    Maybe they are just embarrassed about putting it on?

    I think each of the 6 movies has its place.

      People are renting it and then microwaving the disc, claiming it never arrived. At least that is what I do. It is on permanent #1 spot for netflix. :-\

        Been watching the SW movies recently on Netflix. Saw 4,5,6 (in that order) and then saw 2 and 3. 1 (TPM) is still showing as "very long wait" :-( Redbox doesn't have TPM either. I wodner what's so special about SW 1 that it's in so much demand, specially considering that many fans consider it the worst of the 6 movies. :~

        So that's how you do, Nish. I would be interested to hear from others: If you had to subject a person who has never seen any of the SW movies to the entire series, what order would you show them in then? 1) The release order: 4,5,6,1,2,3 2) The chronological order: 1,2,3,4,5,6 3) Some other order determined by the dark side... ???

        Why can't I be applicable like John? - Me, April 2011

            same here

            Common sense is not a gift it's a curse. Those of us who have it have to deal with those that don't.... Be careful which toes you step on today, they might be connected to the foot that kicks your butt tomorrow. You can't scare me, I have children.

                      I can't remember where, but I read recently that this is a good order... 4,5,(1),2,3,6 Where 1(TPM) is optional, and you save Return of the Jedi till last, so as not to give too many "spoilers". I take no credit for this, I just can't remember where to give credit to. Iain.

By getting them used to the lower (but better) quality of special effects, you innoculate them to this.

                                Partial chronological order: 2, 3, 4, 5. 1 and 6 are not worth watching, IMHO

                                  Been watching the SW movies recently on Netflix. Saw 4,5,6 (in that order) and then saw 2 and 3. 1 (TPM) is still showing as "very long wait" :-( Redbox doesn't have TPM either. I wodner what's so special about SW 1 that it's in so much demand, specially considering that many fans consider it the worst of the 6 movies. :~

                                  Regards, Nish

                                    Maybe they are just embarrassed about putting it on?

                                    It certainly isn't very good (and the critics rate it generally lower than the other 5) but honestly... I like it better that #2 and #3. IMO "Revenge of the Sith" is just plain awful!

                                        So that's how you do, Nish. I would be interested to hear from others: If you had to subject a person who has never seen any of the SW movies to the entire series, what order would you show them in then? 1) The release order: 4,5,6,1,2,3 2) The chronological order: 1,2,3,4,5,6 3) Some other order determined by the dark side... ???

                                        Why can't I be applicable like John? - Me, April 2011
