If you're a huge Star Wars fan like me, you have your favorite episode along with your least favorite, so I decided to share my ranking of the current 7 Star Wars episodes from the best to the worst.
1. Return of the Jedi
My personal favorite. Anakin was the jedi who returned, Luke and his group of rebels saved the galaxy, and this final scene? A real tear jerker. Plus who doesn't love watching the Emperor get thrown to his death.
2. The Empire Strikes Back
Luke finally found out that Darth Vader was his dad, Han gets frozen into carbonite, Lando makes his debut as well as Boba Fett and we get to see our favorite imperial walkers on Hoth.
3. A New Hope
Darth Vader really makes an entrance, Old Ben is back and it's the first Star Wars movie, come on. Plus the Death Star gets destroyed and we get to see Princess Leia's infamous classic look.
4. Revenge of the Sith
My favorite of the new movies, it gives a lot of information to help figure out many of the questions we have from the original trilogies, but it's not the best. Anakin force chokes Padme who later dies of a broken heart and Obi-Wan practically destroys his apprentice who is like a brother to him. All of the jedi are killed but 2, Yoda and Obi-Wan both go into hiding and yeah...not cool.
5. The Force Awakens
Personally, I was quite impressed with Episode VII as I saw it in theaters 4 times. However, Luke wasn't present nearly as much as we thought he'd be, and Han's death? Can't get over it. The classic characters seemed to have been overshadowed by the new ones and as a fan of the original trilogy, I didn't like that too much.
6. Attack of the Clones
Episode II was a let down in many ways, Anakin is slowly turning to the dark side while continuing his forbidden romance with Padme and his jealousy of Obi-Wan continues to thrive. Count Dooku gets away, many jedi are lost in the Battle of Geonosis and Darth Sidious is gaining more control over the galactic senate.
7. The Phantom Menace
I think all true Star Wars fans can agree that thus far, Episode I is the worst. We have an unnecessary hour of pod-racing and we lose Qui-Gon Jinn but the worst? JarJar Binks...not the best move, George Lucas.
Although I can't give my full and complete analysis of each movie, this gives you the idea. Share your Star Wars movie rankings! And May the Force be With You.
