Why would they say 7? I'm assuming the context is in preparation of this recent movie, so I don't think you'd count that one too?


The seventh starwars film is released, I just watched it.

I was actually hoping for JJ Abrams to middle finger salute the fans and make the film utter wank because it would ave been funny. But nah, good movie, but that's honestly as far I'll go; It's good, but not great.

Hm... I've never watched Star Wars, so...

A challenge for you all: pique my interest with Star Wars with a sentence about it.

Competitively, Reach was my favorite. Had significant host and spawning issues, but I felt it left the most up to the skill of the player. Halo 2 was just, ayyyyyy camping but endless rocket respawns is skill. I wish I was around when Halo Reach MLG was still going on. So many noobs back on Reach it's incredible. Thank you 343 you're my hero.


Reach was garbage. They constantly built up a good engine and then decided to completely redo everything about it for Reach. Reach did not add skill to Halo, it took skill away from the game and closed the gap between competitive play and casuals. Halo 4 did the same exact thing except they closed the gap even further, and I haven't even played Halo 5 for more than ten minutes because of how much it doesn't feel like a Halo game. And honestly, the games wouldn't even be that bad if they focused more on the competitive play when it comes to multiplayer. Reach is a perfect example of not doing that. They literally cut all of the multiplayer maps from the campaign, which means they weren't even designed specifically for multiplayer. Even if they were, it's like shipping a game with ten different variations of High Ground from Halo 3. Hell, Last Resort was more dynamic and was a much better map than anything from Reach. Even Halo 5 feels like GoW, CoD, and TitanFall all gang raped the shit out of Halo 3.

Meh. If you like sci-fi then you'll love it. Star Wars is this big for a reason. What anyone says doesn't matter, it's just up to your personal preference.

I've never watched Star Wars. Should I just watch the original trilogy or should I watch all six?

Star Trek is better Sci-Fi
Star Wars is better Sci-Fantasy, that's why more people relate to it

Dude. All six for sure.


Quote from PLasmaghost
I say, watch all six just so you have a decent understanding of the greater universe, and also because the plinket reviews on the prequels are pretty funny right after finishing its respective ep lol...

(but u REALLY dont have to)


I'm not really that big of a sci-fi fan, and Star Wars has been really spoiled to death because of how influential it is to pop-culture, so it feels kind of pointless to watch all six movies. Especially since the prequels weren't as critically acclaimed as the original trilogy was. It's also kind of daunting because each movie has more than two hours of runtime.

I think I'll just give the original trilogy a try and if it doesn't catch my attention then I'll skip the prequels.

I remembered watching those!

I'll never forget that 1 episode where it focused on the storm troopers who were held up in a base. Never forget.

Yeah. It really showed the competence of a clone rather then the cannon fodder that they usually are.

Not saying they weren't cannon fodder in that series, but it gave them a little bit of a chance.

I enjoyed The Force Awakens a lot but it wasn't what I was looking for and wasn't written that well.
