Order of release, of course.

They enjoyed each film, including the prequels. When I asked the ranking, ST mostly scored lower than PT.

This is evidence that the prequel hate is just a trend. Hive mind, propaganda, anti-hype, bandwagon, brain wash.

Well I mean for reference, the people I watched were a woman in her 20s and another woman in her 60s.

20s woman really gets into movies no matter what film. 60s woman is a casual theater goer.

They both liked the ST.

My dad's a casual, and he likes PT More than OT and ST. I think a lot of people enjoyed PT but are afraid to admit it.

Then again my friend watched all of them for the first time a few years ago leading up to TFA, and TFA was by far his favorite of the bunch.

any chance that these women enjoyed the PTs due to the love story between Padme and Anakin?

20s woman ranked episode 2 last for Anakin's creepiness.

It's evidence your friends are moronic puddles of goop pretending to be human beings.

Never cared much to compare the trilogies or take Star Wars too serious.

I just enjoy them for what they are.... eye candy.

Haven't seen RoS. But if I was gonna go home right now and watch any Star Wars movie, it would be Revenge Of The Sith.

Return of the Jedi is a great kids' movie.

And I guess maybe the droids in the factory scene in AotC could have earned it some brownie points in her eyes.

I love the part where it was unconscious.

It's hilarious to begin with but that just pushes it over the top.

20s woman ranking was

4 > 3 > 6 > 8 > 1 > 9 > 5 > 7 > 2

IIRC, she really liked ANH. Loved the obi vs Ani aspect of RotS. Loved Ewoks from RotJ. Was really into Reylo during TLJ. Thought TPM was thrilling. Enjoyed TRoS. Somehow thought TESB was a little boring. Definitely thought TFA was boring. Makes fun of AotC "sorry milady" line a lot.

Yes I love it. 20s woman keeps on repeating lines as if they were memes. It's actually quite hilarious. And me being a huge star wars nerd makes me feel proud that I converted a new fan

If you tell them she died from a broken heart they'll be deathly afraid of relationships.

I guess that's one reason they have those ratings. PG-13 seems a little generous though lol.

Well my gf ranked it like this.

Empire strikes back 9/10
New Hope 8.5/10
Return of the Jedi 8/10
The Force Awakens 8/10
Revenge of the sith 7.5/10
Phantom Menace 5/10
Attack of the clones -1/10

Only thing I'd change about her list is TFA and Revenge of the sith, everything else is accurate imo.

We are going to watch Last Jedi soon.

You should watch the prequels again. They were fun in theater, but the loud haters made people dump them for little reason.

Watched the PT and OT recently.

I have a newfound respect for ep 3 but 1 and 2 are trash.

6 is not as good as I remember

Anyone who tells you they hated everything about anything is trolling. But a cool scene or neat worldbuilding doesn't make them good movies.
