I guess I'm just a sucker for a happy ending, but I watched this masterpiece on repeat as a child, thanks to the memorable scenes at Jabba's palace, through the Ewok-infested moon of Endor and on to the final battle between rebel and Imperial forces.

It's just the f... read more

I remember once during a summer me and an ol’ buddy had this film on in the background 6 times in one night. Return of the Jedi was my favourite back in the school days as it restored hope and had enough going on in it to keep my youthful mind occupied. At the beginning it reintroduces all the characters and shows them at their best. Han bargaining out of a difficult situation, Luke bettering hi... read more

Yeah, I know that this is considered the weakest of the original series, but at the time of it's initial release, for me, there was was nothing more important than the Force Fever that was sweeping all of society back then.
I don't care that the Ewoks were corny, stupid & had a hit song at the time (if anyone out there has the 12-inch extended dance mix to this, contact me & you will have ... read more

" "Luke: There's nothing to see. I used to live here, you know. Han Solo: You're gonna die here, you know. Convenient." Date: February 20th Likes: Solo being a sassy bitch throughout the entire movie. (Also applicable to the other two movies.) Dislikes: Less powerful than its predecessors."

Films and the critics who hate them (732 movies items)

"With its feints at horror and pathos, the third Star Wars film is the most Disney-esque in its emotional outline, yet that outline is buried beneath an obnoxiously hyped-up pace that reduces the emotions to rubble. - Dave Kehr, Chicago Reader Chewbacca doesn't have enough dialogue. - Cynthia Fuchs, Philadelphia City Paper"

Movie Reviews (part 4) (50 movies items)

" The Ups: That Luke has gone around in two movies wanting a incestous relationship with his sister and that she has responded a little on too. Mostly good effects. Satisfying hero moments for all the cast, except for Leia but she gets to wear THAT BIKINI. The Downs: After a terrific setup it all falls apart. Cute teddybears, villain with a change of heart. Another Death Star. Cute ending where all Jedis are seen as ghosts. The blue screen chase in a forest just looks fake even for it's time."
