In which order should Star Wars be watched?
 
For someone who's never seen an episode should Star Wars be watched in chronological order or in 4,5,6,1,2,3?

Yes, 456123.

Gsykes:
Star Wars IV - A new hope

Star Wars VI - Return of the Jedi

I really think that watching just 3456 or 4563 is ok, the third one is pretty reasonable despite the lack of plot, and I think you should only watch 1 and 2 if you really want to watch the whole series.

4,5,6,6,5,4

A number of key reveals are ruined if you don't watch 4 5 and 6 first.

For any fantasy book fans, Return of the Jedi is a bit like Lord of Chaos in Wheel of Time. When it came out it sucked, but after we saw what could be done to the series it looked pretty damn good in retrospect.

I truly don't understand why there is so much hate for ROTJ. Is it simply because of the Ewoks? It's a kids' movie, for cripes' sake!

ROTJ has (*** SPOILER ALERT***:



















Luke as total badass Jedi
Coked-up Carrie Fisher in skimpy bikini
Awesome rescue of Han/murder of Jabba
Confirmation of the biggest surprise shock twist in movie history from a dying Yoda
Revelation of another huge surprise (Luke and Leia are twins)
Light cycle chase and battle on Endor, where Luke deflects laser blasts and hacks off the light cycle's stabilizer, which is the coolest thing he does in the trilogy
C-3PO telling the story of the adventure in Ewokese
"I don't know... fly casual."
"It's a trap!"
Semi-botched sabotage of energy field
climactic battle between Luke and Vader, especially Luke's rage after Vader mentions "sister" (one of the greatest scenes in movie history)
Vader's redemption

I mean, come ON. Incredible movie.

Now Episode ONE, that sucked.

4,5,6,1,2,3, and if you have time, throw in the Clone Wars discs between 2 and 3.

I don't think I'll ever get used to it being possible for a 20 year old movie to have a spoiler, but the nature of this thread has it make sense.

But yeah, it's mainly the Ewok thing. It's the first time we really noticed that he was modifying what he had based solely on target audience, and that those changes were not for the best. The Ewoks were, in some ways, a prelude to what he'd do in the "Special Editions" and then the havoc that he'd wreak with episodes 1,2 and 3.

Your argument is well supported, though, in that RotJ had a lot of really cool stuff in it.

Re: In which order should Star Wars be watched?
 
return of the jedi is actually quite good, but I rate A New Hope quite a bit more than the empire strikes back which I think tends to go against the grain.

456123 then watch 5 again and think about how much better the whole series would have been if Lucas let other people write the scripts for 6123

Amen. Don't know what happpen to the other two movies but to say they were disapointing is a gross understatement.

456 then quit.

6 was awesome. The ewoks were silly, yes, but the scenes with the Emperor were incredibly good. The music was awesome. Luke was finally a little less annoying.

There are like 2 or 3 scenes that were kind of bad, but on the whole it was great.

My 8 year old frickin loves the Ewok DVD, asks constantly to watch it.

And there is nothing better than making someone watch the HOliday special with no warning. 10 minutes of Wokkie speak with no Subtitles, Wookie Porn, All the stars coked out of their heads, and wearing enough makeup to have make a drag queen jealous.

Priceless

edit : I think the visuals in 123 are cool, you should just turn off the sound and put on some music.
