:/ Yeah Star Wars had some great lines. "I find your lack of faith disturbing." That with JEJ's voice behind it is on its own level. After these last six years I'm truly just happy that I can watch esb and not hear "Mesa don't like sand, it'sa very rough and gets in mesa crotch..."

The worst line from empire i can think of was... luke's scream in the special edition. Absolutely horrid. It moreso depends on the performer too I guess because I don't pay much attention to the writing unless it's really terrible. There's a part where a bad actor gets to speak and he sounds as dead as a Hayden Christensen. It always makes me cringe.

My fav character was Lando simply because of how smooth he was. I guess he and yod added something to the genuine feeling of history the characters had in the star wars universe, before we actually saw that history anyway. Even if he really said all this stuff, he'd still be cool to me Landoooooo . Both have a history with one of the characters from the first movie... so I guess that's an interesting parallel: Luke going to meet an old jedi master, Han going to meet an old friend, both being hunted by the empire...

I'm surprised there wasn't a young lando in one of the new movies. He's such an important character... way moreso than boba.
