We have all seen them, at least I hope so.

The Star Wars movies are obviously one of the biggest cultural gifts from humanity in modern time, but in what order are people supposed to see them now when (hopefully) all of them are released?

To my knowledge, there are only two reasonable ways to watch the story,

Either you watch them by release order:

• Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope (1977)
• Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back (1980)
• Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi (1983)
• Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace (1999)
• Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones (2002)
• Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith (2005)
• Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens (2015)
• Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016)
• Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi (2017)
• Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018)
• Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker (2019)

or chronological:

• Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace 
• Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones 
• Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith 
• Solo: A Star Wars Story 
• Rogue One: A Star Wars Story 
• Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope 
• Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back 
• Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi 
• Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens 
• Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi 
• Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker 

I hope we can all agree, there is no other movie to end the series with than finishing of with The rise of Skywalker.

I'd love a debate, but a few agreements would be OK.
