Studies show that men think about sex every 7 seconds. I do my best to eat hotdogs in under 6, just so things don't get weird.

Please allow me to introduce Myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man's soul and faith

Just this order:

4, 5, 6

If we disagree, it's nothing personal, opinions are opinions.
Antagonizing me to build a false sense of worth is so damn cute.

Brighten your day with science.

"Life is constantly fleeting from your grasp even from the very day it's bestowed upon you, but the shadow of death is always there, waiting for its chance to take you away."

"Even though many may not think so, ignorance and innocence are one and the same. The only difference is that one sounds nicer."

"I once knew a man who spent his entire life contemplating where we go after our death....it's a shame he realized it a second too late to tell anyone."

Start with one, end with six. Sure, the drop in visual quality after the third episode will be a bit annoying to a first time viewer, but at least it'll make sense.

"Right now it is raining methane on Titan. The planet Uranus is, hilariously, orbiting the sun sideways while Venus spins backwards. We sit here on a planet marked with collisions, rocked by earthquakes, shaken by storms. A planet doomed to be fried in radiation as its magnetic fields collapse, until the sun grows and leaves nothing of the earth but dust. Here we sit, glasses on our noses, inhalers in our pockets, braces on our teeth, and we say "Behold the perfect ORDER of it all!""

If you loved your Girlfriend, you wouldn't show her the prequels.

Unsuccessfully trying to bring science and reason to The Flood...

Definitely start with 4,5,6.

Starting with the prequels is not giving her a fair chance to actually like the series.

I think you should wait for 7 to come out then watch 1-7 with her, if she doesn't stay with you until it comes out then you saved yourself from letting an unworthy watch it.

I really don't see why everyone has such a distaste for the prequels.

  • 12.10.2012 11:03 AM PDT

Isn't watching it 4,5,2,3,6 and skipping out 1, a technique to make it seem like the prequels are a flashback or something like that?

Shouldn't it be 4,5,6,1,2,3?

Why would you put 6 in the end and leave out 1?

I decided I'll show her the prequels first.

Good luck to you sir, I'm trying to get my GF just to sit and watch the first 5min of Episode 4....it's an ongoing battle...one I think I will never win.

SHe hasn't watched them? Then for the love of god DON'T SHOW HER THE PREQUELS FIRST

Quality aside, it completley ruins that big twist in episode 5.

It's meant to make it seem like a darth vader flash back of the clone wars, at the end of Empire strikes back. one would seem irelvent as it isn't part of the clone wars.

Me, either, as a lifelong Star Wars fan. Episode II is complete shyte, I get that, but the other two really aren't that bad.

Recon Number 54 -
If they are still looking, then while holding the snarl, I let drool start to drip from my mouth, I stand, curl my fingers into claws and with a hunched over crouch, I then make slow and deliberate steps towards them. When I get close enough, I let them hear my agonized and gasping growls and then, if they continue to stare, when I get within arm's reach? I kiss them on the nose, and run away giggling.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6.

I actually didn't mind the sequels all that much. They were good in parts. But for someone who might not be all that into the genre, starting with the obviously better 3 films is the best way to do it.

I don't think my girlfriend really wants to watch them, but she'll watch them with me anyway.

I'm going to start with Ep 4 and watch each movie every Friday and she will be a Star Wars fan by the end of it.

Episode 1 was just as bad as episode 2. Three was a step up, yes. But definitely not as good as the originals.
