What the hell kind of ranking system is 7-13? Also, a lot of folks have done complete rankings in the “Rate TFA” thread. But meh, what the hell, I’ll do it.

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

Of course, I haven’t lived with TFA nearly long enough to be sure about its placement yet, but (as I’ve said elsewhere) I think that for all its faults, its spark and vitality give it an edge over ROTJ. And ROTS and AOTC are so close that the distinction is pretty meaningless, except AOTC had the droid factory scene and subsequent 3PO/battle droid mashup debacle (which I consider to be the point when GL completely abandoned all pretense of even trying to make proper Star Wars movies), so it gets the bottom slot officially.
