The Peanut Gallery's Star Wars Film Rankings
May the Fourth be with you. Here's how we rank the 11 Star Wars films.
In honor of May the Fourth, I decided to spring an enormously important question on a few of my fellow Peanut Gallery writers: how do you rank the 11 Star Wars films (nine in the Skywalker Saga and two spin-offs). Steve Titcomb, Josh Aboody and Matt Novak responded, and responded with vigor. My list is clearly the superior one, but they do know more about movies than I do. Allegedly.
Anyway, here's three 1-11 Peanut Gallery Star Wars Rankings, from three experts and one jabroni. I'll also include a ranking based off the average spot of each movie.
