Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, and Han Solo from the Star Wars original trilogy
Admittedly, there are only so many ways that you can rank the individual films in a trilogy. Seriously, look: you can say the first is the best, the second is the second best, and the third’s the third best. You could rank them in the opposite order to that. You could say the first trumps the third, which in turn trumps the second. You could say the third trumps the first, which then trumps the second.
There were revelations and shocking twists of fate at the end of Episode 5 that are addressed throughout Return of the Jedi, with Luke Skywalker really coming into his own as far as being a hero goes, and the film’s at its best whenever he’s sharing the screen with Darth Vader. It’s also the only film in the original trilogy that prominently features the Emperor, and he’s a hammy delight as always.
2 'Star Wars' Director: George Lucas Close The Star Wars original trilogy avoids being one where the first film can be considered the worst, because 1977’s Star Wars – re-titled Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope after its initial release – is a stone-cold classic. It is perhaps the roughest around the edges of the three films in the original trilogy, but that gives it a certain distinct feel, or perhaps even an extra amount of charm.
Release Date May 25, 1977 Director George Lucas Cast Mark Hamill , Harrison Ford , Carrie Fisher , Peter Cushing , Alec Guinness , Anthony Daniels Runtime 121 minutes Watch on Disney+
