lawnboy1977 Posted November 16, 2005 Author Share Posted November 16, 2005 Do yourself a favor and watch them in the order they were released, starting with Episode IV (New Hope). If you watch Episode I first, you might not even want to watch the rest of the series, which would be a shame because the original trilogy was good. CW 505121[/snapback] This is a major argument now among us star wars geeks. I would say for the full experience, you have to watch it starting with Episode I, Phantom menace, then clones, then sith, then go to the OT. New Hope, Empire and Jedi. If you have not watched the originals yet, this will be a great way to see the story from beginning to end. Watching the original str wars, ANH, after having seen Sith puts everything in a whole new light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverNRed Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 The best way to watch the Star Wars movies is as follows: Star Wars Empire Strikes Back Return of the Jedi (pizza break) Revenge of the Sith the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverNRed Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 I can see that, but wouldn't it make sense to watch Sith, then the originals? 505142[/snapback] I thought the last hour of Sith was more powerful because I knew what happened after Sidious/Vader succeeded. Plus the ending with the twin suns on Tatooine brought everything full circle (from SW to Sith). George Lucas basically shot himself in the foot with ROTS because it showed he could make a really great Star Wars prequel, which made the other two (lousy) prequels even less excusible.

That, and the original three are so much better than the most recent three (although Sith was good, after the first 20 minutes anyway). CW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aussiew Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 Well, now I'm really having a blonde moment. I'm surprised that there would be so many different opinions on what order to watch them in. OK. I want to watch them in chronological order of the actual events, not the release dates. Can we start over - I'm confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can we start over - I'm confused. 505189[/snapback] ok, its simple If you want chronological order of the movie events, then go like this: Eipsode I: The Phantom Menace Episode II: Attack of the Clones Episode III: Revenge of the Sith Episode IV: Star Wars: A New Hope Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back Episode VI: Return of the Jedi Notes: in the movie timeline, there are 10 yrs between eps I and II, a few yrs between Eps II and II, about 20 years between eps III and IV, about 5 yrs between eps IV and V, and a few months between eps V and VI I'd invite you over to watch them with me, but my girl tends to react negatively toward me bringing other girls over, especially blonde ones If you want order of theatrical release, go Ep IV (1977), Ep V (1980), Ep VI (1983), Ep I (1999), Ep II (2002), Ep III (2005) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figured it out when I saw Triumph the Dog holding the burrito appetizer tray. These TSW women are hard, trust me. Cable will put you over the edge, and Lori is just too damn smart. Gotta love their webcams, though. Just make sure you don't accidentally click on the Crap Throwing Monkey. It's actually frightening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverNRed Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 And while you're discussing this, I'm putting cologne on for my date with Mandy Moore. Wearing a killer tie, too. 505161[/snapback] Go ahead. Dress up. Put on your cologne. Hold the door open for her. If she's like most pretty girls in their early 20's, she'll run away screaming. Meanwhile, here on day 458 of preparation for the day I meet her, my plans of dressing like a slob and bringing a switchblade on our first date are looking pretty good. I may also eat with my hands and fake illiteracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gross Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 Yeah, if you watch I-III before IV-VI then ep. V won't seem as much of a "surprise" (if you've been living in a cave for the past twenty-some-odd years ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CW 505178[/snapback] It may take away from some of the suspense of empire, "I am your father", but it really does add to the storyline so much more and you look at them is such a different way. I think there are some people who never want to look at Vader as nothing more than this horrible monster who kills people from the day he was born. I love the storyline buildup in all six films. You can see how there are things that happen in EP I that affect what happens in EP VI. The storytelling aspect of the saga is unlike any other, something I think some people forget.
