I was thinking of going in episode order 1-6, but I think the special effects would be disappointing by the time we got to 4-6.


Under no circumstances should Episode I or any of the prequels be the first Star Wars film you should show your kid.

I'm of the firm belief that episodes IV-VI exist, but another poster had a nice idea on the order

IV
V
II
III
VI

Start off with the original, then Empire since this keeps the twists in the story alive (although I'm sure he knows them already, knowingly or not). Skip Episode I because it literally adds nothing. Then go to Episode II (even though its the worst film of the saga), and finally III. This will actually make it a good twist that Luke has a twin and then he'll be shocked that its later. Then go to the conclusion of "Return of the Jedi".

Yeah now that I think about it, his kid is 9 and not 5. He can probably handle the originals.

So yeah, I agree. 4-6, then 1-3.

Not everyone hated Phantom Menace. I thought Darth Maul was pretty freakin' sweet
