Star Wars I (1977) was far and away the best of the series. There should never have been any sequels or antecedents.
Empire Strikes Back was a lot better than ANH.
To me it goes ESB>>>ANH, ROTS, ROTJ, TFA, AOTC, TPM> TLJ, ROS.
I agree with you but we are vastly outnumbered. Most folks loved the endless sequels and prequels. They just ain’t as cultured as we is.
