WHAT THE FUCK WHY WHY
You deserve it you prequel shit eater
How could you post here any not know this?
>>81594606
>>81594637
I've seen it before. She hasn't. And we're doing it in machete order.
>>81594558
Anon, if you watched it in order, it's obvious that Palpatine is the emperor.
If you watch it in any other R*ddit stupid fucking order, you deserve much worse
You deserve to feel bad for watching the star wars-prequels
>>81594745
What the fuck is machete order
>>81594797
Stupid bullshit StarCucks claim is "le true order" to them.
>>81594745
I repeat myself, if you are voluntarily introducing her to the prequels, and before she has a chance to see the originals, you are a shit eater.
>>81594797
4, 5, 2, 3, 6
Does she pay attention or does she just flip through her phone
>>81595112
Both
>>81595015
...but... Why? How does that make sense?
>>81595202
y u r so nu
>>81595180
NORMIES GET OUT
>>81594558
Can I get sauce OP?
>>81595202
i havent heard this machete thing before but my guess is ep. 4 and 5 first so you dont get the "im your dad" moment spoiled, then watch 2 and 3 for emperor-vader relation build-up and finally the ending to the whole thing with ep 6. Forget phantom menace exists
how did I do?
>>81595270
Sorry bub, I usually don't click on Star Wars threads. You'll never guess why.
>>81595365
Basically. 2 and 3 basically become flash backs and you end with 6 for the climactic ending.
>>81594558
Are you threatening me master Jedi?
>tfw gf has never seen, and doesn't want to see star wars original films
>mfw gf thinks hobbit films are better than lotr films
>>81595365
>Forget phantom menace exists
Woah, what if you actually did this and just let your imagination fill in the backstory?
Which movies/scenes would be best skipped to optimize this series?
>tfwno gf

>>81594840
Starcucks is the term for people who go to starbucks. The correct vernacular is Cuckwars, faggot filth.
>>81595663
>your girl like hobbit films
>your girl will watch lotr before star wars original trilogy.
Your girlfriends a faggot dude.
>>81596086
Lotr blows Star Wars out of the water you little bitch.
>>81594903
lol why
>>81596365
Cause they fucking suck and she doesn't need to know that stuff. It's way better just watching the originals and leaving the prequel crap intact in imagination
>>81595365
Except that order is shit because you get the surprise and then have to sit through 2 or even 3 prequel films in a row just to see the conclusion. The correct order was posted by some anon here on /tv/, and it was
4 > 1 > 2 > 5 > 3 > 6
This way, you get most of the backstory out of the way before the twist, and after the big reveal you get to watch Anakin's downfall, followed immediately after by the conclusion to the series. It keeps the tensions high and doesn't bore you to death by making you have to watch 3 films in a row just to get to Return of the Jedi.Disney Star Wars is not canon btw
>>81594558
I sort of know that feel
>read a book's introduction
>the goddamn introduction spoils the story
>>81595706
Everything ;^)
>>81594903
Agreed.
>>81596316
3 several hour movies about walking to a volcano.
Your taste in movies is dog shit
>>81594558
That OP image gave me PTSD from that scene in Man's Best Friend where the dog with spliced DNA swallows that cat whole like a python.
>>81594745
>machete order
So you're a retard? You deserve it.
>>81594903
Machete order means that she's already seen Episode 4 and 5 by the time they watch 2 and 3, then 6 caps it all off.
