Out of the now released 10 Star Wars movies, which do you consider good?

The movies are:

Star Wars: A New Hope
Empire Strikes Back
Return of the Jedi

The Phantom Menace
Attack of the Clones
Revenge of the Sith

A Force Awakens
The Last Jedi

Rogue One
A Han Solo story


There are 10 live action theatrical Star Wars movies, soon to be 11 when Episode 9 comes. Since it seems like Star Wars fans hate more than half the movies, I'm curious, how many of these do you consider, "good?"

Not a big Star Wars fan, but I'd say the Original Trilogy. That's it.

All of them except VII, VIII, and II. I don't really consider Rogue One and Solo much of anything, but they're not offensive.

I enjoyed Solo when I watched it, but have no desire to rewatch it.

I couldn't finish Rogue One; it bored me to tears. I popped the DVD out about 20-25 minutes into it.

You're missing The Clone Wars, released theatrically. Technically the two Ewok movies are movies even if not released theatrically nationwide.

Clone Wars isn't live action and part of the show, and nobody cares the Ewok movies exist

Rogue One was good for one viewing and the more times one waches it becomes less good and pointless. I love Vader being badass and the unfortunate final bow of Carrie Fisher due to the timing of release.

Not big on The Phantom Menace, never had been. Too many minor characters and the plot is too bloated with Trade Federation stuff.

The Last Jedi had a lot of expectations and I was so eager to see Luke Skywalker and was let down at every turn from the moment he tossed the light saber aside to being a projection that caused his body to give out to Luke's out of character actions. One letdown after another.

All the other are enjoyable.

Luke wasn't going to charge out there with a laser sword to go save the galaxy. This wasn't going to go the way you think. Luke isn't space Jesus.

Phantom Menace remains the best, followed by A New Hope.

The original trilogy, the original versions only, are the only good Star Wars movies.

Nothing wrong with the Ewok movies at all. And yeah, that second one got dark af, and real quick out of the gate. Jarring, especially as a kid.
