Best order to watch the Star Wars movies

If someone has never seen Star Wars this is the best order to show them.

A New Hope: Give them the impression Luke's father was a hero. Darth Vader murdered him along with the Jedi and ruined everything throwing the galaxy into fascism.

The Phantom Menace: We see the Jedi in their prime, and we see Luke's father as a little kid with so much potential. It's so vibrant you wonder how everything can go wrong.

Attack of the Clones: We see Luke's father as a hero and as a Jedi. We see him fall in love with Padme. We also see the galaxy pushed into war.

Empire Strikes Back: We see Luke continue the struggle against the Empire. He is instructed by Yoda. He faces off against Darth Vader the man who killed his father only to find out he IS his father.

Revenge of the Sith: We find out why Anakin turned to the dark side and how he became Darth Vader.

Return of the Jedi: And now we can see the final confrontation as Luke tried to redeem his father.

1. star wars (1977)
2. empire strikes back (1980)
3. return of the jedi (1983)

Despecialized Star Wars
Despecialized Empire Strikes Back
Despecialized Return of the Jedi

AND NOTHING FUCKING ELSE

This.

The best order is to go into it knowing that it is a mockery of Dune.
And that the Skywalker and Atreides lineage is based on the Massylii tribe and how it is the "lost" lineage of David/Israel

First watch Ewok Caravan of Courage, followed by Stars Wars the Clone Wars (2003) Volume 2, next watch Rogue One, this is important you have to play Star Wars Starfighter, followed by watching Solo: A Star Wars Story, then watch the Star Wars Holiday Special. It's important that you watch Attack of the Clones after this, but not before pausing at Kamino so you can watch Star Wars Acolyte. Once you pop AOTC back in be sure to put Return of the Jedi on in the background. When the Redi Rocks number starts playing you need to star playing The Last Jedi simultaneously. Follow that up with Clone Wars 2008 the series, then watch the film. Watch A New Hope and then the Phantom menace. Listen to thr Chrismas in the Stars Album. When it gets to "What do you get a wookiee for christmas" start watching The Empire Strikes back. Follow up with Revenge of the Sith, Rogue One again, and then Ahsoka. Next you'll need to watch the Droids animated series. Rise of the Skywalkers is next but only if you haven't watched The Force Awakens in which case watch Andor. Finally finish everything off with Ewoks the battle for Endor.

you can just watch 4K 35mm scans of all the original versions instead of "despecialized" edits of the special editions.

holy schizo watch order

lol this is truly the vaxxed order of viewing

So the entire Star Wars was an Ewok weed trip?

1,2,3,4,5,6 :)

The best order is to go into it knowing that it is a mockery of Dune.

They have almost nothing in common, even if you think Frank Herbert gets total dominion over the concept of a "desert planet" for all time.

They are both an attempt at covering/spoofing the story of Juba II and his lineage without directly pissing off any one belief system.
Both of the franchises are very clear on him (Anakin/Paul) being "The Messiah" though, because he was literally the heir of the Massylii. You can see for yourself why these two men resorted to creating their own canon rather than making a direct biography in the style of a historical blockbuster.
(religious nutjobs are just as deranged as popculture superfans)

Character get's Lights Saber

Is suddenly stronger

Why? Aren't they just sword?

Anakin

Why did George Lucas only start ripping off Dune 22 years after the first Star Wars movie came out

NTA but

Desert planet

Spice mining

Galactic empire is actually run by an evil old dude

Darth Vader is Lukes father like the Baron is Pauls grandfather (Enemy is actually your family)

Jedi and Bene Gesserit

Using your voice to control others

It's not plagiarism, but more a clear inspiration which which pissed Herbert of because he was a piece of shit who even his kids hated and also he was jealous since his Dune movies were stuck in development hell at the time for over a decade.

Jar jar Abrams was a good nickname but anti-intellectualism is so ubiquitous now that people actually like jar jar so it’s a favorable nick name anyways ANH ESB & ROTJ are the only good StarWars movies and your a gay restated if you think otherwise

1-6 is the correct order. It's the order Lucas intended, and he altered 4-6 to make this viewing order optimal. The entire point of replacing Anakin in the ending is 6 is that you're supposed to be very emotional because you watched Revenge of the Sith.

Found the anti-intellectual
MEESA DARTH JAR JAR GONNA TURN ANNI TO DA DARK SIDE

The Special edition of Empire isn't bad, they mostly just add windows to Cloud City, and replaced Frog Emperor with Ian McDiarmid. Could be worse. Star Wars (1977) was absolutely destroyed, however.

i would go 6 2 4 5 1 3

Holy esl, Batman!

The Jedi and Bene Gesserit are both based on the relation between the lunar priesthoods of anatolia, and the solar priesthoods of Egypt, because Israel itself was the result of a marriage between the two.
The Zabrak species and Harkonnens are based on the phoenecian-mutt priesthood of Zadok, whom worshipped the... black sun... (a reference to the dim/spiritual light of the moon)
if you think I'm pulling this from my ass then you have little faith in both George and Herberts knowledge.
the insane ages of old biblical patriarchs are numbered in lunar months, because the mesopotamian rivers followed a lunar calendar

Padishah Emperor Shaddam IV had the body of a man in his 30s from consuming vast quantities of spice, he wasn't a decrepit old guy like Sheev (or Jose Ferrer or Christopher Walken)
Anyway I think the differences (that spice mining is completely irrelevant to the plot of Star Wars, that the Bene Gesserit sisterhood is an all-female shadow government with a secret breeding program and not warrior monk cops, that Darth Vader is morally conflicted between his son and the Dark Side, and doesn't just want to rape him like Vlad wants to do with all of his underage male relatives, that the Voice is just extremely persuasive speech and doesn't mean you can pick things up with your mind) are significant enough to say that the minor parallels aren't really very significant, no matter what Frank got mad about. He sure didn't seem too mad when Lynch went with the Weirding Way being shouting-powered blaster guns instead of kung fu.

You're obsessing about in-canon details when discussing real world inspiration. You are bluepilled by the very media that you consume.

I didn't read your post, but I noticed that you have the prequel trilogy in your picture. Just watch the original 3 movies and nothing else. You're welcome.

I’m so glad the majority of us have come to this opinion

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 2019 4k is how I showed my sis and dad

my sister rated the movies

7/10
8/10
10/10
5/10
8/10
7.5/10

Seething boomers and buttthurt gen X manbabies

I was born 2001

If you read enough dune books you get to the secret jews and space rabbis. But you gotta read a lot of dune books.
This is the gods honest truth.

Best order to watch Starshit: Don't.
Stop watching Starshit.

DUNE is biblical realpolitik for 35 year old theaterkid basedjaks
and StarWars is biblical realpolitik for 12 year olds.
Modern Star Wars and Dune have morphed into a new thing;
Cashcows

A shit lord?

4-5-6, og version only
that's all
the rest is shit and doesn't exist. Nobody ever liked that shit

So in the end who's right?

The only real options are

4, 5, 6, 1, 2, 3 (how I watched it growing up, t. born in '96)

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 (how zoomers now probably grew up watching it)

4, 5, 1, 2, 3, 6 (hot take: how it should be watched for people under a rock that don't even know Vader is Luke's father)

For anyone all-in on the franchise wanting to watch all movies and TV shows (minus the sequels), the complete chronological order is the best choice, if you're willing to do things like pause ROTS to watch the final episodes of TCW and other silly things.

Including prequelcrap at all

lololololol

Ep3 - > Ep4

That would be enough.
