I always liked Return of the Jedi
well these kinda threads have been done before... but ill play along :p
first of all... i think as a real star wars fan you shouldnt choose.... would you choose favorites among your childeren? :D :p
if i have to chose. Return of the jedi.
because of the space battle and the duel.
I'm a Star Wars fan, but I'm not so obsessed that I can't pick which one I like the best
well i must say that all movies have a quality that makes them equally fun to watch
I'd have to say ESB!
Its always a hard choice between ESB and RotJ..!
-Clemme
I said it before, I'll say it once more.....
ANH
ANH is pretty good, I never really like ESB muc though
I have a feeling I'm gonna see plenty of these threads...
Ah well.
My favourite is ESB, but only just. I love them ALL.
Yep....you had better get used to them! :p
Why aren't you in bed btw? It has to be late there! :)
I've been feeling like crap all day so I had a nap this afternoon, and now of course I can't sleep. I have a feeling I'm gonna be up pretty late again tonight.

I can tell you what will win. ESB. ANH will only have one vote, by me, and RotJ will trail ESB by a few votes... I too, love them all, but ANH has that nostalgia, even though I saw ESB a month later... :D
esb. Star Destroyers, Ground Assault, Vader choking the heck out of people, Cloud City, Boba Fett, dramatic saber duel, NEED I SAY MORE?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!!!
Out of the FULLY original movies I like Return of the Jedi. Out of the Special Editions I like The Empire Strikes Back
Can't choose at all. My favourite out of the original 3 films changes periodically, depending on which one I'm in the mood to watch. ANH is more of an introductory story, ESB being the funniest and a good link between the beginning and end, and ROTJ the most action packed and climactic.
I don't see them as seperate films. Just one big one that takes a whopping 9 hours to watch:xp:hehe
out of the special editions, my fav. would be ESB.
ROTJ, the SE would have been better if GL would have included the B-wing scenes. but i like the other two almost as equally as ROTJ.
ESB has by far the best story. and of course the Imperial March!
and ANH was a very good introductory film! a really love the whole Mos Eisely part.:D
Return of the Jedi is my favorite, but that doesn't say much since I love them all.
Return of The Jedi is basically my favorite because of the Luke and Vader duel. It is one of the most emotional scenes out of all of the Star Wars films, and the saber fighting is just awesome. It is my favorite saber fight by far. The OT duels went by too fast IMO.
Also, the Battle of Endor was flat out fantastic. I'm truly amazed Lucas was able to pull off something so dificult back then.
Um ckcsaber, just a question, are you from the area around northfield and faraboult Minnesota?
for me they're all pretty equal, maybe i like ESB alittle more for the duel

:confused: No way. Never been to Minnesota all my life. I'm currently living down in Virginia.
Why do you ask??
just the RIP freddie thing, kid in Faraboult named freddie was in a gang fight and got killed so now a bunch of ppl have RIP freddie on the cars and stuff
He is reffering to Freddie Mercury of Queen fame.
Good Jobe leXX:D
Yup, my title is regarding to Freddie Mercury, who was the lead singer of Queen. He was a great singer, and sadly died of Aids in 91'.
When I was litle it was ROTJ because of the Ewoks.
Now I'd have to say ESB.
ROTJ all the way!
that was funny, and i loved the speeder bikes
who wouldnt like rotj i mean who wouldnt like watching ewoks beat the crap out of stormtroopers with rocks! and the emotional tension was great too.
All I know is that AOTC comes first and I can't pick between the others, so I did eeny meeny minie moe. I came up with ESB.
thats one way to do it...
The Empire Striked Back because the Empire kicked some serious ass but i do like Return of the Jedi but i like the Empire Striked Back better.
Hard to make a choice, they're all good but ROTJ is the best. I like all the battles!!:cool:
Mine has to be ANH but i like all the star wars movies so much ;)
ESB is definitely my favourite. It seemed a lot stronger in terms of plot, battles, pace, locations and performance, in my view.
Of course, I still immensely enjoy the other two in the classic trilogy. :)
Return of the Jedi is my favorite. Jabba's Palace, Saralacc Pitt, the death of Yoda, Battle of Endor in space and on the planet. Plus, seeing death star II explode. What else can you say?
I don't know why, but I like ESB.
Empire Strikes Back is the best by a mile. I never liked ROTJ, it was so forced, the Emperor was changed from cunning evil to evil evil, Carrie Fisher's acting was off, the speeder bikes went at 1000 miles an hour (I'm totally truthful on this, it was nearly as bad as that) and it takes Luke a couple of minutes to walk back, bloody giant bridge explosions, Yoda dies, inferior plot, stupid Second Death Star idea, ewoks (teddy bears) overcoming Imperial Troops (battle-hardened kickass troops) getting their ass whooped, no funny dialogue between Leia and Han, flawed Jabba (another evil evil character, seems George Lucas needs to simplify things), flawed Jabba's palace, good Sarlacc idea ruined by clumsy jumps, non-scary noises, and not large or flapping enough tentacles, Lando looks stupid in General outfit, Darth Vader now totally pathetic and unscary, ground battle of Endor cringe-inducing.
On the bright side, great music, Admiral Ackbar and that brilliant Mon Cal cruiser ship, amazing music in Vader vs Luke, and great explosions and co. in Second Death Star battle.
I Love them all but, Empire Strikes Back was by far my favorite.
personally, i like rotj for it's plot contributions (eg battle of endor) but i honestly think esb was better, by far, as a movie.
My favorite movie is Return of the Jedi, although I really liked the first Death Star Scene in A New Hope. Empire Strikes Back wasn't that great since Hoth wasn't that exciting other than seeing the AT-AT Walkers blasting the base into oblivion. :D
ESB was dark and moody, rock on \m/ :p
The Empire Strikes back was one of the most impressive movies of the first trilogy.
although I love all of the movies of the first trilogy!
But you know...in the second movie there's so much told about the force...in no other movie the relationship between master and padawan and the teaching of the force is so detailed than in The Empire strikes back. That is cool:D
of course i cannot choose....:p
my favorite would have to be return of the jedi but i love them all almost equally
I love ESB but I love RotJ that little bit more, the Special Edition ending was cool, and I loved the Saber duel and watching Anakin come back to the light.
A New Hope, but ROTJ is a VERY close second.
I never liked ESB as much as the other two but I still ike it a lot, and a lot more than any other movie I've ever seen. (Han gets frozen! Oh no!)
Personally I think the Dagobah scenes bring ESB down, they spend way too much time there and I find it boring at times, but thats just me....
...I don't dislike RotJ as much as rad-x... but I certainly think it's inferior to the other movies. It would have been much better if Lucas could have set the final battle on and over Imperial City as he originally intended :(
So... my favorite of the OT is ESB. The atmosphere of ESB is just haunting, and I've gotta think Lucas will be shooting for that same feeling in Episode III.
My favourite has always been Return of the Jedi.
ROTJ :D luke vs. vader.... that was amazing!
main thing... i didnt like the ewoks either.. i mean.. little bears beating up what the emperor called 'an entire legion of my best troops...' i mean.. come on... what would win in real life, a blaster, or a rock?
No way. Never been to Minnesota all my life. I'm currently living down in Virginia.
whoa virginia... im in virginia! :)
