STAR WARS: EPISODE V - THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK

PEAK CINEMA#1: THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK (1980)

After the heroic actions of Luke Skywalker in Episode IV: A New Hope, the rebellion founds itself once again fighting against the Empire, lead by the soulless Lord Vader, in it´s crusade to destroy the remaining ashes of hope in the galaxy.

Some iconic quotes from the movie:

1. “There isn’t enough life on this ice cube to fill a space cruiser.” – Han Solo

Ah, that ol’ Han Solo brashness comes out as soon as the movie starts. Not only does this conversation tell us a little bit about the rebels’ new hidden base, this easy back and forth shows that Han and Luke have formed a real friendship in the past three years.

2. “A death mark’s not an easy thing to live with.” – General Rieekan

General Rieekan states the obvious. It’s also a good reminder that Jabba the Hutt hasn’t forgotten about Han Solo — or the credits he’s owed.

3. “Yes, Your Highnessness?” – Han Solo

Han Solo and Leia Organa continue their quippy jabs at each other from A New Hope, even when it looks like they may be parting ways. There’s a lot of emotion brimming under their bickering.

Writer and Creator: George Lucas

Why do I think this is PEAK CINEMA?

As a die-hard fan of Star Wars, this movie is just on another level. George Lucas simply cleared the floor with this one by taking all the elements that make a movie good, give it the Star Wars personality, and deviler it with breathtaking music, lovely performances, perfect setting, unique cinematography, and over all, a continuation to a infinite universe we all love. This movie shows the dark and light fight in a personal way through people and how love rules everyones actions. This is why I think this movie is...PEAK CINEMA.
