[QUOTE]Originally posted by Masao: [QB] Good points. Star Wars recently appeared on Time Magazine's 100 top movies list (compiled by two of their critics) and was also in the top 10 of the American Film Institute's favorites list. I have no shame in publicly stating that Star Wars is by far my favorite, even if some people say I like it for the wrong reasons! (I also liked Matrix 3 better than Matrix 2). A poll right now at Trek Today, however, has Empire (1st place) outpolling the original (third place) by 2 to 1. I absolutely hated Jedi when I first saw it and have only seen it twice in the last 20 years. In addition to those fucking Ewoks it's got burping jokes, that vagina with teeth (Sarlac), dopey slapstick deaths (of Boba Fett, etc), some really dodgy matte work (Luke running in front of Rancor), action even more divided among different locals, story-stopping visits to Dagobah, more spectral Jedis, too many rubbery aliens, a disappoint revelation of Anakin's face, even more soap opera and convoluted explanations, and the same ending as Star Wars.
