Umm, yes they did. They released episode 7 and then went back and did the rogue squadron movie that is set just before episode 4. Then they released episode 8 and then went back and made a han solo prequel movie. They have been doing things out of order in this series for years. Have you even been watching?

Have you realized yet that Hayden Christensen never played Darth Vader?
(Technically, I guess he played Darth Vader for about 10 seconds in Episode III.)

I never claimed that Disney made episodes 1-4, but I did reference the fact that they own those movies. You made a claim "Disney didn't make anything out of order" that was demonstrably false, and I pointed out that you were wrong to make that claim. Grow up.

The star wars movie from 1977 was the fourth movie in the series, hence it's literally called "Episode IV: A New Hope" at the opening of the film. In any episodic story, the "first" episode is always episode 1. That's a pretty standard convention. So even though Disney made them out of order, the first star wars movie is still episode 1, because that's where the story actually begins.

meh, so I flubbed a detail. what's the big deal? Disney owns those movies and have the rides at their parks. Forgive me for not being a big star wars nerd. Talk about toxic fandom...

All that matters that you know the difference between Star Wars and Star Trek. Getting them intermixed have have you exiled to the spice mines of Kessel or the penal colony on Rura Penthe.

Here's the deal, if you're going to high-hat everyone with a nerdly point, at least get it right. Now you just appear to be an incompetent nerd. Clumsily trying to cover up the error didn't help with that either.
Subpar trolling, very subpar.

well actually, Tomato and Reflector both said I'm definitely not a nerd, agreeing with my previous post in the process. So if you're going to name-call, please reach a consensus about it, mmkay?

Also, I didn't know Phil Kessel came from a line of miners. Maybe that's why he seems so distracted from hockey lately? Is his family business in some kind of trouble?

Sure, it will be the first item on the agenda at the next meeting of Central Committee.
If the prequels weren't a classic example of a boomer screwup, I don't know what is. Can't imagine why you'd want to emphasize them.

Well actually, the first Star Wars movie (episode 1) was made in 1999; Hayden Christensen was born in 1981. So yes, he was born before first one was made. He also played Darth Vader in episodes 2, 3, and 6 (although in 6 you only see him at the end when he force-appears as Luke is burning Vader's corpse). I thought he also appeared as Vader in the Rogue movie, but I guess Disney couldn't afford him. Oh well.
