You mean there are people who haven't spent the entire weekend watching Episode 1 - 3, Rogue One, and Episode 4 - 9 to prepare to end today? XD

The best watching order is episode 4, 5, 6, 2, 3 😄

I like episode order, but I have a friend who argues that the proper order is

  • Ep. 4 A New Hope
  • Ep. 5 The Empire Strikes back
  • Ep. 2 Attack of the Clones
  • Ep. 3 Revenge of the Sith
  • Ep. 6 Return of the Jedi
  • Rogue One: A Star Wars Story
  • Ep. 7 The Force Awakens
  • Solo
  • Ep.8 The Last Jedi
  • Ep. 9 The Rise of Skywalker

He basically says it's Luke's story, so this is the best way to watch it.

Interesting, so one is the only one cut, eh!? 🤔

Yup. It’s the only one that doesn’t really have anything to do with Luke’s story, and everything important is explained in the scroll of Ep 2.

So you're saying episode one is like sand, huh?

Agreed. I like to watch the pod racing, and the Darth Maul fight scene every once in a while, but nevermind the rest.

Yeah, to be honest I do include episode one every time I rewatch them all. But even so, I can't resist making that jibe whenever it comes up 😆.

Oh honestly, I do love it. Love to pick on it, but also love it. ❤️

Why didn't I think of that... I completely wasted my weekend.
