In Reply to: Well, rico, you do have a point, but I also like episodes 5 & 6 as well; especially 5. posted by Audiophilander on February 10, 2004 at 12:01:27:
When those Ewoks arrived in Episode VI I gave up. Power and majesty indeed.
Follow Ups:
...don't you think? You see, IMHO, the wheels started coming off of the Star Wars saga in the third film (VI); it held up well enough, but I was left with the impression that Lucas started aiming for a more family friendly audience in The Return of The Jedi, not that the other two weren't wholesome enough. I just couldn't shake the feeling that Lucas was carefully avoiding any action scenes (i.e., close-ups, especially) that might be construed as a bit violent or excessively gorey for very young viewers. This stripped a lot of the emotional content away for college kids and hip young adults because one rarely feels that the heroes are in any REAL jeopardy; for whatever reason, that was NOT the case in the first two films.Of course, this is just my opinion; YMMV, and it has been quite awhile since I viewed all three films back to back.
Cheers,

and except for the Emperor character the whole "Reurn..." episode has a completely different feel than the two that proceeded it. In retrospect, I think that "The Empire Strikes Back" was successful in its mission, that is to expand the story, develop the characters further, add new characters, and have a "serial" like "ending" that left you wanting more but satisfied at the same time.
