Re: The Rise of Skywalker

Lol. Now with that being said, it did have its moments. I’m a little sad that comparatively the sequels don’t have the same “big” moment feelings.

Han’s demise.
The Throne room fight.
Babu Frisk.

Ugh, making me think of what’s happened makes me a little sad.

Re: The Rise of Skywalker

What's worrying, is I can remember a whole lot less of the new ones than the crappy prequels. That is saying something.

Re: The Rise of Skywalker

I guess rankings time huh?
Main movies only. No spinoffs.

Re: The Rise of Skywalker

I never said I can remember enough to rank them...

So the 9 films that revolved around Skywalkers?

1. Return of the Jedi

4. Rise of Skywalker
5. Revenge of the Sith
6. A New Hope
7. Phantom Menace
8. Last Jedi
9. Attack of the Clones

Re: The Rise of Skywalker

(I did this without looking at your list to avoid being swayed)

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

Though tbf I kind of rank Return of the Jedi and A New Hope the same, and similarly tied on Last Jedi and Phantom Menace.

I had to list the episode numbers because I forgot what half of them are called... I am obviously really bad at Star Wars.

I ranked Force Awakens lower because it's basically a copy of New Hope and I think it suffered for it. New Hope might not have been as ambitious in terms of special effects, but it felt new and it set the whole saga up.

And Revenge of the Sith had it's better moments, but the whole Padme's ending thing was so bad... And I can't even hear the name without thinking of the "ooh bar" robot with the baby scoop.

Re: The Rise of Skywalker

I normally base my decisions on entertainment value. It’s personal.

If I had to do based on what movie is best, as a film. You’d need to give me a little time.

Re: The Rise of Skywalker

Tbf mine is mostly just based on my enjoyment, and then trying to vaguely explain why films that ranks very similar were then ordered in a specific way.

I assumed you suggested ranking them to spark a discussion.

Re: The Rise of Skywalker

I was hoping you’d put your rankings out. Tbh.

Hold up. I’m no longer a Darth? Yes. Don’t associate me with the dark side.

You only just noticed that? You've been a weapons master for at least a few days now.

Edit: I'm aware you massively just changed the subject.  tongue

Re: The Rise of Skywalker

I was disappointed in this movie

Re: The Rise of Skywalker

We vented our frustration, but its not worth brooding about anymore. The skywalker saga, unfortunately, needed to die out.

Re: The Rise of Skywalker

This is true and with every major member of the Skywalker saga killed off there is no chance of caring it on and ruining past the point that they have with the last 3 movies.

Re: The Rise of Skywalker

I agree it's time for storylines away from the main saga, but will they be brave enough or will they stick to keeping in fan favourites that then end up living for the cameos rather than the new characters?

Re: The Rise of Skywalker

I don't think they will but there is always hope.
