Gaffer Tape said:CO said:I think what character you loved said alot about what SW movie was your favorite. As a kid, I wanted to be Luke Skywalker, he was me, and I related to him, so essentially SW was my favorite movie, and ROTJ was a close second.
As I got older I realized how f-n cool Han Solo was, and in that time I realized how great ESB was. But my friends growing up who loved Han Solo more then Luke were bigger fans of ESB then I was back in 1980.
Really? Cause Luke's always been my favorite too. I thought Luke had quite a lot to do as a character in ESB, so I'm curious: how come being a Luke fan would cause you to like the other movies more? I suppose I'm asking, what makes the outer movies "Luke" movies to you and ESB a "Han" movie?
I was a Luke guy too, and I though the coolest Luke stuff was in ESB. It is also the movie that opens with him. He gets hung upside down in an ice cave, that was great. He almost gets eaten by Bigfoot (also known as the Hothian Plains Yeti, or the Wampa) He gets stuffed inside of an animal (my mom yelled at me once because I kept using the rewind button to watch Han cut open the Tauntaun over and over for almost ten minutes straight, not sure what was wrong with me, but it really freaked my mom out). Then Luke crashes on a really cool planet, meets a muppet and trains to be a super cool Jedi. Not long later, he discovers he has daddy issues, and loses his hand.
Han just spends the whole film turning tail and running, only to eventually be betrayed like a bitch by one of his old friends, then get frozen alive in a block of something, and sold to a giant slug. I think all the cool stuff happens to Luke in that movie.
