    Only one other person in all of my life has mentioned why this is the best Star Wars movie: Brandon Sanderson. While a not a total fan of his work (though I do enjoy the Stormlight Archives), his thought's mirrored my own on why, since I saw it as a child in the 90s, this movie was able to outshine the others, despite the Ewoks and the ghosts of the dead. This movie finished the tale. The hero's journey ended here, and ended in way that culminated the themes of what the Dark side and the Light side will always clash over; ended in way that described what Luke had gone through, and what Vader always needed. The final battle scene between Luke and Vader is one of the most emotional scenes in the entire franchise, if not the most. We see what could push a hero to failure. We see also what distinguishes the hero from just any other character, and this is illustrated in both Luke and Vader. We see what love will do to even the best among us. This, to me, is the best writing George has ever done, and it seems that it will go unnoticed by most.

    Luke Skywalker senelessly murders a frog and meets up with some care bears to destroy the death star that was in the Emperor's other pants pocket. Princess Leia is also there with one single suspicously long fingernail.

    Perfectly captures a sense of wonder, excitement, and adventure. Deliverers a satisfying and emotional conclusion to the characters' arcs, while emphasizing themes of hope, friendship, and the possibility of redemption.

    Only the first 3 movies are canon to me. Harmy's DESPECIALIZED EDITION all the way. George Lucas started wrecking his own creation after he learned about PS2 graphics for his "Special Edition"

    Star Wars: Return of the Jedi still holds up as a great movie on rewatch! Positives: - The movie is well made, well directed, well paced, well edited, and well shot - The movie visually looks really good for it’s time - The score is incredible - The movie is a great conclusion to the trilogy - The performances are once again great - The characters are a lot of fun to be around - There are a couple great character arks to close out the trilogy - The action sequences are greatly executed - The film does a good job at letting you know this is the last film in the trilogy - The final Ariel battle and the Darth Vader Vs. Luke Skywalker battle was perfectly executed! Negatives: - The movie does drag on for a little bit but doesn’t affect the movie a whole bunch - The final battle on Endor is pretty ridiculous and dumb - The movie is also pretty slow Overall Star Wars: Return of the Jedi still holds up as a great movie on rewatch!
