Some might argue that the third one wasn't that good, but, the characters, story, and thrilling finale keeps it watchable and fun.

The last film of the original trilogy was by far the best 'feel good' film of my childhood (The boy who could fly was probably second). Although you wanted more, it was great ending on a high, everything in the universe was good. That was until greed and a lack of imagination too...( read more)

Probably my fav as a kid because of the endor battle and jabba. There's alot here to like, the whole Jabba line with Rancor and Sarlac battles are just cinematic gold, they are brilliant fun and strip any modern film easily. After that you have the brilliant Endor forest battle a...( read more)

July 15, 2007Though I like Empire the best, this is still a very good star wars movie. All of them are good. If someone says they never saw star wars I would drag them to the tv, glue them to a chair, and make them watch all 6. Preferably the original trilogy, but I like them all... Especially episode 5... 6 is good too. It's star wars, what's not to like?

July 8, 2007This was my least favorite in the trilogy,but I still loved it and probably viewed it 50 times. I think I was 15 when it was released. If I was able to change the film, the Ewoks would have been 86ed and replaced by Whookies on planet Kashiek. You just cant get much drama out of a teddy bear.
