Empire Strikes Back is one of the main examples of a sequel better than the original. This movie starts strong with the Battle of Hoth and grips onto your imagination and never lets go. With the introduction of the incredibly wise Yoda and my favourite Star Wars character, Boba Fett.

This movie ends with the greatest plot twist ever put on screen. Fortunately, Empire was the least changed out of the original Star Wars trilogy in the Special Editions, with the positive change being able to see the Wampa.

Lucas probably understood that Empire was already a perfect movie and didn't need CGIbominations in every shot.
