The Empire Strikes Back 35th anniversary

[Hordakfan]

This year is the 35th anniversary to one of the best sci-fi, fantasy and adventure films of all time and one of the greatest sequels ever thanks to a well written script, great direction, Yoda and all that.

There's an entire forum specifically for the Star Wars Saga that this'll probably get moved into.

But I agree. Arguably the greatest sequel of all time. Personally, it's this and Godfather 2 and then a steep drop off.

TESB is one of the best sequels ever.

T2, Aliens and TDK disagree.

Then they can take it up with me.

Those others are also some of my favorites. But I feel that GF2 and ESB are the standards.

I remember hearing at one point that only two movies made money during the summer of 1980: "The Empire Strikes Back" and "Airplane!".

If Empire had been released today there would have been absolutely no way to keep it a secret that Vader was Luke's father. I wonder if/how that would have changed things...
