Star Wars

[Cecilia]

So, which are the best; the older Star Wars movies(IV, V, VI), or the newer ones(I, II, III)?

Also, which one particular Star Wars episode/film is your favourite?
And which is your LEAST favourite?

[Araciel]

i could write an entire essay on this subject...but

the original trilogy, because the storyline of the new trilogy seems too rushed and haphazard to me, though the effects are obviously so much better, and the fights more exciting.

best episode? empire. hands down

worst? revenge.

[Tifa's Real Lover(really]

older ones =/ but i like the new ones just as much

[Brennan]

Old ones, favorite: VI

[Odaisé Gaelach]

Alas, I've yet to see any of the Star Wars films...

[I Took the Red Pill]

The old ones are much better, A New Hope being my favorite. Attack of the Clones was easily the worst of the saga for me.

[Kirobaito]

The older ones are better, and not just because they're older. The storylines are better and there is better acting. And you don't know the endings.

The best episode is The Empire Strikes Back. This is not up for discussion. Nor is the fact that Attack of the Clones is the worst one.

Agreed. Empire Strikes Back is not only the best in the series, it's an absolutely amazing movie in its own right. Seriously one of the best ever.

My friends and I had a Star Wars marathon just a couple days ago. We watched all six movies in a row.

[Ryth]

Older ones, of course. Empire Strikes Back probably being the best. Episode I is also easily the tiest movie in the series.

[Ishin Ookami]

I rather enjoy episode IV myself. But yes, Empire strikes back is the best in the series, followed closely by revenge of the sith. I don't know why so many people hate on ROTS, maybe because after the jar jar binks and little annie show that was Phantom Menace, and the worst romantic sequences ever in Attack of the Clones, it was considered cool to hate on the third before it even got released. I think it redeemed the prequels cuz hey, it showed that Anakin and Obi-Wan actually had respect for eachother, something Episode II failed to do, and the final fight between them was made very tragic. Granted their friendship should have been shown in Episode II, instead of the I'm a Jedi master dick/I'm a bratty choosen one, antagonistic relationship that Part II showed. Episode II also really kicked into gear once the the whole, executive order 66 thing kicked in, and I personally liked how Palpatine was such a effen scheming snake. It had it's flaws, but it still ended up a pretty good film.

As for worst, Phantom Menace. I mean c'mon, AOTC had plenty wrong with it, but TPM was just gawd awful, redeemed only by the Darth Maul confrontation.

[Zante]

I prefer the new ones, they are much cooler in my opinion. The effects and fighting are much better. The old ones are great, but they just can't hold up to the newer trilogy.

[starseeker]

The original trilogy is much better than the newer films. They didn't rely on flashy special effects, but on the acting and storyline.

[Rengori]

In the order you asked: Original, IV, and I.

[Quindiana Jones]

Older ones fo' sho'. I love 'em all, but the older ones were waaaaay ahead of their time, whereas the new ones were just films.

[Swan]

Revenge of the Sith is the outright best, being almost twice as good as some of the others. But, I can't say that the new trilogy is the best with fairly weak episodes like I & 2.

None of the older ones are really that amazing (out of the Star Wars movies that is. Star wars in itself is amazing), but they are consistently entertaining and therefore I'd go the old ones over new.

Revenge of the Sith

Daylight

Return of the Jedi
Empire Strikes Back
A new Hope
Attack of the Clones
The Phantom Menace (not nesscarrily bad, just beaten by better films)
