Funny thing is... In the now nuked canon that is Star Wars Legends, Palpatine WAS brought back. That thing about Darth Plaeguis being able to save anyone but himself? Yeah. Palpatine DID save himself- made his consciousness inhabit clones of himself, prepared for such an occasion. He also had Force Lightning of the scale shown in Rise of Skywalker- even greater, still. Old Star Wars comics are just dope like that. Bringing palpi back was not the problem with rise of skywalker: the sequel trilogy existing at all as a medium to push an agenda, rather than a genuine attempt to tell a Star Wars story, was the problem with it and the entire sequel trilogy.

[@Recrivious]

Christopher Lee as Count Dooku carrying attack of the clones is entirely fact you cannot deny this. the biggest crime of the prequels was not getting enough screen time with him. Also putting rouge one over return of the jedi and revenge of the sith is just odd to me... Rouge one is good but it's not above revenge of the sith or return of the jedi.

In defense of Solo, it took place nearly 15 years before the originals, and Han probably experienced some high level of betrayal in between those to. His first hero arc was faster because he was never truly betrayed, then he took 3 movies to become the true hero we know, for he had a mistrust of everyone but Chewbacca.

Despite Dooku having good initually having intentions, he becomes ruthless with his ways and is ultimately disillusioned by the very evil that would cast him aside in the end.

[@bacondorito]

Exactly this. People like to crap on TCW Dooku for becoming a cartoon villain of the week. I don’t see this at all. The dark side corrupts. The longer the war went on, the darker Dooku got. We even see his Sith eyes a few times in TCW. And this doesn’t conflict with him in ROTS because he’s simply not around long enough in that movie to do anything as evil as he did in TCW.

[@commandercaptain4664]

His arc is almost as tragic as Vader's, and makes an intriguing throughline for the recklessness that started with Yoda's tutelage all the way to Luke's learning.

I don't know how many people I'm gonna trigger, but here's my personal SW movie ranking... 12. Star Wars: The Clone Wars (The Clone Wars is my favorite SW show and just my favorite piece of SW content ever, but God damn it was the pilot movie abysmal.) 11. Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi (I liked some of the stuff Johnson did with Kylo. That's it. Everything else sucked and Ryan Johnson himself admitted that a lot of the things he did in this film were just to subvert the fanbase's expectations. But doing something just for shock value is just lazy.) 10. Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace (I feel so bad for Jar Jar and Anakin in this movie. This film ruined their lives and horrible people with the audacity to call themselves SW fans still hound them to this day. They were just doing their jobs, people! It's not their fault! To quote George Lucas: "I think I've gone too far in a few places.") 9. Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones (The last forty minutes of this film contains some of the best action scenes ever in SW! The problem is you have to watch the rest of this movie first. There is a reason why Lucas is known as the King of Wooden Dialogue.) 8. Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker (I view this film the same way I view Peter Jackson's The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies. It's just dumb fun. I liked the C-3PO stuff, and Finn was given a teeny tiny bit more respect than Episode VIII. Kylo once again was the best part. I wish Ray just stayed Ray with no last name.) 7. Solo: A Star Wars Story (As much as I hate to admit it: Ben Shapiro pretty much echoed my thoughts on this movie. It wasn't that bad, and I liked how the actors gave it their all, but Han's arc was too soon, and we did not need to know where he got the decorative dice, or we he started calling Chewy...well...Chewy.) 6. Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (This is where the rest of my list gets REALLY controversial. I know most people consider this to be the best Disney SW movie, but it's the second best in my opinion. I liked the characters with Andor being my personal favorite. At the same time he's probably a lot of people's favorite and that's why he got his own show. Some things did feel bland or generic to me and characters like the Director were unnecessary in my opinion.) 5. Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope (Good movie! Really good movie! Like many of you I grew up with this film and watched it once a month as a kid! But I still can't help but notice all the flaws, especially the awkward acting moments. It's not that big of a deal. This was the FIRST SW movie ever and as a pilot and the literal BACKBONE of the franchise it does an amazing job, but I still find it jarring that Luke was way more devastated at the death of Obi-Wan, and Leia's reaction to her home world being blown up and the way she spoke to Stormtrooper Luke always rubbed me wrong.) 4. Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens (It might be because I watched this at the age of 12 back when it first came out, but I really like this movie and still do, and I wasn't the only one! I know many people nowadays like to dunk on this film, but I think that this movie is the most interesting and exciting in the Sequel Trilogy. We didn't know who Ray was, where the First Order came from, or why Luke Skywalker was gone. And Finn was my absolute favorite! I loved how he was a fish out of water during the entirety of this film, which made sense as he didn't know what life was like outside of the First Order.) 3. Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith (I view this film the same why I view The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. This movie is a flawed gem! George saw that people weren't liking the direction he was taking the franchise and gave the finale to the Prequels his all in an attempt to please the fanbase while also showing us the rise of the Galactic Empire and the fall of the Jedi Order. This film probably has the BEST action sequences in the entire series and Anakin's and Padme's relationship didn't make me gag...as much.) 2. Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi (A lot of people view this movie as the weakest of the OT, but I adore it! The musical score, the raw emotion! I will never forget the first time I ever watched this film! I wasn't born when it came out, obviously, but I just remember getting chills down my spine ever time Emperor Palpatine was on screen, and the complete 180 on Luke surprised me! He was beaten and broken in the last film, but now he carried himself everywhere he went and was determined to bring Vader back to the light and restore the Jedi Order. The Ewoks were okay. I didn't mind them that much.) 1. Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back (This is a film I think all SW fans can agree is the best, except for those people who love Revenge of the Sith a little too much. This movie is just what everyone wants in a sequel. They expanded the world, they fleshed out some of the characters, they gave us new likeable characters, the action was impactful and even emotionally moving, the romance was okay! George Lucas was never the best at romance. I'm sorry. And in this film Vader says the thing! And most importantly we watched Yoda beat R2 with a stick!)

