It had been a while since I’d seen Star Wars, and so I decided I’d throw them on in the background over a few days to get back into them.
Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back were as good as I remember them, but part of the way through Empire (and maybe due to my doing other things at the same time as the film was playing), I got to speculating about what it might be like if Return of the Jedi didn’t exist. It was interesting. For me, Jedi has always been there growing up. The movies always came as a set of three, so I never really stopped to speculate about what could happen in a hypothetical not-Jedi third film. It was interesting.
JEDIT: Oh neat, 10,000 movie posts.
I’m watching Jedi tonight. It’s not bad, as usual. But it could have been so much more.
