A few weeks ago, I posted on here my reactions to Rogue One. And how I have never watched ANYTHING Star Wars related my entire life, but after watching The Mandalorian, I really craved more of the Star Wars universe.Just in case you may have missed my last post talking about this, I AM watching the movies in chronological order. Not release. So, 1-3, Solo, Rogue One, and then the original trilogy. I will do a basic ranking system for these, and hope I’m not condemned by the fandom. But I truly enjoyed the ride, and will be doing rewatched in the future. I am currently watching the newest trilogy, and working my way through The Clone Wars show. Then I will be doing Rebels, and The Bad Batch.Here are my top four in depth rankings as a first time viewer:1.) Rogue One 9.7/10 - One of the best movies in general I’ve seen in a LONG time. Truly showed the horror that was The Death Star. The impending dread unfelt the entire movie was something I haven’t felt in a long time. Almost a perfect movie for me. The action. The set pieces. The characters. The brutality. Just incredible.2.) Revenge of the Sith 9.5/10 - this movie was truly a great one for me. After knowing just from pop culture alone, and growing up in the early 2000’s I knew what would happen. But seeing Anakin slowly evolve into Darth Vader was beautifully done. His love for Padmé. Seeing Obi-Wan heartbroken for killing his friend. Just truly another great movie.3.) Empire Strikes Back 9.4/10 - So, like I said, I’ve had this twist ruined for me for as far as I can remember. I’ve seen it spoofed countless times growing up. But, with that aside, I loved this movie. It was a perfect mix of great storytelling, and action. I really loved the scene of Luke training with Yoda, and just Yoda being a general spaz when he first meets Luke cracked me up. The big reveal to me personally had a lot more impact being with Anakin for 3 movies and being more attached to him as a character. And the opening of the movie just starting with straight up action. Luke getting attacked by a yeti type beast was insane.4.) SOLO 9.1/10 - I watched this before the original trilogy of course. And I am glad I did. You don’t get much about Han otherwise in the original trilogy. I loved this movie, because it dives into his backstory a lot, and you get to learn a lot about him. Made me really appreciate him more as a character in the originals. It was nice seeing a “young” Chewie too. I really loved this movie, and the scene escaping the black hole, and then seeing the huge Star Destroyer was awe inspiring.And now I will only be putting a rating beside the other ones:5.) Attack of the Clones - 9/106.) A New Hope - 8.6/107.) Return of the Jedi - 8.3/108.) The Phantom Menace - 8/10If anyone read this far, thank you. Thank you all for encouraging me to keep watching. I’ve enjoyed every second so far, and will continue my watch through the newer trilogy, The Clone Wars, Rebels, and The Bad Batch.May the force be with you all.EDIT - Really all the downvotes for giving my opinions on the movies?? Was hoping to have a meaningful conversation with die hard fans as a new fan. via /r/StarWars https://ift.tt/3GfsL53