I'd argue that Luke is the exact opposite of a Mary Sue. Everything he achieves in the movies has taken him a lot of training and practice. It's established very early on in Star Wars that Luke is *obsessed* with becoming a Star Fighter pilot. He desperately wants to join the academy. He plays around with his T-16 model in the droid scene. Then he talks about flying down the death star trench being just like "Begger's Canyon back home" and aiming at the exhaust point being like "targeting Wamp rats... they're not much bigger than 2 metres." He's spent every waking moment of his free time inadvertently training for the final space battle. The only thing he does with the force is use it to assist his torpedo shot, and Obi-wan specifically trained him to feel the force, and use it to help guide him. - Rey on the other hand is a desert scavenger, with no special combat or technical training. Yet she instantly does everything the "bestest evar!" simply because she's wonder Rey, the KK self-insert. The two characters couldn't be more different.

[@russianoverkill3715]

How Luke trained to fight Darth Vader? The only force training is: Obi-Wan's couple of minutes lecture; Yoda's couple of days training without lightsaber, mind you. That's it, and he held his own against Vader and then defeated him in the next movie.

[@malificajones7674]

@@russianoverkill3715 You missed the training session with the remote. That's where Obi-wan teaches Luke to feel the force, and gives him some lightsabre training. Just because we don't see Luke constantly training with the lightsabre from when he's given it in Star Wars, to when he actually fights Darth Vader in the Empire Strikes Back, doesn't mean he wasn't doing it. A significant time jump occurs between movies. Enough to evacuate Yavin Base, then set up the Hoth base. Considering how obsessively Luke wants to become a Jedi, you can bet he spent every free minute training with a lightsabre and trying to use the force. There's proof of this too. He uses the force to pull the lightsabre to his hand in the Wompa cave. Then expertly dismembers it when the creature attacks him. On the other hand, Rey gets given her lightsabre half-way through the force awakens. Then she gets captured. She has zero training, and zero time to even practice turning it on. Then she beats Luke's apprentice, who trained with a lightsabre for at least a decade. If you can't see the massive difference between the two... well, that's on you buddy.

