Topic: What's the right order to watch the Star Wars films in?

[Clive]

Is it better to show a newcomer the original Star Wars trilogy first, or the prequels? James examines both sides of the argument…

Simple, just don't watch the recent ones. Simples.

I enjoyed the one with the kid, and the pod racing - was that Pt.1 of the second lot?  Can't remember now, but I do remember I was trying out my new surround sound system with it, and had the bloke next door's pictures off his wall!  He wasn't happy! 

[sam]

Only one I really liked was num 3

[Rik]

I hated the lot, so you probably don't want to listen to me, Clive.

[Simon]

You hated them, but saw them all?  Sadist! 

[Rik]

No, I should have been clearer, I stopped after about 15 minutes of the first one and avoided the rest as I know I would hate them too.

[Simon]

Well, that's rather prejudgemental. 

[Clive]

I went for the sound effects.   

[Rik]

Well, that's rather prejudgemental. 

Not really, I knew it was pointless going further, I don't like fantasies.

[Simon]

Like me and opera. 

[Rik]

Ah, but I can help you there.

[Simon]

I can lend you the Star Wars box set. 

[Rik]

 

Only if I can lend you Don Giovanni.

[Simon]

Isn't that an after shave?
