Including Disney Wars on a Star Wars list is a mistake Placing any Disney Wars movie over a Star Wars movie is an epic fail.
The Orville is WAY BETTER than Star Trek discovery or strange new worlds
From the best to the worst episode 4 episode 5. Rogue one episode three episode one episode two and fuck the last three
I must say, Ranking these Shows based on the amount of screen time I have was quite refreshing. I have yet to see anyone do that before.
Great list with some really well-put takes! Here’s mine (all theatrical films, don’t kill me Snyder fans…): 1. Batman Mask Of The Phantasm 2. The Batman 3. The Dark Knight 4. Batman ‘89 5. Batman The Movie (1966) 6. Batman Begins 7. Batman Returns 8. The Dark Knight Rises 9. Batman Forever 10. The Lego Batman Movie 11. Batman: The Killing Joke 12. Batman & Robin 13. Zack Snyder’s Justice League 14. Batman V Superman Dawn Of Justice 15. Justice League
They’re both bad but 9 over 8 is crazy
Good ranking and great insight on these films man 👍 Mine: 11. Solo: A Star Wars Story 10.The Last Jedi 9. The Rise of Skywalker 8. Attack of the Clones 7. The Phantom Menace 6. The Force Awakens 5. Rogue One: A Star Wars Story 4. Return of the Jedi 3. Revenge of the Sith 2. A New Hope 1. The Empire Strikes Back
Finally someone who acknowledges rebels not only is good, but some of the best star wars media
My ranking from worst to best Rise of Skywalker Phantom menace Force awakens Last Jedi Solo Attack of the clones Rouge one A new hope Return of the Jedi Empire strikes back Revenge of the Sith
In my ranking the Disney products don’t count: 6. Phantom Menace 5. Attack of the Clones 4. Revenge of the Sith 3. Return of the Jedi 2. Star Wars 1. The Empire Strikes Back
12. Last Jedi 11. Force Awakens 10. Rise of Skywalker 9. Clone Wars 8. Revenge of the Sith 7. Solo 6. Attack of the Clones 5. Phantom Menace 4. Rogue One 3. Empire Strikes Back 2. Return of the Jedi 1. A New Hope My opinion stick to yours
I've changed my ranking to this 12. Last Jedi 11. Force Awakens 10. Rise of Skywalker 9. Clone Wars 8. Attack of the Clones 7. Solo 6. Revenge of the Sith 5. Phantom Menace 4. Rogue One 3. Empire Strikes Back 1. Return of the Jedi/ A New Hope
My ranking: 12:The last Jedi 11:The rise of Skywalker 10:The clone wars movie 9: Attack of the clones 8:Solo 7:The phantom menace 6:The force awakens 5: Rogue one 4:Revenge of the sith 3: A new hope 2: Return of the Jedi 1: The Empire Strikes Back
Star Wars 7,8,9 don't exist.
@@guiwom7692 oh yeah typo
Star Wars I-VI are the GOAT, they are one and the same, they are the best movies, a marvelous, magnificent and timeless work, two united and inseparable facets of the Star Wars world, the Skywalker saga as it should always have been.
1. Andor 2. The Clone Wars (2008) 3. Clone Wars (2003) 4. Tales of the Jedi 5. The Mandalorian 6. Rebels 7. The Bad Batch 8. Ahsoka 9. Obi-Wan Kenobi 10. Tales of the Empire 11. The Book of Boba Fett I personally believe that The Mandalorian and Rebels are massively overrated. They're not bad but they're not really good either. I haven't seen the Acolyte yet, but from what I've heard, it will most likely fall somewhere between 9-12.
Mine is 12 last Jedi 11 attack of the clones 10 solo 9 clone wars 8 force awakens 7 rogue one 6 rise of sky walker 5 phantom menace 4 revenge of the sith 3 a new hope 2 empire strikes back 1 return of the jedi
Star Wars 7,8,9 don't exist.
My ranking: 1. Empire strikes back 2. Revenge of the sith 3. A new hope 4. Return of the Jedi 5. Rogue one 6. Phantom menace 7. Attack of the Clones 8. Solo 9. The Force Awakens 10. The Clone Wars movie 11. The Last Jedi 12. Rise of Skywalker Rise of Skywalker and Last Jedi are basically the same place for me but Last Jedi gets the edge because of the Yoda scene Attack of the clones and Solo are also kinda the same place for me since both were flawed but I enjoyed both of them, Attack of the clones gets the edge because of Christopher lee
Clone Wars 03 may be shorter but just think about many iconic characters and moments it's able to squeeze into that short runtime. Grievous, Durge, the Battle of Coruscant, Anakin vs Ventress, the Battle of Mon Cala, etc.
