Gaston de Foix Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 So I've finished the prequels, Rogue 1, OT and sequels. I've heard good things about the Mandalorian and I remember recommendations to watch the Clone Wars and possibly other things. But maybe order is important? What (if anything) should I watch next?

Poobah Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 Mando and Clone Wars are both very good. I finished Clone Wars the other day and really loved it. Both have significantly better writing than most of the movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denvek Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 The order should be Clone Wars, then Rebels, then The Mandalorian. There are elements in each that feed into the next Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soylent Brown Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 Now you've seen the main films, I'd say the order of the rest of the stuff isn't as important, though you should watch the Star Wars Holiday Special ASAP. My recommendation would be to watch The Mandalorian next, as I enjoyed that more than the other shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I've never watched the Princess Bride... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you'll find it anywhere legitimate, so you might have to dig a bit. Watch Princess Bride too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhom Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 Its funny you say that though, I was actually just thinking about you last night as I finished reading the last thread wondering if there's any other series you haven't seen that we could follow along with... Indiana Jones? James Bond? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be happy to do either from the beginning if there's interest from others. Do you have a preference? I've also never seen Star Trek apart from a few episodes here and there.

Soylent Brown Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 Well there are only three Indiana Jones films, so that won't be too much of a time sink - just watch them in order- Lost Ark, Temple of Doom, and Last Crusade. Don't pay any attention to what the internet may say, there are only three films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Indiana Jones would be fun. They don’t carryover as much as Star Wars, but they are certainly classics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soylent Brown Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 And there's no need to go into any of he behind-the-scenes stuff to encounter Lucas's madness either, just watch the three (!) films and leave it at that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RumHam Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 I don't care for Temple of Doom. I've met people who hate Last Crusade though I've never really understood why. 2 minutes ago, Soylent Brown said: Nah, there are definitely three films, but it really is only three. Three. So how does this work if the fifth one comes out and is somehow good? Apparently Spielberg is no longer directing, James Mangold is. Assuming Indy 5 does eventually come out and is terrible expect a sudden re-assessment of Crystal Skull as "really not that bad." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ran Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 There are three movies and two seasons of a pretty decent, sometimes quite charming, television show. The rumors of a fourth film are up there with the rumors of a second Highlander film. Also, @Gaston de Foix, when did you arrive on Earth? Or are you some unicorn? Either way, pop culture seems to have passed you by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corvinus85 Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 @Gaston de Foix You know my opinion, watch them all. As to the order: If you're watching The Clone Wars, here is the proper order. https://www.starwars.com/news/star-wars-the-clone-wars-chronological-episodeorder This is because when the show aired they released episodes as they finished them, but the show is organized in arcs of 3-4 episodes, mostly. Even the Clone Wars movie is connected to a few episodes. The Rebels should follow Clone Wars, though that show is linear, so no special watch order there. You can start with The Mandalorian first if you wish. It takes place after Return of the Jedi, but way before the sequel trilogy. Only in a few scenes, particularly the season finale there will be elements drawn from Clone Wars/Rebels so you may be confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shouldn't we "never forget" as opposed to falling into denialism? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
