It was tough waiting for the return of Grogu and Din Djarin, but all is well in the world now that the third season of The Mandalorian is in full swing. Between that and Star Wars Celebration coming next week, what better time to ask you what your favorite Star Wars movie or TV show is?
Do you think Grogu has helped make The Mandalorian the best Star Wars thing ever? Or is your top pick The Empire Strikes Back or The Last Jedi? We’ve selected 28 Star Wars movies and TV shows to compete in this “Face-Off,” and we’ve chosen to focus on the big hitters and remove the smaller shorts, documentaries, and more (although many are wonderful of course). Will you choose Andor over A New Hope? The Star Wars Holiday Special over Obi-Wan Kenobi? The choice is yours…
(And don’t forget, you can pass on a Face-Off round if you don’t know a movie or TV show by just hitting “skip” at the bottom of the page.)

What Is a Face-Off?
Like the name suggests, a Face-Off pits two things against one another and you decide which one is the superior of the two. In this case, you are voting to determine what the best Star Wars movie or TV show is. It’s possible to see certain films and shows multiple times while voting, so you can keep voting for your favorites to ensure they get ranked higher than the rest. IGN’s resident team of Star Wars experts pre-selected 28 movies and shows for you to choose from. These get randomly paired up and each time you pick a winner, it’s tracked.
How Is the Winner Determined?
When voting ends on April 6, we will tally up the total number of “wins” and “losses” each film and show has, and create a ranked list based on your choices that will be revealed on April 7. The movie or series that won the most matchups will be crowned the “winner,” and in the event of a tied number of “wins,” the show or film with the least “losses” will take the top spot. If you continue to keep voting for your favorites, they’ll have a better chance of ranking high on the list. You can vote as many times as you want until the Face-Off closes.
How Do I Know When I’ve Clicked Through Everything?
It’s difficult to know when you’ve seen every Star Wars TV series and movie included because they are matched randomly and there are so many possible match-ups. Playing until you vote for all your favorites or ensuring that certain shows or films don’t get in the winner’s circle are different options you can take with a Face-Off. By deciding the winner throughout all these match-ups, you’re ensuring that your picks for the best Star Wars TV series or movie will have a fighting chance to reach the top of the list.
Which Star Wars Movies and TV Shows Have Been Included?
The list of Star Wars movies and TV shows has been decided by IGN staff, and we opted to keep this particular battle from that galaxy far, far away to the biggest movies and shows. While great, we’ve chosen to leave out the LEGO Star Wars shows and those geared towards a much younger audience, most Star Wars shorts that don’t have much story, documentaries, etc. This left us with 28 contenders, and we think this will be the best way to crown the greatest Star Wars movie or show. Oh, and we left out video games because we previously had a whole Star Wars video game Face-Off!
