    I might change my ranking once I'm able to see TROS a second time, but as it stands:

    Tier 1 (aka I enjoy re-watching at any time):
    ESB, ROTJ, ROTS, TFA, Solo

    Tier 2 (I find re-watches very enjoyable, but I don't actively seek them):
    ANH, TPM, TLJ, AOTC

    Tier 3 (I re-watch when going through the movies again, and no other time)
    RO, TROS

    Regardless of the ranking, I get caught up in the magic and wonder of Star Wars when watching all of these movies (although TROS might prove to be the outlier); and I will critique and reevaluate my own feelings each re-watch, no matter the placement.

    Honestly, I'm not crazy about rankings. My rankings look different depending on what I'm ranking them for. Independent film quality? Watchability? Place in the saga?

    but to not be "that guy," here is a single ranking list, trying my best to balance those qualities:

    1. A New Hope 10/10
    2. The Empire Strikes Back 10/10
    3. The Force Awakens 8/10
    4. Return or the Jedi 8/10
    5. Revenge of the Sith 8/10
    6. The Rise of Skywalker 8/10
    7. Rogue One 7/10
    8. Attack of the Clones 5/10
    9. The Phantom Menace 5/10
    10. The Last Jedi 4/10 (well made film on its own but not a great Saga entry)
    11. Solo 2/10 (the culmination of my fears of what Disney would do to Star Wars--not horrible but entirely risk averse, fan-pandering and middle of the road)

    but I really do love them all except Solo, and sometimes I'm more in the mood to watch a movie like AotC or TLJ than Rogue One or Empire.


    Also, for those of you who literally ranked TROS last: are you for serious, or are you just being hyperbolic to express your feelings? I can understand not liking the film, but literally ranking it LAST behind Phantom Menace and Solo? I can literally see no objective way to have that opinion.

    Okay so, here’s a list. I never really think of the ‘a Star Wars stories’ but will find places for them coz everyone else has. This is based on my enjoyment watching all the Star Wars saga films recently in the build up for TROS

    1. Empire strikes back.
    2.The force awakens
    3. A new hope
    4. Return of the Jedi
    5. Rise of Skywalker
    6. Rogue one
    7.Revenge of the Sith
    8.The last Jedi
    9. Solo
    10. The phantom menace
    11. Attack of the clones.

    weirdly the force awakens actually got me the most excited of all the films of the re-watch. I enjoy almost every scene involved (minus the rathtar scenes) and it set up the sequel trillogy in a way that never really delivered for me. Though I do like the end of the characters arcs in TROS they never payed off in the way I hoped in the following two movies. Also enjoyed revenge of the siths final act a lot more than I remembered.

    A lot has happened since the last SW ranking movies when Solo.
    I retrieved the list from then.
    I can't believe I rated Solo just 7'5 (one point was for Maul for sure). After watching it several times, it's been a while I rated 10/10 (cause it's brilliant and for the low ratings that doesn't deserve). Even RO and TFA has changed from 9'99 to 10 :D I have so much fun with this new movies. I can watch it anytime.

    And TROS being number 7 it's just anecdotal. Ratings speak.

    1. A New Hope (10/10)
    2. The Empire Strikes Back (10/10)
    3. Return Of The Jedi (10/10)
    4. The Force Awakens (10/10)
    5. Rogue One (10/10)
    6. Solo (10/10)
    7. The Rise of Skywalker (9/10)

    8. Revenge of the Sith (6'5/10)
    9. Attack of the Clones (6'5/10)
    10. The Phantom Menace (6/10)
    11. The Last Jedi (5/10)

    This puts a lot of things into perspective, from someone who has never read a review or been influenced in anyway by media or friends.
    I should also add he was brought up correctly. First watched the OT from 4 years old onwards just like his father (dad)

    My 11 year old boy.

    1. The Last Jedi
    2. The Rise of Skywalker
    3. The Force Awakens
    4. Revenge of the Sith
    5. The Empire Strikes Back
    6. Return of the Jedi
    7. A New Hope
    8. Attack of the Clones
    9 The Phantom Menace

    At 11 years old I had only the OT to watch and rewatch a thousand times. This generation os kids are so lucky!:D

    I always thought that the little ones had some special conection with TPM. Pod Racer, Jar Jar and the gungans, little Ani and great visuals.

    SOLO might deserve a sequel its polling (at least here) way better than its box office suggests

    Here's mine:

    1. RotJ
    2. ESB
    3.TFA
    4. ANH
    5. Solo
    6. AotC
    7. TROS
    8. Rogue 1
    9. TPM
    10. TLJ
    11. RotS

    In doing this list I realize the gap between 1 and 11 for me is not that wide. I don't dislike Revenge of the Sith (was watching it yesterday in fact) and I think it was the movie with the best lightsaber fights hands down. But its just the movie I liked least overall. Jedi and ESB are close for me my personal bias made me put Jedi as #1 because it was the first Star Wars movie I saw in theaters.
