http://io9.com/5619137/25-classic-scien ... socialflow13) Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back (1980, dir. Irvin Kerschner).
This is the first of three sequels that came out in the early 1980s that were better than the films they followed, but which also innovated in a way that their precursors didn’t. Not that the original Star Wars wasn’t innovative — it was, in many ways, including its breathtaking effects, its fresh take on Western and Samurai themes, and its exhilerating approach to space opera. But Empire Strikes Back took all of the formal brilliance of Star Wars and married it to a story that feels truly epic. Luke Skywalker’s journey in the film, from near-death on Hoth to confronting his own darkness on Dagobah to learning the truth on Bespin — this is a real voyage of discovery. You couldn’t skip any of those steps and have it still work. All our other heroes struggle with tragedy and adversity — especially Han Solo — and it makes them deeper and more magnetic as characters. This isn’t just the best Star Wars movie, it’s one of the most essential movies, in any genre.
The force – of Chicago's City Council, at least – is with George Lucas, as aldermen voted Wednesday to allow the Star Wars filmmaker to build his US$400 million (NZ$599 million) museum along the shores of Lake Michigan.
