Star Wars

"May the force be with you".

As promised earlier to bring you the whole update on the Star Wars Franchise for those who haven't seen it yet, so here it is. It would really a pleasure for me if after reading this you guys watched the whole franchise. And do leave a comment at the end of the page to let us know. I was really shocked to know during the release of latest Star Wars film Rogue One that how many of people still haven't watched the star wars yet and have no freaking idea about the franchise and more over claim themselves sci-fi geeks. So let's begin and May the force be with us.

Star Wars is an American sci-fi epic space classic franchise centered on characters and story developed by George Lucas and depicts the adventure of characters “A long time ago in a Galaxy far far away.” The first film of the installment came in the year way back 1977 titled Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope (1977) followed by Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back (1980) and Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi (1983) [Must have definitely heard about Princess Leia and the gold bikini scene, yup you are at the right place], these three films constitute of the original trilogy. After that, there was a prequel trilogy which received mixed reviews from the fans all around the world but one thing common being that was the excitement the series provided. More recently a new trilogy began with the release of Star Wars Episode VII; The Force Awakens (2015) and a few spin-off also planned in between. All seven films were nominated for the major awards shows all around the Globe including the Academy Awards and have a commercial combined grossing of 7.075 billion USD.
Many ask to question that if we are starting to watch the series where should we start from or many other accumulated questions. I would be answering all those. Now moving on to discuss each film separately in the order of their release and the order that you should watch.

1. Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope (1977)

Nineteen years after the formation of the Empire, Luke Skywalker is thrust into the struggle of the Rebel Alliance when he meets Obi-Wan Kenobi, who has lived for years in seclusion on the desert planet of Tatooine.