The Phantom Menace is not worse than the last Jedi

[@ZymStudio]

All prequel movies should be above all the sequels and solo and rouge one.

[@Hungary_0987]

[@ZymStudio]

If you do not support the opinion then just don’t argue. But they are aliens anyway.

[@ClarkCameron-nb8qs]

My ranking 1. A New Hope- Reason A New Hope is great, and introduced the most iconic movie characters. 2. Rouge One- Reason it sets ANH up perfectly. And Darth Vader's hallway scene. 3. Empire strikes Back- Reason Just great and the best interpretation of Vader. 4. Return of the Jedi- Reason Ewoks are bit goofy for the more darker tone but still good. 5. Force Awakens- Reason it's a worse A New Hope. 6. Revenge of The Sith- Reason Better acting but dialogue is still not great and "She's losing the will to live." Good job Lucas. 7. Solo- Reason don't remember much 8. Rise of Skywalker- Reason "Somehow Palatine Returned" 9. Last Jedi- Reason Luke 10. Phantom Menace- Reason Bad Dialogue/writing as well and Jar Jar Stinks. 11. Attack of the clones- Reason Bad Dialogue/writing

Rouge one as 1. Is cool tho a new hipe isnt my favorite i would put it at 5-4

[@Storycritic177]

I personally disagree with where he put the phantom menace. It is a very good movie. And George didn’t put young anakin in there to make kids like the movie he put him in there to show where he came from so that we would know he had a hard childhood

2:02 while i was watching rebels and the maul/ezra plotline happened it made me wish they did a sith mast/jedi apprentice thing where they balance each other out. that would have been cool enough to make the last jedi a good movie if the went down that path

[@Rex-RampageYT]

My top 5 favorite SW characters 1: Anakin 2: Yoda 3: Luke 4: Obi Wan 5: Darth Vader

[@Nate-fb1rr]

Anakin and Vader are the same though.

[@Adog00]

I’m so surprised he thinks Phantom Menace is last. It’s full of politics lol

[@grayfox6518]

Phantom Menace is so underrated honestly. I keep watching it and watching it and I find reasons to keep coming back to it from context within and outside the movie. Whereas the more I watch Revenge of the Sith, despite everyone saying it's the best prequel, I just find less about it I enjoy (and that's partially because everything I love and think is interesting about the Clone Wars happens before Revenge of the Sith.

[@FB-nw8pp]

I would put Phantom Mence above the sequels, to be honest.

[@Dadadadalapapaya]

I dont like RoS because its so sad, especially if u’ve seen clone wars, like saddest movie ever

[@LocalAlpha]

All prequels is a great connected story, with not a single, but many developing characters. The Phantom Menace is the prelude to main events in Ep II and III, as the main acting good and bad heroes die, so it goes a bit separate from ep II and III. It is a great movie and a great start to an amazing story. I find it impossible to view on episode apart from another tbh. Ep III is considered the best out of three (by me too) because it has a big character development arc that goes in a rather fast pace, it is the time when Anakin explodes from the inside and all the mystery behind all of the events is revealed. It is also the most emotional film that sums up the previous episodes, so the success of the third episode is backed up with the events of the previous two. I love the first episode because of different times (relatively peaceful) and a whole lot of mystery caused by the unexpected appearance of sith.

[@russianoverkill3715]

​@@LocalAlphaPadme sure is developed, lol. Fuсking cardboard piece of a character.

[@DarthKofi391]

7:41 Every Star Wars Film I would watch them few times at the cinema but Rise Of The Skywalker I only saw it once and don't think I've watch it since it came out

[@roideschiffres6760]

I never really though about the quality of the CGI, I don't like the plot of the sequel, I really hate it but I remeber being flabergasted by the quality of the film when I watched it on a friends TV. Then, I realised I watched the original and prequels on VHS so the quality is worse which probably explains it. Also my friend as a good flat screen TV, even though the color aren't as good the resolution is far better then on my 36" CRT. Also, hot take, I prefered the prequels (not the movies but the universe), I found the universe to be much more open. It opened potential for political games between the jedi and the senate, as well as a whole new area of interesting conflict throught the clone wars. We could have had a bunch of intersting political, economical and militeristic conflicts, alliences and backstabing.

