I’d be open to presenting the story thus far for a newcomer as:
Rogue One, 4, 5, 1, 2, 3, 6, 7
yeah almost like my machete order, but i take off TPM, they introduce the characters again in the AotC anyway, maybe we loose the reveal that Anakin’s mother is a captive slave on Tatooine but we get it in AtoC and TrofS.
mine is: R1, SW, ESB, AotC, TrofS, TrofJ and TFA (R1,4,5,2,3,6, and 7)
