Still the best Star Wars Film


As I do every 1st of January, I watch this one first, and the subsequent days, the rest of the original trilogy.

I just finished watching this, and I had a smile throughout the film. It's my favourite film of all time for so many reasons, and in my view still the best Star Wars film.

It's just glorious.

Nostalgia is very strong with this one...

It's my favorite too. Though I'd rank Empire right alongside.

The other Star Wars films are good to varying degrees but never great.

And by "Star Wars films" I'm referring to the first six, the other trilogy doesn't exist as far as I'm concerned.

I agree. What a nice tradition you have.

reply

Thank you.

reply

Yes it is.

It’s by far the best one. The first half of empire is good too. Then it can end.

reply

Why the first half? Where would you see it ending? There’s not much point to the movie if you cut out everything that happens at Cloud City.
