The Empire Strikes Back (DVD, 2006, 2-Disc Limited Edition; Widescreen)

The Empire Strikes Back is, and has always been, in my opinion the best Star Wars film ever made. I love the writing, the characters, the darker feel, the story line, the emotional impact of this film. It is simply incredible.

And this version on DVD is the greatest. Here, you have the film unaltered. The original, beautiful film.

I do not fault George Lucas for making changes to the original Star Wars films. I loved the chance to see them on the big screen in 1997. He is the creator of the Star Wars universe. He loves the story, the characters; he loves Star Wars. And if he wants to go back to these films he truly cares about and make changes, I say more power to him. To continue to work with something that makes you happy is a cool thing.

The trilogy I grew up with is the trilogy I fell in love with. And so, for me, the unaltered trilogy is the only way to go. It is something very special. I had owned the films on VHS. As I mentioned earlier, I don't fault Lucas for making changes in his films, but I was not personally interested in owning the special edition films. I accepted the fact that I would only ever have the original Star Wars on video tape, fullframe. But then I heard the news that the Trilogy finally would be released unaltered, and my heart sang for joy. One of the best additions to my movie collection has been The Empire Strikes Back - the limited edition DVD.

I think of the original trilogy movies this one shows the true dynamic of the galaxy under imperial rule. It shows what is done by the real "good guys" and why they need to do something about their situation. But the best part about 'Empire' is the further character development of Han solo. This film proves how cool he was. When my wife tells me "I love you" and I say "I know", I get something thrown at me. Han got away with it, thats cool.

The classic film is timeless and fun no matter how many times you've seen it...The cast and story are exciting and fresh even if you've seen the film over 100 times, as I have...The is a Must DVD for anyones collection!!!

I love buying from E Bay and This purchase was very good I bought it for my grandson and he was very happy with it .

One of the better chapters of the Star Wars saga.

The Empire Strikes Back is commonly thought of as the best film in the series. For the sheer scope of the film it beats the other films that follow by a long way. It builds wonderfully on the original film but falls a bit short in youthful wonderment. This is a great film and kids will love it, but for a regular 10 year old nothing beats the the first film.

Great seller, exceptional prices, and extremely fast shipping! I highly recommend this seller! I liked the condition of the item, I like the speed of the shipping, and I bought it because the price was cheaper with shipping, than going to the store.

Everybody loves Star Wars! I especially like this one. Item arrived quickly, new and unopened as advertised. Recommend this seller!
