I don't accept anything extra-cinematic as canonical. I'm a Star Wars fundie.

Which did you like better? "Jedi" or "The Empire Strikes Back"?

yes the only star wars canon was the movies, of which there are only 3.

Ugh. I couldn't even pick. I love them both. if my arm were twisted, I'd probably say Return of the Jedi, but I just love them all.


I think the prequel series had the potential to be intense and epic, but I just can't get past the poor acting and silly story lines.

If Lucas hadn't worked on the prequel himself, I'd be inclined to agree, but he did, so I do not.

If Lucas had been smarter, he'd have developed that part to turn it into a Christian allegory. Then we wouldn't have hated the prequel trilogy as much.

I go away from this thread for a few hours and now it is four pages. Cool. But sadly tl;dr for the moment. At least the topic is now Star Wars!

I'm an Empire Strikes Back guy. One big reason is cuz the yub nub song at the end of Jedi reminds me that I'm watching a film by the guy who invented Jar Jar Binks.

Empire did have the best ending.

Well played sir, well played.

Although I do maintain Lucas is smart. He did maintain the copyrights for merchandising purposes when Fox had so little faith in A New Hope's success...and how many Star Wars toys continue to flood the markets today?

Tore my heart apart when I saw a re-remastered version.

This would have made it okay.
