trek TSFS --- 4
Star Trek TVH --- don't recall but probably 3
Star Trek TFF --- don't recall but probably 2
Star Trek TUC --- high 4
Star Trek Generations --- 2
Star Trek FC --- high 3
Star Trek Insurrection --- low 2 to 1
Star Trek Nemesis --- high 3
Star Trek 09 --- 4
Star Trek Into Darkness --- low 4
>>
>>64008240
Nope. There's only one good star wars movie; the phantom menace.

>Visually spectacular. In fact TPM was nominated for an Oscar in this category.
>Very compelling story and characters. Origin story of Anakin is genius in many ways.
>Excellent cast including Oscar-nominated Liam Neeson and Natalie Portman
>Beautiful, vast and imaginative world with stunning visuals.
>Greatest star wars villain of the whole series; Darth Maul.
>Most epic lightsaber battle of all seven movies.


Under no circumstances will I ever like Jar Jar, but I will accept him as a necessary evil. Because like him or not, Jar Jar is a crucial part of the Star Wars saga. Were it not for Jar Jar's presence on Coruscant in Attack Of The Clones, Palpatine would not have been granted the emergency powers that allowed him to start the Clone Wars.
>>
>>64017074
It must have amused old palpatine to no end to have this barely literate, infantile monstrosity pushing for him to get emergency powers.

4 (OT and 7)+ sheev scenes in RotS
