All Star Wars Movies Ranked From Best to Worst

I originally posted this article on May 24th, 2018. This was the day before Solo: A Star Wars Story officially premiered in the United States.

Since then, I’ve had some interesting conversations with people about my list (and theirs). I’m reevaluating my thoughts on all the films. I doubt any of the new films will ever surpass Star Wars or The Empire Strikes Back but after listening to some analysis of The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi I may need to reconsider my rankings.

Marvel Netflix TV Series Ranked

Sad Little Rover – Spirit [Comic]

Sad Little Rover
[xkcd]
Such an amazing technological accomplishment!

About Spirit

One of two rovers launched in 2003 to explore Mars and search for signs of past life, Spirit far outlasted her planned 90-day mission. Among her myriad discoveries, Spirit found evidence that Mars was once much wetter than it is today and helped scientists better understand the Martian wind.

In May 2009, the rover became embedded in soft soil at a site called “Troy” with only five working wheels to aid in the rescue effort. After months of testing and carefully planned maneuvers, NASA ended efforts to free the rover and eventually ended the mission on May 25, 2011. [NASA]
