ESB gets a 9 for me! Its the best out of the original trilogy, and suprisingly, the one that wasnt fully directed by George Lucas.

10/10. This movie IS Star Wars. It has everything. Best characterizations. Best starship battle. Best romance. Best climax and twist. Best lightsaber dual. This movie set the standard for the Star Wars franchise and it has never or ever will be eclipsed.

I gave it a solid 10.  ESB ties as my number one favorite Star Wars film.  The other Star Wars film that it ties with for me is ROTS.  Plus ROTS mirrors ESB in a lot of ways.

This was an excellent film, gotta be one of my favorites. I cannot bring myself to give it a 10 because there was not enough lightsaber stuff, and it had some older glitches and such from the 70s/80s movie era that still bug me.

10 ESB is very Cool and could easily stand on it's own,There's a lot of sequels that can't do that.It had the cliffhanger mode all throughout the movie.It's my favorite movie out of the OT ;D

This was my third favorite SW movie. Typically because they kept action flowing through the whole movie. The best part in my opinion was the Hoth battle. I didn't care for the part with Yoda up until he lifts Luke's fighter out of the lake. ;D

9/10

one thing that bothers me, on the new DVD version, they redid the scene with vader talking to the emperor via hologram:
in the DVD version, the emperor tells vader that the kid who blew up the death star was the son of skywalker and vader says..
"..How Can This Be!?" as if he's hearing of it for the first time.


BUT, 

earlier in the film they LEFT the scene where Vader tells General Veers: "..thats it.  the rebels are there."
Veers:"My Lord. There are so many uncharted settlements.  it could be smugglers, it could be.."
Vader: "THAT is the system.  and I'm sure SKYWALKER is with them!"

 ::)

--> if Vader (and the entire imperial navy) was already looking for "Skywalker" then why would Vader be so surprised to learn of the kid's existence 1/2way through the film,

and/or,

--> if Vader (and the entire imperial navy) was already looking for "Skywalker" then why was the Emperor the last in the entire fleet to know about it? only sensing the kid's existence 1/2way through the film? (and looking like a bit of a Moron, quite frankly,  by calling long distance to "tell" vader something he already knew. and this is the first historical appearance of the emperor and, what..? is he supposed to be 'senile' now? is that really supposed to be our first impression of the emperor in the OT? some guy who only clues into what his ENTIRE FLEET is up to, after the fact? and then acts like its HIS idea?)  :-\




at least the original edit made it seem like they both already knew about Luke, but, suddenly, the "Great Disturbance" came from the fact that Luke had gone to dagobah and found yoda and was now on the path to becoming a jedi, which had only jus5t happened in a previous scene.  (hello!)  the point of the long distance call was:  "...I sense that [skywalker is becoming a powerful threat BECAUSE of events elsewhere in the movie]; the kid must not become a jedi" and the discussion ensues from there: "He's just a boy" etc.

it all makes sense, within the context of its own plot.

but, by rewriting the scene just for the sake of tying it into the PT, the 'new' ESB doesn't make sense anymore. 

unless we consider that the Emperor is now Mr. Magoo.  ::)

I could be very wrong but I always took the "..How Can This Be!?" line to be an expression of shock, as "how can this be that I didn't sense this myself?", as oppose to questioning, even rhetorically, the veracity of the statement.
