You can see how all this quickly becomes a mess. They take place between the originals and prequels but released during the most recent 'sequel' trilogy. And then there's the Anthology films: Rogue One (2016) and Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018). You hop between Episodes IV-VI (the original trilogy released between 19), then Episodes I-III (the prequel trilogy released between 19), and Episodes VII-IX (the sequel trilogy released between 20). Sure, the “I am your father” surprise stays intact, but the storyline is jumbled. Watching the release date order also has unsatisfying points. Watching chronologically also spoils the biggest twist in the series by prematurely revealing the identity of Luke's father. While the chronological order might be the obvious choice, some argue it's not as enjoyable because you start with The Phantom Menace, our least-favourite film.
