    Rogue One was a fine movie. The best of the franchise? I probably need more time to consider that.

    It was a great movie and a perfect tie in to the universe. It's hard to agree that it is the best, because it uses so many ideas from previous movies (which is fine and why we all love it). First seeing the AT-AT's and Vaders "No, I am your father" are unforgettable memories that make Empire the best for me. Nevertheless, the story was solid, the tragic ending was unexpected, but unique. The characters (x-wing pilots, Tarkin, Lea and Vader) and their actors (many since passed), that were also in A New Hope were awesome highlights for me. Can't wait to see it again!

    I think some props need to go to Disney. There is not a better company for this franchise. They are sure putting out greater than expected movies. I'm looking forward to the many Star Wars movies (looks like one every year), if they can keep this quality up.

    I liked the darker tones as it reminded me of Empire, but for me "Empire Strikes Back" and "A New Hope" are still one and two. At the very least Rogue one would be way ahead of Episodes 1-3, but still thinking about if it should be ahead of 7.

    I was thinking that Rogue One belonged ahead of 1-3 for sure, and probably ahead of 7 but not ahead of 4-6.

    Jedi for me was by far the weak link in the Original Trilogy, so I'd put Rogue One ahead of it. Tricky with Force Awakens for me, because as good as it was, it essentially IMO was just a re-imaging of A New Hope.
