Ranking the Star Wars films — Page 62

9. Rogue One: 0/10

I don’t even have to see the movie to know this is complete BS.

On one hand I feel like it’s a bit early to give a final verdict on Rogue One given how I’ve only seen it once, and it hasn’t even been a week… but meh. I’ll try anyway.

1. The Empire Strikes Back
2. Star Wars/A New Hope
3. Rogue One
4. Return of the Jedi
5. The Force Awakens
6. Revenge of the Sith
7. The Phantom Menace
8. Attack of the Clones

I feel like Rogue One kinda beats TFA by default simply because it’s something new, and while I like Jedi it has a bit too many obvious pacing- and tone problems for me to consider it among the absolute best. So yeah, my feelings might change down the line but for now, I consider Rogue One the best SW movie since Empire.

Rogue One: tells story explained in first minute of 40 year old movie = something new

Yeah, I can’t take that guy seriously anymore.

Has he given Jyn Erso a silly nickname yet?

Probably something penis-related.

Felicity Jones… now there’s a squirrel face if Mala ever saw one.

^ALLOL!

It’s funny how we share the same ranking and the same grades, at the exception of the Disney “body snatcher” era. That’s really what bugs me. I don’t know what’s going on with this Rogue One madness. I can even understand the buzz for episode 7 which has a few good things (and a marvellous Williams score; especially compared to the flat Giacchino’s effort), but R1 is such a mess I couldn’t even find one good point. I wonder what you will really think of it in a few years when the hype is down, when you’re older. Anyway, you’re lucky to love it.

edit: oh you’ve answered to me on the R1 topic. Well, your a nice guy Darth. That refreshing not getting insulted for not loving a movie.

I can’t believe I live in a world in which there are enough good Star Wars films that I can have ROTJ be 5TH on my list. That’s pretty mind blowing.

Swap ROTS with TPM and (maybe) SW with ESB and that’s my ranking and reaction exactly.

I saw a snippet of the whole “No, it’s because I’m so in love with you” scene and I’m starting to regret putting ROTS > TPM

When it comes to comparing The Force Awakens and Rogue One, it comes down to the characters. Rogue One has superior action and a more original story but Force Awakens has such endearing characters. Rey, Finn, Poe, and Kylo Ren are just amazing characters who I fell in love with and learned a surprisingly amount about (Rey and Finn, specifically). In Rogue One, I found Cassian and K2SO to be the only characters who could even compete with what Force Awakens gave me. I know a lot of people disliked Cassian, but I really appreciated his arc. Overall, I am VERY satisfied with what Disney has done so far. I will be there opening night for episode 8 with much excitement 😃

Nicely said man! I think they should have cut out Magic Stick Man and the other two lesser characters and just focused on Cassian, Jyn and K2S0. Not only would their dynamic be stronger it would also give these characters more time to be fleshed out. We could have walked away with a Jyn and Cassian that are as layered as Rey and Kylo. This is a sad turn of events because I want to like Rogue One a lot more than I do but I mostly watch Star Wars for the characters and that isn’t on point there is a threshold of enjoyment I can’t cross.

Nope

It’s not that your opinion was dissenting, but 0/10 is somewhat hyperbolic.

Somewhat?

It’s frevious-level hyperbolicnessishism.

I’m sorry to see you still are making the same post over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.
