Haven't watched Solo yet.

You know Rogue 1 should be higher on my list for the last Vader scene alone...
The Last Jedi ranks at the bottom for me, although I still enjoyed it. As bad as some of the actors were in episodes 1-3, at least a plot was presented. If the CGI today was available back in the late 90's I'm pretty sure episodes 1-3 would be remembered more fondly, but Lucas was trying groundbreaking stuff in the early days of CGI and the technology just wasn't there.

Yes the CGI is a big part of it. Those movies almost have a Who Framed Roger Rabbit vibe at times because only the actors are real.

Now that would be an interesting movie to go back and watch and see how bad it was. I just watched Logan's Run so my mind will probably be blown away by the special effects.

Jessica Rabbit is still hotter than any flesh and blood human extant.
Overall I enjoyed it a lot actually. It was very emotional for me. I teared up quite a few times.
aw, that’s sweet....ya fucking nerd.

Rogue One deserves a high spot for coming back to a saga and ruling out a plot hole that was allowed to live for over 30 years. I find it brilliant that they took one simple line (you have no idea how much trouble we went through to get those plans - but I'm paraphrasing), and built that story around it almost effortlessly. They also didn't cop out and deliver a happy ending.
I'd also put Mandalorian as a whole near the top for me, as it's really exceptionally done.

Agreed. It was also a story where everyone dies. Not one person survived that ordeal so it is a true One Off.
I edited my list because it was really a great movie and needed to be higher so I did.
Still haven't watched the Mandolorian. I need to read up on how much Favreau actually contributes to the SW brand. Maybe he can help write the next trilogy?

Just watched it. The first half was a bit of flurry, racing from planet to planet with little regard for time or the vastness of space. But once it settled down a bit I thought the second half was great. I'd like to see it again.
Empire Strikes Back Return Of The Jedi A New Hope Rogue One Revenge Of The Sith Solo The Force Awakens The Last Jedi Rise Of Skywalker Attack Of The Clones The Phantom Menace
The Mandalorian is awesome. I'm excited for the eventual Obi Wan series and would also love a series based on Solo. That movie is actually pretty decent. Especially cast wise. I feel like it was overlooked due to the market being flooded with SW movies at the time. Overall I wasn't really a huge fan of the sequel trilogy, but those movies were still better than the first couple of the prequel films.

I saw it for the second time two days ago. I noticed something I did not notice the first time I saw it, Leia's body disappears only after Ben dies. This is odd. Usually as soon as any force sensitive being dies they disappear right away. I am wondering why Leia did not. Did she use the force to control Ben?
And that final scene is a bit over the top. It was like one big orgy. Palpatine had an orgasm by shooting lightning into the sky, and there was an orgy of ships in the sky.

Taika Waititi is set to make a Star Wars movie, so there is a new hope!
The new ones where pretty underwhelming (with exception of Rogue One maybe), and last Jedi just sucked big time. So hopefully he will be able to make a good Star Wars movie again.

I really hope that he does something good with it and has a vision going farther than 1 movie.
