Wow, mind explaining your ranking? Legitimately interested if you’d like to share.
Is TPM #1 due to the nostalgic feeling you get from it? Not saying that’s a bad thing, it just makes me curious as the the literal opposite-ending of AOTC if that’s the case. Hope I’m not being presumptious.

Yeah i can explain.

TPM came out when I was around 4. Not only was it the movie though, it was the PlayStation games and the pod racing game and all of that gets wrapped up in my feeling of it as a film whenever I watch it. I know it’s not great but nothing really matches how it makes me feel.

ATOC however wasn’t able to be saved by the marketing machine. I still have fond memories of it but it can’t save how boring it can sometimes be.

As for ANH being 8, well. Like said before the list was not based on the quality of the films just how they make me feel. I really like ANH (obviously) yet I have the least emotional attachment to it as the others.

I hope this makes sense.
