The end of 2015 saw The Star Wars saga pick up where it left off with a new trilogy, thanks to the release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens. And the hype of our collective geekdom reached feverish heights.
Will the rest of the films in the new trilogy manage to redeem the tarnished Star Wars universe after the last three underwhelming prequels? Only time will tell, but if they manage to pull it off, it will be quite the feat seeing as expectations are still sky-high.
Making a satisfying collection of three films is something very few series achieve, because it requires exceptional story control, characters you’ll care about over many hours and many years, plus a writer/director’s ability to tie everything together without necessarily knowing the end of Part Three when they’re making the beginning of Part One. These, in my view, are the 10 trilogies that have done it best.
