      Have you heard of the "alternate" way to watch the start wars series? It involves the first 6 5 movies in order to tell anakins story instead of luke's. I tried it and thought it was a pretty good way of viewing, maybe Youve heard of it? If not, ill elaborate. (For clarity we will label the movies in the story's chronological order, episode 1-3 is the new trilogy, 4-6 is OG trilogy)

      First, watch episode 4 and 5, with vaders reveal. Then, watch episode 2 and 3, which function as flashbacks to adolescent Anakin and the story of his fall (ep1 is skipped in this viewing).

      Finally, come back to episode 6 for his redemption.

      I thought it was cool anyway, and this viewing method makes it easier for me, a crotchety OG only type, to enjoy the prequels a bit

        That's interesting, not sure I'll do it (big time commitment), unless I cut out all of the non-vader scenes in the OG. The last time I watched the prequels was to get references for star wars droids to maybe 3D print my own star wars character.
