I know my ranking is not orthodox, but here it is:

  1. ESB (very much above all else)
  2. ANH
  3. TFA (the scenario similarities with episode IV are not a disadvantage for me but a great quality that fully exploit the idea that history repeats cyclically)
  4. TPM (especially for emotional reasons, and for George Lucas’s attempt not to repeat the same film, even if everything is not successful)
  5. ROTS
  6. AOTC
  7. ROTJ (the Ewoks are not acceptable for me)
  8. R1 (original score is awful, CGI-Tarkin is totally failed, the story makes no sense and is pre-arranged, it is the only SW that I have seen only once and that I do not want to see again)

I hope that TLJ will figure in pole position…

[Edit: I forgot R1 in my initial post]
