My Favorite of the Six-Part Series

Rating: 10/10 (25 September 2011)

I fluctuate between a nine and ten for this classic film. I liked the Star Wars movies more back in the 70's and 80's, so it might just be my tastes. However, Jedi remains my favorite.
Why? Another fine story, with a triple battle at the end of the film: Ewoks & rebels versus the Empire ground forces, Vader vs Skywalker, and the aerial attack on Death Star 2. Wow! Nice that Alec Guiness got to reprise his famous character. The updated version with the big change of Anakin at the end of the film, as well as different music, is bearable.
The opening sequences with Jabba the Hutt are terrific. Boba Fett was good to see, but a sad end for this noble bounty hunter. I like Max Rebo, that blue elephant-like keyboardist!
