What is the best Star Wars movie?

The real question is whether the sequels are worse than the Hobbit movies.

Both are stupid, but the sequels at least had some fan service jokes that sorta landed the first go through. On the other hand, the sequels felt very, very lazy. The Hobbit movies tried and failed badly, but you don't get the sense that they despised the viewer for even being there.


I think, generally, this is an interesting question. I love the Peter Jackson Kong and LotR films. Not a "huge" fan of The Hobbit films but I still appreciate and enjoy them. I feel that the un-needed additions to the hobbit movies are less obnoxious than the discontinuity in the Star Wars sequels. And if you disagree, you are free to your wrong opinion.

First time? Once wasn't enough?

I confess, though, I did watch The Rise of Rey twice but that's mostly because I thought some of the things I thought I saw in the movie were a result of heavy drinking but, no, it was all actually in the movie.

Say what you will about Lucasfilm, but if they hadn't ****ed up the initial production of Rogue One, then they wouldn't have brought Tony Gilroy in to fix it. It's possible they wouldn't have taken his Andor pitch seriously.

Just goes to show that if you throw major Hollywood money at enough projects, one of them might turn out good.
