Totally your call. But, I'm telling you, it's so weird and fun and strange and lovely and campy and awesome. It's totally worth your time. Especially if you crack open a brew or two first.
You need something stronger than that. And more than two them.

I can’t agree with you on this one at all.

Solo over TFA? Really? That’s an odd one

I liked Solo, it was a fun movie. I've only seen it once, but will watch it again in the next few weeks. I think it could have been better, but all in all it accomplishes what it set out to do. Rogue One is close to it in my rankings below, but a superior movie.

I have some issues with TFA, the planet killer, Rey's arc, Snoke's story, use of Luke, use of Han Solo. But overall it did leave me hopeful for the future of the franchise, I saw it twice in the cinema, and have seen it twice since.

Here's my ranking from May 2018:

1. ESB
2. ANH
3. ROTJ
4. TFA
5. Solo
6. RO
7. TLJ
8. ROTS
9. AOTC
10. TPM


But the rankings can be confusing. I'd give the first three straight As. I'd give TFA a B. SOLO through TPM a C


Still seems about right to me.

Any ranking that doesn’t acknowledge the Holiday Special and the Ewok movies is not legitimate

I’m simply incapable of ranking mine. It constantly shifts.
Been loving rogue one a lot lately. Haven’t watched the OT or PT in ages.
Might watch Solo tonight.

Is your rating the same after Solo has matured LV?

A New Hope
The Last Jedi
Rogue One
The Force Awakens
Revenge of the Sith
Solo (I've only seen it once)
Phantom Menace
Attack of the Clones

I watched the Holiday Special expecting it to be wtf-lol moments, but only a tiny portion of it was. It was mostly a lot of tedious bullshit for children
