I will freely admit that watching The Mandalorian with my son has revived (from the dead pretty much) my love of Star Wars. There was a time when the kids were little that periodically as a family we’d spend Saturday nights re-watching the entire original trilogy. Or try to at any rate. So the love has always been there. Just unconscious lately.
So, yes, because of The Mandalorian I’ve been thinking about re-watching them all. And possibly tossing in some of the animated series. But the immediate question is in what order?
Well, I found an interesting article on that one.
What is the right Star Wars viewing order? Though some sources claim there are up to five different orders you could watch the Star Wars saga in, there are three generally accepted ways to do it. One is in order of episodes (following in-movie chronology), the second is in order of production (going by release date) and the third (the so-called “Godfather cut”) to best tell the Skywalker story’s plot twists. All three have their pros and cons. The Machete order is simple, you remove The Phantom Menace.All the Star Wars orders – the best order to watch the movie and shows in
I may have to try them all. It may take me the rest of my life to do it but I can try. Just saying.
