| Apr 30, 2021 at 4:51 | comment | added | Sandun | @WilliamJackson now the Machete Order seems outdated. Mainly because the amount of backstory that The Clone Wars TV Series have set up. Maul is no longer a thinly written character. | |

| Jan 4, 2017 at 9:05 | comment | added | Ber | Is there anyone that has actually done this? I can't imagine any kid, much less adult, wanting to wait to find out what happens to Han Solo and Vader. Conversely, there isn't much passion for Hayden Christiansen any time before the stand-alone episode III. Also agreed with Preston -- this answer says that you should watch IV and V first to get them out of the way, so that you can get to the better looking films? Hmm... I don't feel old, just sad... | |

| Jan 21, 2013 at 14:30 | comment | added | Simon Hibbs | I think this is right, but that Phantom can be dropped. It doesn't add anything and it just a distraction. It can be watched later as a bit of extra back story if you like. | |
| Feb 27, 2012 at 19:41 | comment | added | William Jackson | Even better: follow this order, just don't watch The Phantom Menace. | |
| Dec 19, 2011 at 17:50 | comment | added | cabbey | Just need to add the clone wars animated series in between ep II and III for completeness. | |

| Feb 25, 2011 at 20:26 | comment | added | Scivitri | @Chris: Maybe, but the significance would be debatable. Remember if you follow this plan you start with 2 movies getting to know everyone. I don't recall the end of E3 being a detailed explanation so much as a "here's the visual history" moment for people who knew what was going on. And even then, it's only spoiled for about 30 minutes. | |
| Feb 3, 2011 at 19:02 | comment | added | user21 | Doesn't the very end of Episode III spoil the revelation made to Luke on Dagobah in Episode VI? | |
| Feb 1, 2011 at 20:12 | comment | added | Jerry Brady | I love this recommendation. And as the parent of small kids, let me add that your appreciation of the various films is clouded by your age and what you were first exposed to. My kids loved I,II and III much more than the ones I grew up watching. | |
