It’s never too late to read the IGN guide to watching the Star Wars films and television series in order. And if you’re new to guides like this, or just aren’t great with reading words, it can be hard to understand. But don’t worry! We here at Hard Drive have got you covered with a foolproof, step-by-step approach to reading the IGN guide.
This is the Hard Drive guide to the IGN guide to watching Star Wars in chronological order.
1. Read The Headline
You might be tempted to scroll through the article and start looking at pictures two thirds down the page. Fight this urge. Scroll back to the top of the web page and first read what is called “the headline.” You will know you have found the headline when you see words that are bigger and thicker than any other on the page. Headlines are great because they’re simple and say what’s to come, like a spoiler that you want.
2. Look At The Big Image
Ignore the smaller words below the headline because they don’t matter. Instead take a look at the big image that follows. If you’re thinking, “Wow! Look at all the colors and even bigger words than before!” that means you’re in the right place. Enjoy it for a few seconds and then keep scrolling.
3. Read The Intro Paragraphs
You’re probably so excited about pictures at this point that you don’t want to read any more words, and we get that. But please take a minute to read the few collections of words underneath that big, fun picture. These are called “introductory paragraphs,” and we know, they’re so boring. But hang in there. Words, when grouped together into what are called sentences that are then grouped together into what are called paragraphs, often make looking at pictures even better. Trust us on this one.
4. Enjoy The List
First off, congratulations for making it through those horrible intro paragraphs. Now you get to enjoy the rest of the website! But before you start panicking at the sight of all the paragraphs in the list, listen to us because we have great news. None of those paragraphs matter! Like everything else on this page, those paragraphs were created by artificial intelligence, which is a fancy term for “smart computers doing their own thing.” Just read the titles of the Star Wars films and television series on the list and enjoy the images that accompany some of those titles. You’ve earned it.
5. That’s it!
Most articles end with something called a conclusion, which is a paragraph that wraps up everything in the article and creates a satisfying sense of finality for the reader. But we have more great news: this guide does not have a conclusion. When they trained the artificial intelligence to create this page, they said, “This web site only exists to generate advertising dollars. Don’t try too hard to make it good.” And the smart computer didn’t! There is no conclusion and there are no more words. The article just ends.
