Star Wars: Episode VI — Return of the Jedi
Best: There are some cool action scenes in Return of the Jedi. The entire opening of the film is like a mini-adventure with the gang as they rescue Han Solo from Jabba. Fun stuff!
But the best bit is at the end, after Luke has cut off Vader’s arm and he realizes he’s going down the same path as his dad. In that moment he throws down his lightsaber and tells the Emperor he’ll never fall to the Dark Side and that he’s a Jedi, just like his father was. He wins not by being a badass warrior, but through love and sacrifice. (See angry fans, this has always been the point of these movies!)
Worst: Hey, what the Hell happened to Chewbacca’s hair in this film? I get it was the ‘80s, but it looks so bad. People always bag on the Ewoks, but they were fine and showed that anyone can rise up and defeat evil, even tiny teddy bears on a forest moon. All you have to do is fight. What’s not fine is Chewbacca’s fur. Awful.