As someone who grew up with star trek, the Orville has been my favorite trek show since Enterprise. I still like the newer star trek shows, but the Orville just feels like classic trek.
So your gonna write the new one and fix all this???
Caravan of Courage
Where does the Ewok Adventure fall in this ranking?
Very similar to my rankings. I'm torn on who is # 2. A New Hope or Revenge of the Sith

My list. ADAM WEST series 10/10Loved almost every episode! BATMAN (1989) 7/10 Cut them some slack. It was a transition film. ..... RETURNS ✝10/10✝ Like LETHAL WEAPON 1, fell into no extremes. ✝ .... FOREVER 5/10It could have been worse I guess. .... & ROBIN 3/10 Doh! I shouldn't have said that. BATMAN & SUPERMAN 1997 8/10Mr. J. and HQ forever! RETURN OF THE JOKER 9/10Better than it was supposed to be. RETURN TO THE BATCAVE 10/10We can't count this. What? We can? BATMAN BEGINS 7.5/10 Not what I was expecting. But I was good with it. DARK KNIGHT 7/10Watchable, yes. But I didn't want 2nds. ROTCC (2016) 10/10I waited for this reunion. BM VS TF 10/10 Nice to see you in action one last time Mr. West. JOKER 9/10At one point, we had to understand the evil in the story. THE BATMAN No interest. It's WOKE. And it does NOT like Batman.
I love how u preview the shows thats beautiful
Not bad! Here’s how I would rank them (Unfortunately haven’t seen Adam West’s Batman, and FORTUNATELY haven’t see The Killing Joke)… 1. Dark Knight- A 2. Batman Begins- A- 3. Batman ‘89- B+ 4. Mask of the Phantasm- B+ 5. The Batman- B+ 6. Dark Knight Rises- B+ 7. Lego Batman movie- B 8. Zack Snyder’s Justice League- C+ 9. Batman Forever- C 10. Batman Returns- either C- or D+, depends on the day 11. Josstice League- D+ 12. Batman and Robin- D- (too funny to give an F) 13. Batman vs Superman- F
Not including Legends shows. 1. The Clone Wars - 10/10 2. Andor - 10/10 3. Tales of the Jedi - 9/10 4. The Bad Batch (season 3 has brought it up a lot) - 8/10 5. The Mandalorian - 8/10 6. Rebels - 7/10 7. The Book of Boba Fett - 6.5/10 8. Resistance - 5/10 9. Obi-Wan Kenobi - 3/10 10. Ahsoka - 2.5/10
putting cw2003 anything below top 3 is insane. That show blows all the rest away.
I like the clone wars movie 2008 didn't hate it the show was epic classic grew up watch the show i like the original 4 5 6 and 1 2 3 the new ones 7 8 9 sucked ass lol.
ROTJ 4th? Not a chance. And if the rose tinted glasses are removed, Rogue One is the best Star Wars film. Lucas was abysmal at writing. His broad stroke story telling was good. I was 14-15 in 1977 and I knew at the time Star Wars was second tier sci-fi. Yeah yeah, Space Opera. Pfft ;) It's strange that the best Star Wars live action series also contains Cassian Andor, Melshi and Mon Mothma.
Revolutionary 1. A New Hope 2. Empire Strikes Back Cinema 3. The Last Jedi 4. Revenge of the Sith Just Good 5. Return of the Jedi 6. The Force Awakens 7. Attack of the Clones Flat out terrible 8. Rise of Skywalker 9. The Phantom Menace That's my ranking. As much as I try to love The Phantom Menace, I just can't justify the dumpster fire that is the first prequel. It just contradicts everything that the Original Trilogy did so well. Yoda in his entirety is slaughtered in the Prequels, going from being the greatest character, being this mysterious, force wielding mythological deity, to a mere flashy fight scene. (Still mad about that) The acting is terrible, and the script is notably worse than any other Star Wars Film. I absolutely despise The Phantom Menace for all that it ruined. The only good that came out of it is Qui Gon Jinn. The only reason the Attack of the Clones isn't lower is because it has charm and great world building, and you get a better insight into the world of star wars and its inner conflicts. It also builds Anakins character very well, as well as his descent into darkness. Still not great, but it's better than TPM. As for the Rise of Skywalker, its fun but fundamentally terrible, and it ruins all of the great possibilities that The Last Jedi sets up. Making Rey a Palpatine and bringing him back in general was horrible, absolutely unjustifiably terrible. The Last Jedi has such interesting themes, it was dark, gritty, and made you question whether good or bad even exsisted in Star Wars. I love philosophical shit, and The Last Jedi was exactly that, it was glorious. So its a shame it was ruined by J.J Abrams. Return of the Jedi is good, its just notably worse than the other originals. It has charm, and a good message, but the only interesting parts of the film end up being Luke and Vaders conflict. The rest is sort of thrown in the background and less expanded on than the theme of Light vs Darkness. Leia (who is my favorite OG Trilogy character) is needlessly wasted and mistreated in this film due to the fact that Luke is just the only focal point. She was such a powerful figure in A New Hope and Empire, and it worked so well, and shes just not the same in Return of the Jedi. Han is barely developed at all, like whatsoever, and Han and Leia are just sort of there, with not much development to make their romantic trope interesting. As much as I love this film, and adore it because of its charm and identity, its just difficult to not notice the blantantly bad stuff going on within its characters. I will say, Vader is perfect, as is Luke.
