SO since Star Wars knowledge has been tested recently, and, the May the 4th be with you bull shit just passed by, I think it is time for this thread to destroy the LOST thread. Come here to talk all Star Wars and feel like a nerd.

First object of discussion

Best Star Wars movie.

About fucking time really.

Empire Strikes Back...EASILY.

I've seen this flick probably 50 or 60 times. This film has Vader at his pimpest (outside of the Expanded Universe).
And how can we forget about Lando and the Cloud City of Bespin? I'll expand on it later.

Empire hands down. The only thing it lacks is a good Death Star attack, but the Hoth battle and the Falcon in an asteroid field are more than adequate substitutes.

Anyone watch the Attack of The Clones animated series? I haven't seen the 2nd season, but season one is ridiculously better than any of the prequels.

10 best things about Empire

Favorite quote:

Darth Vader: Calrissian. Take the princess and the Wookie to my ship.
Lando: You said they'd be left at the city under my supervision!
Darth Vader: I am altering the deal. Pray I don't alter it any further.

I'm still partial to the first (or fourth) movie: It's the most perfect of the six, and the only one that could stand on its own without a person wondering what's going on. Plus I remember vividly how it completely rocked my world when I was 12.

Agree with FuzzBall about the fourth (or first) one being the lamest.

I think IV is the best because, as CG said, it stands alone. In context, Empire is just that damn good and then some.

II is the worst. The other two make a lot of sense, especially in the development of Anaking (let the lynching begin) but II just adds nothing of relevance to the series. You could remove two all together and watch I from III and pretty much get the same gist of the storyline. "Where did the Stormtroopers come from?" "They bought them, don't worry about it, not worth watching."

My favorite line of the series, which is also a bit comical in context: “These blast points — too accurate for sandpeople. Only imperial stormtroopers are so precise.” -- Really, Obi Wan? Really?

Star Wars Episode IV is the better movie but Empire did introduce him:

Damn am I the only one who likes Return best? You guys are making me insecure about my Star Wars fandom. Really though creature feature, Luke is a badass, everything gets resolved (or so we think), and Princess Leia slave outift. What more could you want from a film?


On another note A New Hope can not be the best movie sorry
