It's time to discuss a truly important issue: Which of the original 3 Star Wars movies do you like the best?

In my experience, most guys tend to like empire strikes back the best and most girls favor return of the jedi (which in my opinion was very hokey, unrealistic and predictable).
I'm sure LukeSkywalker will have some input on this one.

I've always liked The Empire Strikes Back the best because it's the darkest and the most mystical (Luke seeing himself as Darth Vader in the Dagobah cave, Luke and Leia's telepathy in Cloud City, using the force to pick up the lightsaber and escape from the snow beast, the awesome dual with Darth Vader with lots of telekinetically thrown objects, the symbolic sacrifice of Han, and the simple badass presence of the original Boba Fett). A friend that I've known for 20 years has always liked A New Hope better, much to my dismay. I think he is just dazzled by the technology of the Death Star, whereas I'm looking for a spiritual journey.
I like the beginning of Return of the Jedi (Jabba's palace without the special edition muppet additions), but then the rest of the film seems to drag in my opinion and the Ewoks are kind of cheesy.
