RE: Six reasons Why The Empire Strikes Back is the best Star Wars movie
Don't be an Anakin. Admit Episode I: The Phantom Menace is THE BEST!
There are too many reasons to list.
Bring on the haters :D
This will remain the best unless movies are made on the Darth Bane trilogy.
Episode 7 was a disgrace. We should relabel it and give it to the Star Trek community.
I looked up your intro post and you're for real on your love for Episode 1. Interesting.
I'm also a Va Tech alum. Although long before you.
There are a lot things of Episode 1 that I like. Darth Maul, Podrace, and Sebulba was cool, just to name a few.
Best Star Wars movie though? Nope.
My love of Star Wars began as a child and I didn't realize how great Episode I is till years later and after reading tons of Star Wars books. It is such a critical plot building story. It gains so much more importance and demands respect once the Darth Plagueis book has been read, which essentially comes right before Episode I (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Darth_Plagueis_(novel))
Awesome! Always glad to meet a fellow Hokie :)
I love the prequel trilogy for its complex plot. Palpatine playing everyone off of each other is just amazing. I love the new places, and creatures of the trilogy. And I certainly don't hate Episode 1. Just not my favorite. I've always thought it needed more Darth Maul, and it needed to show the people on Naboo dying in the camps to give it some weight. I respect it a lot that you profess love for TPM.
@slickwilly I now challenge you to write post about why The Phantom Menace is the best Star Wars movie.
