After watching R1’s fanedit “Rise of the Rebellion” a few weeks ago, which cuts around 9 minutes of very tiresome material and the very embarrassing fan-service and weird “NAME THIS PLACE” cards, I’m beginning to reconsider my quite harsh 0/10 to R1 (could be a 3 or 4/10 now, don’t know yet). It’s a bad and boring movie but I’m very fond of the visuals and of the soundtrack, with lots of little good additions here and there (the whills, kyber crystal, Vader’s castle, Tarkin taking full power of the DS, etc.), and overall it looks very good and, at least visually, makes a fine transition between ROTS (which is still a good SW entry in my book) and ANH (still the best SW to date). I might then put TFA at the bottom of my ranking and put R1 just below AOTC.

So, my ranking:

  1. OT
    1.5. CW (2001-2003)
  2. PT
    2.5. TCW (2008-2014) / Rebels (2014-2018)
  3. R1
  4. ST
