Truly great movies can leave indelible marks. It may be through an emotional connection to the story. It may be through a remarkable performance or a signature scene. But it could also be through the brilliant imagery a film can carve into your mind. That’s what this feature is all about – highlighting great images from great movies. Today we look at one of my all-time favorites and one of the best sequels ever made, “The Empire Strikes Back”.
I adore “The Empire Strikes Back”. How about you? What are some of your favorite scenes from this sci-fi classic?

I really loved the last shot, after a very dark set of events, there was a hopefulness about that scene that still gives me chills. Great movie .
Same here. I vividly remember first seeing that shot as a kid. I kept saying “It can’t be over. They have to save Han. It can’t be over.”
To me, still the definitive film of the Star Wars franchise. I still have a digital copy of the original version though the “remastered” version doesn’t do much to deter from the original.
Oh it’s so good. I’m with you, it remains my very favorite of the franchise. It never gets old and I still remember the effect it had on me as a kid.
Cool!
I remember coming back from school and watching the VHS of The empire strikes back while having lunch… I must have seen it a hundred times!
It’s great to see so many good moments all at once in a post!
Great story. I can’t tell you how many times we watched the original trilogy on VHS. It’s funny, I don’t watch movies over and over to the same degree as I once did. There was I time where my brother and I would watch it three or four times a week. HA!
Me too! I think the reason is simple: today we have access to an infinite amount of resources (movies, music…), back in the day it was different!
It really was. Great point.
