Reminder: If you think Phantom Menace is better than Attack of the Clones, you have little to no understanding of film and it's structure and need to be educated or find a new interest.

The prequels were much better written, they had actual characters and story, not a bunch of memes and one-liners that lack any emotion or coherence. Luke is a cliched everyboy "hero" that goes through an absurdly rapid transformation between the fifth and the sixth episodes. Anakin's emotional instability and his exposure as a psychopath are gripping; and his doomed relationship with Padme is touching. In the "original trilogy" Han, Leia, Darth Vader and Obi Wan are complete meme characters, nothing about them is remotely believable or human. And why doesn't anyone care about deaths in those movies? Leia's planet destruction, Luke's stepparents' death, all of the blown up rebels--the list could go on--all the deaths are forgotten moments later.

As for direction, the movies from the "original trilogy" were mostly incoherent, badly edited and full of logical problems. The prequel trilogy is a work of a "vulgar auteur".

I feel neutral about the series overall, and honestly don't care about trolling or contrarianism. Here are my sincere rankings:

1. "Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones"
2. "Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace"
3. "Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith"
4. "Star Wars"
5. "The Empire Strikes Back"
6. "Return of the Jedi"
>>
>>63691127
I agree. I guess I was young enough when I watched it that I got a kick out of the ewoks.

Great way to end the trilogy though to be quite frank with you family member.

Trick question, they are all shit

Episode 5 is def the best

You already know it because of social media memes
>star wars 4
George Lucas is the master of oversimplification. All the characters in Star Wars are terribly black and white and not a single one even remotely leans towards the second dimension. The cheap trick to use plain text as exposition for the upcoming events is a slap in the face of cinema. The entire purpose of film is to convey stories through dialogue and images.Lucas doesn't get that.His writing skills are pre-school.
>star wars 5
The most over rated movie of all time. Pseudo nerds will have you believing that george lucas ruined this movie that was once so great even though they probably didnt even see the original version until after the new ones came out. You can find these geek posers at your local comic cons repeating everything plinkett says wearing there han shot first shirt thinking they sound like they know what there talking about, but take it from me these movies are on par with bollywood scifi shit dont waste your time.
>star wars 6
Let's see, for an adventure, the pacing is mostly off, with lots of periods where nothing happens, and even the action scenes are nothing special. The plot also seems fairly contrived. Say, since this is the final battle between good and evil and all that, the emperor's preparations seem fairly rushed. You'd expect more care to have been taken in keeping that shield intact, for example. Also, since his grand scheme is to turn Luke Skywalker to the dark side of the force, isn't he trying to kill him too soon after Luke offers some resistance?

Return of the Jedi is the best clearly! Then comes Empire Strikes back. The final battle with Luke and Vader and then the destruction of the Emperor fulfilling the prophecy about bringing balance to the force. Can't be matched.

VI >= V > III > IV >>>II >> I

I find the jabba palace sequence great enough to make up for the ewoks and odd pacing of other shit, although Empire is the GOAT star wars film in terms of dialogue overall.

While 4 tells its story better than 3 and certainly has better acting and less stilted dialogue, I felt as though ROTS was a more interesting narrative with a more compelling setting both chronologically and in terms of the style of locations used.
>>
>>63691564
I agree with this. Empire is sort of overrated, it's pacing is pretty poor in the middle. Also, people shit on Clones but Phantom Menace is a fucking chore to sit through.

Agreed, RoTJ is great imo
>>
>>63691097
All of the prequels, especially III.
I don't really care about the OT, but the prequels are so fucking shit they hold a special place in my heart. They are worse than the OT is good, and I fucking love it.

Switch 5 and 6 and we have an agreement
>>
>>63691097
I try to remain open minded and find something to enjoy about all of them.
Example, EP1:
Pod race, duel with Maul, um, and that's all...
EP2 was okay, but I really hated the hammy acting and the cheesy attempt at a love story.

I think over all, it's really a spectacle, with some mythology in the background.
The characters, most of them, are fillers.

No thanks

It's Empire

III is my number 1. Original were shit. Shit effects, worse actors. Cringe worthy dialogue. Dune held up 100x better.

I would've played into that till you said that

>>63691127
My nigga. I love all of the original trilogy, but Jedi's always been my favorite for the reasons above. Plus, the Ewoks have never bothered me since the series had silly shit in it since A New Hope.

I recognize that IV is a better movie than VI, but there's a lot of stuff I like about VI on a purely visual level.

not going to watch : 7

I don't get how so many people can rate I worse than II.

I had some annoying characters and bad acting, but a lot of solid action.

II is like, all annoying characters and bad acting.

This is objectively right, unless you want to laugh at memes and how cheesy they are then 3 is the best with 2 a close second.

RotS was dreadful, and your judgement has been clouded by the memes.

ESB obviously, but RotJ is even better at times.
However - Ewoks.

Why does everyone hate Ewoks here? There is literally nothing wrong with them.
>>
>>63698642
It doesn't make sense for them to beat the best soldiers of the empire.
>>
>>63698678

>beat

until chewie steals the atst, most scenes of them are ewoks getting slaughtered, and fruitlessly trying to destroy atsts


if i got to change ROTJ the ewoks would stay, i would just add even more of these scenes to make it clearly obvious the natives are getting slaughtered
>>
I wasn't a fan of the ewoks. Pretty pointless I felt. They were just meant to be fun cute creatures but I could've done without them.
