RANKING The Star Wars Universe!?!! | The Gradient Show #7 

My movie ranking - ROTS > TROTJ > TLJ > TESB > Rogue One > TFA > ANH > Solo >AOTC > TROS > TPM Revenge of the Sith is the best of the prequels hands down with Obi Wwan vs Anakin surpassing the Darth Maul fight as a spectacle. While the fall of Skywalker was shown more in the Clone Wars series it should have been conveyed more satisfactorily in film. That era would have been a stronger set of films if Attack of the Clones were the starting point. The originals are a classic set of films but although Return of the Jedi is my fav for its conclusion in Anakin's redemption along with its strong heist-like rescue of Han Solo scene the trilogy had its obvious rehashing problem with the second Death Star act and unnecessary family relation twist with Leia (-c- ) I liked Luke in black but I never believed he'd turn. Honestly, he became a way more interesting character in The Last Jedi for me as that potential fall was a lot closer to fruition. The sequels get the prequel hate for now but I do like its characters as Kylo Ren was the standout and I loved the new elements to the Force such as the way it sounds when used and the dyad connection with Rey. She gets called a Mary Sue but Luke would have to be the same to accomplish what he did if he wasn't Vader's kid because without that bond he'd be dead in ep. 5 (- ^ ) Her being a Palpatine was just as unneeded as the character was stronger as a nobody but finding a family. Poe was cool as he was but Finn could have easily been the Jedi protagonist yet, it's funny how John Boyega got the real-life moment a few years back that his character was supposed to have within the Duel of the Fates script rallying defected Storm Troopers with a passionate speech. The EU is still largely superior but the new stuff like the Mandalorian and Andor were stellar surprises. The Acolyte as the newest at this time is more than fine by me though it's being called "Not Star Wars" by some fans. The franchise isn't perfect but I tend to enjoy all of it (-_^ )
