Meta r/StarWars Official Watch Order Discussion Thread
So we haven't had an official watch order discussion thread in many years, so we figure its time to update the one in the FAQ. There are various other links in the FAQ, the Wookieepedia timeline of canon media, and various other discussion threads and topics over the years including a link to just searching the sub which people find challenge apparently. Also as a reminder, the Wookieepedia timeline of canon media can be sorted via the table on that page by release order or chronologically (if you decide to go that route).
A lot of the new Disney+ content brings new eyes to Star Wars all the time, and new movies will eventually too. We want to get a bit more aggressive with automod removals and referrals to the FAQ for these questions about watch order. So let's hash it out here in the comments. We will sticky this for a while and eventually it will just be linked in the FAQ along with the other topics and maybe in the sidebar too. And like some of other stickies about rules, spoilers, and new episode discussion guidelines, we may trot out this link and sticky it from time to time.
As a general rule the sub typically recommends for new viewers to watch in release order, especially for the movies. This is the semi-consensus from the fandom, and you will routinely see this as the most upvoted and posted response.
With that being said what we would like to do here also discuss other options, and possible orders to also toss in the TV media as well. Should you watch Andor first and then Rogue One before the OT? Should movies like Solo be done in release order or chronological? Should you watch The Clone Wars TV show before the PT? So on and so forth...
So lets have a solid discussion about this and make it a solid resource for those who may be new to Star Wars.

Movies It would be funny if Anakin did have biological father and Shmi’s comment was moreso her not wanting to give Qui Gon the answer he’s demanding because it’s none of his business.
I know people are going to bring up the prophecy but even though Anakin is still the chosen one as shown in return of the Jedi we’re never actually given a solicitation of the prophecy beyond “he will bring balance to the force”. The movies never say “the chosen one must be of virgin birth”. Even George Lucas has said that whatever way Anakin was conceived doesn’t change the fact that he still fulfilled the prophecy.
It could be Qui Gon just over reading this and thinking the prophecy is more complex than it actually is.

General Discussion Ariana Greenblatt absolutely crushed it as young Ahsoka. A live-action limited series covering the highlight arcs of the clone wars would absolutely rip.
Seeing live-action young Ahsoka was awesome. I know the clone wars have already been pretty heavily tread and re-tread, but if we get any more this would be the way to do it, especially if they can get Temuera Morrison back to voice some of the clones alongside Dee Bradley Baker, and keep the plot down to just the key arcs and cut the filler episodes as needed.

Merchandise Had a fun visit to Skywalker Ranch General Store in SF
They have some great merch from Skywalker Ranch, Skywalker Vineyards, and various SW episodes. I was surprised by all of the fun stuff. Of course, the Yoda statue is nearby too.
I'm just sad that the TSA confiscated my jar of Skywalker jelly on my flight home 😢

General Discussion Three Questions About Ahsoka
How do you think her story will end? And how much more content do you think her character can/should generate?
How do you want her story to end?
For those that think her character has continued for too long, how and when do you think her story should’ve ended?

General Discussion Would you enjoy a series set in the Rule of Two era where two rivalling Masters and Apprentices have to try and beat each other without attracting the attention of the Republic or Jedi?

General Discussion Obviously we as fans know he just hadn’t been created yet. But in-universe, why didn’t Vader try hiring Cad Bane in ESB?
He knows he’s skilled enough to take on a Jedi, and with Luke not being very experienced, Bane probably could have whupped the whole crew of the Falcon, except maybe Chewie.

Movies This is still my favorite fight in the Sequel trilogy.
Source: Force Awakens
I like this fight out of all the fights in the Sequel trilogy because it felt like it mixed well with both the context and how lightsabers were done in the Sequel trilogy. Lightsabers were generally treated more weighty or less elegant than the previous movies, which for me did make some fight scenes weird, but works here since Finn isn't experienced with a lightsaber and thus would be using it awkwardly like a club similar to what the Stormtrooper is doing and it makes everything make sense for why both characters are moving the way they are.
The only thing I didn't like was how quickly it ended.
