    What's your gut feeling on where Episode VII will rank among the pantheon?

    My vote is below ESB but higher than ANH, ROTJ, and ROTS (which are all ranked closely for me). Second best.

    This is an E7 topic, not Spin-offs... do you want it moved to 7SA or 7NSA? dolphin

    I'm not going to vote because i couldn't choose. But in my personal opinion if the Darth Luke rumors are true and it is played out well then it has a great chance of being up there.

    If the film was shot using the ideas which have been rumored over the past few weeks... down to and including "everyone in the film has a robotic arm"... this film is somewhere around Ewoks: Battle for Endor level. And, at least that film had the amazingness of Cindel.

    Obviously it's the worst as they can't bear to let us watch it for more than a year until they fix it up.

    It will obviously be the third best movie in the saga. I am basing this informed opinion on... um... hmmm... err... black x-wing?

    If the Darth Luke rumors are true... it could be the worst.

    But I don't believe those rumors so I have no clue.

    It's going to be the best because it's going to have a Sith Ewok cyborg flying a black X-Wing.

    I don't know as I haven't seen it, but I've recently decided that ROTJ is better than ANH..

    I never rank the existing films because I feel they all tell a different part of the story. It's like your kids, you can't have a favorite. However I have seen some more than others. I've seen ROTS the least. I've seen AOTC and ESB the most. probably TPM, ROTJ and ANH hope are tied. Just to be a Debbie Downer I voted "worst" for EP7. Just something about it not coming from the Lucas design aspect still bothers me. But I will probably like it about the same as the others, which means it's an equal.

    All movies are contrived.

    In those terms Star Wars movies are some of the least contrived movies ever especially III which well after shooting Lucas reworked in post to change a bunch of material around. So in that sense it was the least contrived and most spontaneous of the films.

    As I've said elsewhere in that sense this entire sequel trilogy will be the most contrived set of films because I seriously doubt they will be as fluid as George made his movies where he gave himself the option to use all sorts of trapdoors to change things.

    Unlike the previous trilogies I think this thing is set to a certain trajectory across all the films. For the prequels you had a finish line but how to actually get there was totally fluid. For the OT you had the start but could go many places. For this trilogy they know the direction of all 3 and how that fits into the overall plan they have which is an ongoing thing.

    Lol that is most definitely true. He was just so evil and BA. His scenes are my absolute favorite in both the PT and OT.

    I can't possibly answer this because I'm not foolish enough to think I know anything about the film.
