The Phantom Menace was my first Star Wars movie. I can't explain to you how wondrous it was seeing it, from the amazing worlds/planets....to lightsabers, Jedi's, the force, lightsaber battles, deflecting bullets from light sabers. This movie astounded me in every way possible. I was sucked in......I was sucked into the Star Wars world

I am pretty sure Episode 1 affected me like Episode 4 affected many when it launched back in the day.

It turned me into a Star Wars fan and made me spend hours online reading about the expanded galaxy and what not.

Its one of the most important films I have ever seen.

Episode 4 was the first one I saw, yet I still liked Episode V more. Sorry sire, no excuses.

Yes and I did like episode 3 more than 1. But not the rest.

Episodes 1 had something....some special attraction, I could never take my eyes off the screen.

In fact you have convinced me to see it again today! I must relive the epic!

Oh my, the oldest movie on your list is from 1994, and the next oldest if from 1999. And Revenge of the Sith wasn't a bad movie (Personally I found it better than Return of the Jedi), but Phantom Menace??? Seriously???

The Phantom Menace was my first Star Wars movie. I can't explain to you how wondrous it was seeing it, from the amazing worlds/planets....to lightsabers, Jedi's, the force, lightsaber battles, deflecting bullets from light sabers.

darth I get what you say and I really like star wars and also read about the expanded universe. I´ve whatched episode iv over 20 times, it is problably one of my most watched films ever along side LOTR but I still wouldnt call them the best I´ve ever seen or my favorites

I would call them my favourites because I've got most enjoyment from watching them....thats my favorite.

Yes The Godfather had better acting Star Wars Episodes 1 and 3.....but I enjoyed watching the star wars films more so they were better for me even if on a technical level they aren't as good as The Godfather.
