Why is "Empire" considered best?

[QUOTE]Originally posted by PsyLiam: [QB] I don't think you can underestimate the cliff hanger ending. When I got my mates who had never seen the films to watch them over a couple of weeks a few years ago, they were [i]all[/i] surprised when Empire actually finished. One declared that it was "fucking cheeky" and that if he'd have had to wait another 3 years, he'd have gone and kicked Lucus in the neck. Empire may be the film with a "middle, middle and middle", but Jedi is the one that goes "end, middle, end". It suffers from the fact that the first 30 minutes is basically "rescue Han", and then the film stops and starts again with "attack the Empire". Vadar and co don't even pop up again until after Jabba is disposed of (apart from the opening 2 minutes, obviously). I think it suffers the most there...after the tension of Empire it's just a bit too silly. On the other hand, once Luke arrives on the Death Star things pick up tremendously. There's real tension and excitement there. For one of my friends, that part is the only bit in any film where he actually likes Luke. (And finally, it's obvious to point out but..."I love you", "I know" is brilliant beyond words.) [/QB][/QUOTE]
