9. Star Wars Holiday Special
We don't talk about this. Ever.
8. Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones
So basically this one was not that good because it didn't really establish much besides Anakin and Padme's relationship. Yes, it is an important relationship, but it did need all of the extra stuff. Though I won't deny that the arena scene where Anakin, Obi-Wan, and Padme were chained to those poles. That was so badass.
7. Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens
Okay, please don't hate me for this. Yes, I loved this movie but it was just way too much like A New Hope. It was almost as if they just changed the characters around and hardly changed the script. I loved the scene of Han and his son, Ben Solo (Kylo Ren) on the walkway. There are many theories behind why he was killed off, please read some. They are awesome. The reunion of Han and Leia was also very important because that is the last time they will ever see each other and OUR ORIGINAL OTP IS GONE AND WE ARE SO SAD!!
6. Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace
This was not a bad movie but it also could have been done a lot better. The whole Darth Maul fight scene being the most action in this whole movie. It was just very slow and boring at parts. This movie was very important to explaining the origin of the Skywalker family. Another reason this movie wasn't that great: Jar Jar. Why did they PUT THEM IN THE STAR WARS UNIVERSE I DON'T UNDERSTAND!
5. Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith
Revenge of the Sith was brutal and full of surprises. Though we did see Padme getting killed at the hands of Anakin. The betrayal between Obi-Wan and Anakin was heartwrenching. One of my favorites but it was just really really violent for a Star Wars movie.
4. Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi
The last four on the list are my all time favorites. In RotJ we see the complete change of heart by Darth Vader (Anakin Skywalker) by him killing his master, Emporer Palpatine and showing affection towards his son, Luke. We see the war being ended and a celebration at the end of the movie. Leia tells Han the Vader is her father and that Luke is her brother which eventually leads to them getting married and having a kid, Ben Solo (Kylo Ren).
3. Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope
The original Star Wars movie is an all time favorite of any fan of these movies. We see the beginning of such an amazing fandom from this movie. Luke Skywalker is a Jedi in training under an old Obi-Wan Kenobi who is slain at the hands of Darth Vader, leaving Luke as the only Jedi left.
2. Rogue One: A Star Wars Story
Reason why this is number 2? This Darth Vader scene. That's why. And the amazing CGIed Tarkin and Leia. And because we finally got just a war movie and not something centered around the Jedi and their training.
1. Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back
Well first of all its the best one because of all the Han and Leia. "I love you" "I know" so iconic.. This movie also reveals that LUKE IS VADER'S SON OMG!!! Also, Han getting frozen is super cool, even though he was originally supposed to be killed off then (thank God he wasn't).
