Undoubtedly, this is the best movie in the history of the Star Wars franchise. The Empire Strikes Back is the fifth installment (or, episode, if you will) in the series, but it's the second one made. There's so many things to love about it. So many iconic scenes, unforgettable lines, and riveting characters. Makes me excited to see how the new one will be, but no matter what we will always have this one to look back on as the mark of quality. "I love this movie," I could say. "I know," Han Solo could reply.
Science-fiction action epic directed by Irvin Kershner and written by Leigh Brackett, Lawrence Kasdan, and George Lucas in 1980.
Starring: Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Billy Dee Williams, Anthony Daniels, David Prowse, James Earl Jones, Kenny Baker, Peter Mayhew, Frank Oz, Jeremy Bulloch, and Alec Guinness.
Tune in Monday for number forty-seven!
Great movie and a favorite of mine, too. Going to have to do a marathon rewatch of them all before the new one comes out. In less than a year now!
