There are no sequel films, though, so we still prefer our order. OK, here is a bonus list we haven't mentioned yet: The "Rinster Order" is named after Star Wars superfan Ernest Rinster, who created it to preserve the Luke-father twist, but it also keeps The Phantom Menace. But it was created in 2011, so it doesn't include the sequels and is no longer a complete order. It preserves the "I am your father" moment. The "Machete Order" basically cuts The Phantom Menace from your movie rewatch, because many people don't enjoy that film. That's confusing, especially for kids being introduced to Star Wars. You start with the originals, then go to the prequels, and end with the sequels. While it keeps the twist of Luke's father intact, the storyline is jumbled. This is the order in which the movies were released in cinemas. The theatrical (release date) movie order

The Mandalorian (2019 to 2022 on Disney+).Episode III: Revenge of the Sith (2005).Episode II: Attack of the Clones (2002).Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back (1980).OK, so here is the at-a-glance, spoiler-free version of the order above: Also excellent are the Google Chromecast with Google TV, the Roku Express 4K, the Apple TV 4K and the Amazon Fire TV Stick. What is the best streaming device for your TV? Our top recommendation is the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max. The film sees the return of Emperor Palpatine as Kylo Ren's The First Order and the rebels led by Rey prepare for a final confrontation on the planet known as Exegol. The conclusion to the Skywalker saga is out now and available on Disney Plus. Plus, there's the new Disney+ series. You can see how all this quickly becomes a mess. They take place between the originals and prequels but released during the most recent "sequel" trilogy. And then there's the Anthology films: Rogue One (2016) and Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018). You hop between Episodes IV-VI (the original trilogy released between 19), then Episodes I-III (the prequel trilogy released between 19), and Episodes VII-IX (the sequel trilogy released between 20). Sure, the “I am your father” surprise stays intact, but the storyline is jumbled.

Watching the release date order also has unsatisfying points. Watching chronologically also spoils the biggest twist in the series by prematurely revealing the identity of Luke's father. While the chronological order might be the obvious choice, some argue it's not as enjoyable because you start with The Phantom Menace, our least-favourite film.

You can watch the movies and shows by release date order or in chronological order, for instance. There are many ways you can revisit the Star Wars saga.
