Star Wars Five - The Empire Strikes Back
Polished, well paced and probably the best of the original trilogy. Then you realise that it wasn't directed by Lucas, but by one of his Film Professors. He can't leave it alone though, can he? The special edition contains a hideously re-worked scene to bring it in line with the prequels, but that's the extent of his meddling. Great character developments, special effects and performances - isn't it amazing what Frank Oz can do if you give him a muppet?
