Alright, BIG news: @hotmessmia has agreed to FINALLY watch Star Wars.
The question: if she is experiencing Star Wars for the first time...where should she START!?
Full disclosure: I’m leaning towards showing them chronologically (prequels, spinoffs, OG, new ones)

Big thank you to everyone who filled out the poll/texted me about this. We’re going with the following order:
Rogue One
A New Hope
The Empire Strikes Back
Attack of the Clones
Revenge of the Sith
Return of the Jedi
The Force Awakens
The Last Jedi
The Rise of Skywalker
Rogue One
A New Hope
The Empire Strikes Back
Attack of the Clones
Revenge of the Sith
Return of the Jedi
The Force Awakens
The Last Jedi
The Rise of Skywalker
This utilizes the much-discussed “machete order”, which shuffles the two original trilogies in a way that makes the story more centered on Luke than Anakin. I’ve never watched this way, so I’m intrigued.
I think Rogue One is one of the best Star Wars movies and a good way to kick off Mia’s Star Wars experience leading into A New Hope.
This omits A Phantom Menace and Solo, but because these movies aren’t as critical to the overall plot, they can be added as “bonus movies” after.

I have NO idea how long this will take, but we’re excited to embark on this journey. I’ll include Mia’s one tweet review for each movie in this thread.