I get Social Security and can easily afford to see 2 films a week. But I managed to get through 2022 and 2023 without seeing a single film.
I think Blue Beetle is more forgetable than outright bad and Indian Jones 5 was actually better than I expected looking at reviews. I've also seen a ton of movies in 2023 and I don't feel these 2 are the worst I've seen, not bt a long shot. Most disapointing for me was operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre, such promise and such a disapointment really. The Flash, Magic Mike Last Dance and Hearts of Stone are probably my top 3 worst in 2023 and they are way worse than Blue Beetle and indy 5.
You are right, The last Jedi deserves to be the last. I lost it when I saw Princess Leia floating in outer space alive, and Luke's spectre wielding light saber to fight. Thought I was watching some fantasy movie, instead of sci-fi.
I’m so glad to hear you say that allowing Leia to float in space and somehow use the force she has never been shown to train to have the knowledge of makes no sense for her to just out of no where use it for that I lost it I almost gave up on Starwars because of the Last Jedi it was bad 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Leia flying in the space was so cringe but what you're saying is wrong, she's always been force sensitive and she also became a very powerful Jedi in the comics and what Luke did is called force projection and in comics Grandmaster Luke is so powerful that he mastered force projection and became one of his greatest ability. This film is bad but what you're saying is completely wrong
@@oletretre6051Leia has always been Jedi after Endor, do you even know about Star Wars ?
My list: 12. The Clone Wars Movie 11. Attack Of The Clones 10. The Last Jedi 9. The Phantom Menace 8. Solo 7. Rouge One 6. The Rise Of Skywalker 5. Revenge Of The Sith 4. A New Hope 3. The Force Awakens 2. The Empire Stikes Back 1. Return Of The Jedi
Indy 5 gets my vote for "The Worst" 2023
Great work 🫡
Andor is the only SW show that I would watch again, and which stays with you after each episode ends. It’s immersive the way the OG trilogy is. Other shows tried to recapture the magic but for me only Andor succeeded.
My top 3 are #3: Return of the Jedi #2: Empire Strikes Back #1: Revenge of the Sith
Bro you have the same ranking as me
Agreed
1. TCW (2008) 2. The Mandalorian 3. Andor 4. Rebels 5. Tales of the Jedi 6. Ahsoka 7. The Bad Batch (just watched s1) 8. Book of Boba Fett 9. Kenobi 10. Resistance
Some intonations are really good to hear, and some are just annoying for being monotonous.
I used to say that Revenge of the Sith was my favourite SW film. But now, I would just say I love episodes 1 to 6 equally. They feel like one big film to me, I've seen them so many times. All the films have good and bad points, but these add to the whole experience of the story and think the prequels compliment the originals beautifully. Additionally, George Lucas's development as a director and the development of the main cast through the films, as both characters and actors, these are also part of the experience of Star Wars. I wouldn't change any of it.
1 empire strikes back 2 Star Wars 3 revenge of the sith 4 return of the Jedi 5 attack of the clones 6 phantom menace 7 force awakens 8 rogue one 9 solo 10 last Jedi 11 rise of skywalker
I always do "Most Disappointing" Rather than "Worst" because if it looks bad, I don't see it. LOL This is My Top Ten Most Disappointing Movies of 2023! #10. Air #9. Ant Man and the Wasp: Quantamania #8. Fast X #7. Meg 2: The Trench #6. You are SO NOT Invited to My Bat Mitzvah #5. Dashing Through the Snow #4. Big George Foreman #3. Children of the Corn #2. You People #1. Renfield
Indy 5: when he literally became a cartoon character
Chang Can Dunk(reminds me of Jeremy Lin) and A Man Call Otto are the only two I'll check out.
