Star Wars -

Not sure if this deserved a new thread, looked on the forum to see if it has been covered before.

My lad is 7 and I want to introduce him to the Star Wars films - what order is best - do I show him 4,5,6 first then do 1,2,3

or go straight 1 to 6.

he really enjoyed all the Star Wars stuff at Hollywood Studios at Disney World - and I've watched em all.

If you want the surprise "I am your father" then it has to be 4-6 then 1-3. I'm not particularly a fan of the prequels but if you do in order then the whole father, sister stuff is spoiled.

2 and 3 are the best so save them until last. 4,5,6,1,2,3. Skip 1 if you want, it's shite.

cool - def start at 4

2 and 3 are the best

2 and 3 aren't bad, but I think once the train wreck that was 1 came out the following two were always going to be slated.

Yep. I know a few people that watched 1 but have never watched 2 and 3 yet still slag them off.

3 is one of my favourites, probably second behind ROTJ. But one thing that always sticks out for me is how badly they did the Vader transformation scene. It was the perfect opportunity for an iconic line and instead it was something like "can you hear me pal?" "yeah it's fine".....

Start with 4,5,6 and bury 1,2,3 they never happened!!

They had a couple of good spin offs on that scene in the PS2 game, including one where he guts Palpatine with the lightsaber as soon as the suit is turned on.