[@Dadadadalapapaya]

So right

[@Liam-nw8bo]

Say what you will about the prequels, the story is well written (not the dialogue or cgi) and it fits so well with the originals so I love it.

[@toadynamite8141]

The dialogue was perfect, it gave us so many memes and iconic lines

[@Zxmw15]

“The resi-… Look at what the sequels have done to me” -Jedward 2023

[@a_person_of_all_time]

I would probably place all 3 sequels at the bottom. FA is just New Hope but rewritten to be much lamer and have double stakes, while destroying some charecters. LJ is a dumpsterfire that i never want to talk about ever again. Goes straight to the bottom, the film that ruined Star Wars. TROS is a magguffin hunt, with the stakes never seen before. Undoing Anakin's sacrafice at the end of ROTJ by reviving Palpatine is a stab in the back. This film relies on plot conviniece for it to move. One thing unites these movies, awful lightsaber battles... feels like they are swinging baseball bats. Comparing this to Prequel lightsaber battles makes it look like a joke.

[@noobmaster69426]

I agree the CGI for TPM could have been better, but it’s not the worst. I’d watch Solo over any sequel. And TPM is better than Solo imo

[@Lolz_Lolz222]

My opinion: 1: ROTJ 2: ROTS 3: AOTC 4: TESB 5: TPM 6: ANH (yes) 7: TFA I never watched the other sequel movies

[@crandom3434]

If you ever read the old EU, there was a book where Luke and the jedi work with the sith to take down Abeloth (the mother)

[@TheGrievousReviews]

Last Jedi is flawed but a decent film. I still like Luke in it.

[@CR7Prod7]

Putting rouge one above the GREATEST Star Wars movie of all time is criminally insane.

[@coletonpallatto]

Nah empire strikes back is the greatest. Although revenge of the sith should still be higher than rogue one imo.

[@burpy501]

For me ranking the movies never made sense. I don't watch any of the disney movies anyways. And whenever I want to watch Star Wars I start with the 1 and watch everything. It was intended as one movie.

[@_sandakin_]

my boy Dooku would slaughter rey like an exterminator does to a bug

[@ei3170]

I went back 2 days ago and watched a new hope and empire strikes back. And during empire strikes back I just shook my head most of the time wondering how far Disney has dropped the ball. Every character in Empire I cared about so deeply. Not so in the D-trilogies. Darth Vader is just BOSS in empire. Lucas…. You better do something now!!!!

[@mreggs3731]

ah yes, the tier list of a man that hated the prequels and defended the sequels, I get some points about "JJ Abrams undoing Rian Johnson's work" but I don't get how badly placed the prequel movies were placed.

[@WillOhler-l4b]

I love that you love Star Wars. I am a huge fan, and I love this channel. NEVER STOP UOLOADING!

Heres my list from Best to worst 1 A New hope, 2 Return of the Jedi, 3 The Empire strikes back, 4 Revenge of the Sith, 5 The Phantom Menace, 6 Attack of the clones, 7 Solo, 8 Rogue One, 9 The force awakens, 10 Rise of Skywalker, 11 The last Jedi.

[@charlie_541]

I agree with everything except for Empire Strikes Back not being #1 and Rogue One being behind solo somehow

[@AverageNerdGamer]

@@charlie_541 Well i just put a new hope first as its the OG. Also i just liked seeing Hans backstory compared to Rogue one. But then again it is my opinion so yeah you can think differently.

[@donovanphillips6278]

I neither watch nor listen to Ben Shapiro's show anymore. Literally the only reason I still watch ANY of his videos is for the Star Wars videos.

