Sinister Reality

Rating: 10/10 (5 September 2000)

Hello Friends,
The Empire Strikes back is the best of the series because it is the "reality check". The bad guys get the upper hand and the Empire take control with flash and fury which ultimately sets the stage for a big showdown. I am rather hoping that the second installment will be similar and let us see the dark side more vividly. Just how evil did these folks have to become in order to kill almost all of the Jedi? I always thought that Darth Vader was infinitely more interesting than any member of the Rebel Alliance. This movie is a complete downer but wonderfully constructed and written. It is easy to see why folks anticipated the release of the sixth (3rd) installment. The ESB started a war that seemed hard for the Rebels to beat...but then again, what do I know?? Enjoy :)
