Interesting take... I'll take a crack at ranking the movies.

I consider the first 4 the real Star Wars films

1. IV- Set up the entire series, and changed cinema and marketing.
2. V- Dark and underappreciated when it was made.
3. VI- Nowhere near as good as IV or V. Vader should looked better when they took his helmet off, not like Elmer Fudd.
4. Rouge One- Great set up to the originals. Gareth Edwards and that writing team should have made all of the Disney Star Wars films. My one complaint is that Forest Whitaker was bad as Saw Gerrera. In general, I think that character could have been much cooler.

This is where things get rough.....

5. Solo- Not a bad story, but the droid/Lando love storyline was creepy. The droid rights agenda was stupid. Disney should leave their social agendas out of the films, and let the audience enjoy being in a galaxy far far away. I think this is a running issue within almost all of the Disney Star Wars films.
6. III- All of the prequels are bad, but at least we learn about Darth Plagueis and how Sidious learned to create Anakin/Darth Vader from the midichlorians.

These 3 are almost unwatchable...

7. I- Young Anakin isn't as annoying as Hayden Christensen's Anakin.
8. VII- It wasn't too far removed from the themes of the original films, but tired too hard to push new character into the series without building substance to them.
9 II- This is the Godfather III of the Star Wars series. It was just terrible. All of the prequels were bad, but this was the worst of the bunch.









Unworthy of consideration...

viii- Nothing about this crap belongs in the Star Wars universe. I saw it at the theater when it was released, and will never watch it again. I will never forgive Disney for this POS.

ix- Have not seen it and probably never will. No one I trust has told me this film fixed what tlj broke.
