1.) TESB - The darkest and deepest film. I don't really need to explain this.
2.) ANH - We would all love Star Wars even if this was the only film. 'Nuff said.
3.) ROTJ - Jabba scenes, death of Yoda, and the final battle outweigh Ewoks and the beginning of Lucas's downfall.
4.) TPM - Qui Gon and Darth Maul are fantastic. I still feel sad at the death of Qui Gon, maybe the only time I care about a character in the PT. Jake Lloyd, against all odds, the best Anakin in the PT (not saying much).
5.) AOTC - Rubbish, but didn't need to be as good as III had to be.
6.) ROTS - Maybe the most important film of the saga. Fails at all major/important plot tie-ups. Anakin's turn to Dark Side utterly unconvincing.

From my point of view we're only dealing with the small differences between varying levels of crappiness. It's not like I'm putting AOTC on any pedestal...they both stink.

I rated ROTS so low because this was the film that had all of the most important plot points of the prequel trilogy. Plus it had the added responsibility of tying the two trilogies together. It failed, utterly, in almost every one of these aspects.

Finally! Someone in this forum that I can side with! hahaha
Allthough I do like Return more that 7/10 that's for sure...

After some thought I changed ROTJ to 8 out of 10. In hindsight it was ridiculous to say that ROTJ is worse than TESB by the same amount that TPM is worse than ROTJ...if that makes sense.

I corrected things by putting a little more distance between the OOT and PT.
