The best of the Star Wars series.
Except for the whole “Ewok” thingy, and George Lucas’ vision of them being like the Viet Cong

yes....Empire, #5, was the darkest and because of that the best....

number 4 was just fantastic.... the beginning of #6 was great, then went right downhill

1,2, were just awful....but like 5, I like #3 for its darkness....

and the Ewoks and Jar jar tie for worst species...and Jar jar wins for worst character....

Yeah. I screwed up my response. I was thinking ROTJ, but answered to Empire. Out of the six, I still like Empire the best, then "Star Wars", then ROTJ up until the Ewoks - I do like the struggle between the Sith/Jedi at the end of ROTJ.

Of the prequels, I like the darkness of Revenge, but hated most of Attack of the Clowns Clones.

The Phantom Menace would have been great without Jar Jar and had they put someone who could actually act as young Anakin. Well, that and having someone, anyone, besides Lucas writing the dialogue.

It helped that #5 (Empire) had an excellent director in Irvin Kershner. The fact that he didn’t return to do #6 to reign in Lucas’s cutesy excesses was quite lamentable. Kershner did two films in the ‘60s that were enjoyable, “The Flim-Flam Man” with George C. Scott and an early Robert Shaw vehicle filmed in Montreal, “The Luck Of Ginger Coffey.”
