The only Star Wars I dislike are the Holiday & Ewok specials and the two pre-TPM cartoon shows. Beyond that, Star Wars is Star Wars. I may not watch it all, but it’s all valid.

Each trilogy has its positives and negatives.

• The Sequels have the best visual effects, but forgettable music and spotty writing
• The Prequels have the best action and music, but the visuals have aged poorly and the writing’s awful
• The Originals have the best writing and an amazing score, but not having seen the Theatrical versions, I can only judge based on the versions I’ve seen. (I do have the Despecialized Trilogy, but haven’t watched them yet).

Looking over my Letterboxd ranking of the movies, it seems that I enjoy the Sequels, Anthology, and Original Trilogy more.

I will admit, I was disappointed that Luke’s Jedi Order didn’t last and that the New Republic was destroyed so quickly, but I would genuinely prefer this over having no Sequel Era at all. Currently, I’m actually working on my own Sequel Era project that takes the best of Legends and Canon along with my own ideas.

Every movie in the trilogy had something I loved.

• TFA: The Resistance entrance at Takodana, Poe’s kill streak, Han trying Chewie’s bowcaster
• TLJ: Leia’s spacewalk, everything in Snoke’s throne room, the Holdo Maneuver, “Luke” vs. Kylo on Crait
• TROS: Rey attacking Kylo’s fighter, Lightspeed skipping, the galactic everyone fleet, Ben turning good, the voices of the Jedi, Rey Skywalker
