I’ve got a couple friends who have never seen Star Wars, but would like to. What is the best order to introduce “Star Wars virgins” to the franchise?
I was raised on the release order (4, 5, 6, 1, 2, 3), and prefer it when introducing the movies to first-time viewers, but I recognize that I could be biased.
I know there are a bunch of different orders (chronological, machete, etc.), each with their proponents and detractors.
What is your recommended order, and why?
I’m an originalist.
IV, wait 3 years.
V, wait 3 years.
VI, wait 16 years.
I, wait 3 years.
II, wait 3 years.
III, wait 10 years.
VII, wait 2 years.
VIII, wait 2 years.
IX.
So catching up is impossible? You just always stays 50 years behind?
Avoiding spoilers would be a never-ending nightmare :)
