"Never seen any of them but surely you would watch in the order that they came out?

You could do that but that makes the storyline in the wrong order... tricky choice   |

"So with the new (and final) Star Wars due out in December I was thinking of watching all the others from now until then to prep for it.... question is.... what order?

The last jedi isn't the final one, they have episode 9 lined up already, the new films were always chalked up as a trilogy.
Always watch in release order myself, the classics will always be the best |

The Last Jedi isn't the last Star Wars movie, there's one more to come in 2 years time to finish that trilogy.
Next year we get a stand alone young Han Solo movie.
In 3 years time there will be another stand alone, no topic announced yet, Disney just said they'd do 6 movies in as many years. Rogue One last year was the first of the standalone, though it did obviously link with episode 4.
Anyway...
Watching them in numeric order at least gets The Phantom Menace out of the way first, though it might put you off continuing.
Watching in release order puts TPM in the middle.
There is an alternate order of 4, 5, then flashback to 1, 2, 3, then back to 6 and 7.
With any order you choose, you can slot Rogue One immediately before episode 4. It isnt critical,but does expand things a bit.
Sorry, I'm a Star Wars nerd  |

ah! last week I watched all 8 films. My order:
Episode I, II, III, Rogue One, IV, V, VI, Force Awakens.
Essentially, chronological order. I found it a useful way for the story to unfold.
However, something about Force Awakens just didn't seem right. Disney I think have ruined it....

Correct The Last Jedi is not the last film and in regards to order - pure genius - There is an alternate order of 4, 5, then flashback to 1, 2, 3, then back to 6 and 7.
It does put TPM 3 but there is enough to watch after to block it out |

More surprising is the omission of the canon Clone Wars movie (and following TV series), which gave us one of Star Wars' greatest female roles and brought in a whole new generation of viewers. Slot that in between episodes 2 & 3.
Best skip The Holiday Special though. |

Hang on rewind a sec. The final one?!
It's not is it? The last star wars film was an off shoot wasn't it as it based just before the original 3 to steel the death star plans.
Then they had episode 7 before it with kai loren so I guess this Dec is episode 8 which follows on from the ending showing Luke.
That can't be the last one surely, is there not an episode 9? I'm distraught lol |
