All 7 Star Wars Episodes Ranked From Best to Worst

If you're a huge Star Wars fan like me, you have your favorite episode along with your least favorite, so I decided to share my ranking of the current 7 Star Wars episodes from the best to the worst.

1. Return of the Jedi

My personal favorite. Anakin was the jedi who returned, Luke and his group of rebels saved the galaxy, and this final scene? A real tear jerker. Plus who doesn't love watching the Emperor get thrown to his death.

2. The Empire Strikes Back

Luke finally found out that Darth Vader was his dad, Han gets frozen into carbonite, Lando makes his debut as well as Boba Fett and we get to see our favorite imperial walkers on Hoth.

3. A New Hope

Darth Vader really makes an entrance, Old Ben is back and it's the first Star Wars movie, come on. Plus the Death Star gets destroyed and we get to see Princess Leia's infamous classic look.

4. Revenge of the Sith

My favorite of the new movies, it gives a lot of information to help figure out many of the questions we have from the original trilogies, but it's not the best. Anakin force chokes Padme who later dies of a broken heart and Obi-Wan practically destroys his apprentice who is like a brother to him. All of the jedi are killed but 2, Yoda and Obi-Wan both go into hiding and yeah...not cool.

5. The Force Awakens

Personally, I was quite impressed with Episode VII as I saw it in theaters 4 times. However, Luke wasn't present nearly as much as we thought he'd be, and Han's death? Can't get over it. The classic characters seemed to have been overshadowed by the new ones and as a fan of the original trilogy, I didn't like that too much.

6. Attack of the Clones

Episode II was a let down in many ways, Anakin is slowly turning to the dark side while continuing his forbidden romance with Padme and his jealousy of Obi-Wan continues to thrive. Count Dooku gets away, many jedi are lost in the Battle of Geonosis and Darth Sidious is gaining more control over the galactic senate.

7. The Phantom Menace

I think all true Star Wars fans can agree that thus far, Episode I is the worst. We have an unnecessary hour of pod-racing and we lose Qui-Gon Jinn but the worst? JarJar Binks...not the best move, George Lucas.

Although I can't give my full and complete analysis of each movie, this gives you the idea. Share your Star Wars movie rankings! And May the Force be With You.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
