Movies should be watched in the order in which they were made.
Kind of a blanket statement there, one I disagree with. If I ever get a new life and have time to watch a ton of movies in a row, I’m going RO > ANH > ESB > ROTJ > TFA. I’m also going to watch the Hobbit trilogy first and the LOTR trilogy second.
Someone seeing something for the first time is a different situation, I’ll grant that.
Right. While I agree at this point, watching SW after RO works really well, I’m not sure I’d have gotten everything out of it had I not already been really familiar with SW. I would have enjoyed it, no doubt. But certain things, like fully appreciating the cameos of Vader, Tarkin, etc., I think require having seen at least SW if not the OT.
