I’ve got a couple friends who have never seen Star Wars, but would like to. What is the best order to introduce “Star Wars virgins” to the franchise?

I was raised on the release order (4, 5, 6, 1, 2, 3), and prefer it when introducing the movies to first-time viewers, but I recognize that I could be biased.

I know there are a bunch of different orders (chronological, machete, etc.), each with their proponents and detractors.

What is your recommended order, and why?

    You get the “I am your father” reveal then it’s flashback time

    How is it a reveal if his name is literally “father”

      Because that only works in Dutch and is just a coincidence anyways, since originally Anakin and Vader were two different people.