[@OkAndLmao1234]

The Last Jedi hate is a bit too much. Movie has problems but still has really solid elements lets chill out.

[@Schlampf0]

Phantom Menace on 11 is criminal

[@coletonpallatto]

If he swapped Menace with the rise of Skywalker this list would be near perfect

[@ZayJayPlays]

"Rogue One wasn't necessary." When you think about it, not even Empire Strikes Back was necessary. Lucas could have called it good with the first movie and he would have had a solid movie under his belt. It had a solid conclusion that wasn't necessary to follow up upon, yet had room to explore the universe.

[@TheRealStarWarsEdits]

1. Ep 3 2. Ep 5 3. Ep 2 4. Rogue 1 5. Ep 6 6. Ep 4 7 ep 1

I like what u did there only including the 7 real films lmao. Although I'd still put episode 5 at #1. As close to perfection as you can get in a movie

[@Kezzy-nm1fc]

I loved the sequels until I watched the prequels. My list goes solo, last rise of Skywalker, last jedi, force awakens, new hope, Last jedi, clone wars, phantom menace. And know this list wasn't buy prequel sequel etc.

[@coletonpallatto]

You forgot like half the movies including 2 from the prequels and you listed last Jedi twice 😂

[@AndersonSherwood-nn2dx]

You can’t put return of the Jedi over a new hope.

[@coletonpallatto]

I agree. I also don't get how people can put Revenge of the sith above empire strikes back. Star wars would not be what it is today without empire. I mean hell the story of ROTS is structured around the plot of empire.

[@biodock2003]

Phantom Menace has good lore but the execution was questionable

[@ryaninthiran9862]

people think tpm sucks because their brains are too stupid to follow the plot and also they have completely ignored duel of the fates and podracing, the 2 most iconic prequel scenes.

[@SC4R3]

No. If you look at Phantom Menace as a movie critic, you'll see that the movie is a complete mess. Whole plot is: We are here, but we have to get there We are here, but we have to get there Oh no, engine broken Yes, a lary stu kid fix engine We take kid Red sword guy try kill kid Kid escape Council refuse kid War begin Aliens and robots fight Now two lightsabers One jedi down Sith down Kid now jedi

[@russianoverkill3715]

2 most iconic scenes dont make the movie good

[@Sr.Originality100]

My personal list 11: The Last Jedi (It’s obvious why) 10: The Phantom Menace (The Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan VS Maul is a very good fight, other than that, there really isn’t much to this movie) 9: Solo (I’m not sure why, I can’t really seem to ever be super interested into seeing more about Han Solo than I already know) 8: The Rise of Skywalker (It still has the stain that is The Last Jedi) 7: The Force Awakens (Definitely the better and somewhat watchable of the sequels. Kylo Ren is quite a bad ass in this movie [Up until he kills Han Solo for whatever reason] and seeing a new Star Wars movie come out with fresh spanking new characters was quite a nice breather… Until it wasn’t) 6: Empire Strikes Back (It’s a good movie although it doesn’t really hold the significant candle the other two originals hold to me. I see this more as an intermission movie between 4 and 6. Seeing how Luke goes from a rather immature boy to the Jedi Knight is very interesting though) 5: Rogue One (It’s a nice movie with a nice story, very middle of the road. The only reason why this ranks above Empire for me is because of 4 words: Darth Vader Hallway Scene) 4: Attack of The Clones (I like this movie a lot, despite all the cheesy romance, the epic showdown between Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Yoda to Dooku and how the Clone Wars started definitely carries this movie) 3: A New Hope (The OG itself. I remember being introduced to Star Wars through this movie and man is it a great movie) 2: The Last Jedi (The grand finale of how Luke becomes a master and manages to not be seduced to the dark side by Palpatine and how Darth Vader fulfills the prophecy is amazing.) 1: Revenge of The Sith (By far the best movie showing the fall of the Republic and the rise of the Empire) My opinion on the rankings may vary from time to time depending on how I feel but for now this is it. Feel free to share your opinions, too!

[@jasonsenter1646]
